BlockBeats News, on December 12th, Aztec, a privacy and scaling solution based on ZK Rollup, announced that it has entered the Alpha phase and launched the Aztec Sandbox Alpha program for all developers. Prior experience with Noir, Aztec, or Sandbox is preferred but not required. As previously reported by BlockBeats, on September 20th, Aztec launched the Aztec Sandbox, a local developer testnet for smart contract privacy. Aztec Sandbox is a comprehensive version that provides developers with a fast and lightweight local Aztec node, similar to Ethereum's Ganache or Anvil local node package. In addition to the local node testing environment, Aztec Sandbox also includes tools and frameworks that allow developers to write and test smart contracts.
