Aztec describes new routes into zk.money through Across

Aztec says zk.money can receive funds from Base, Arbitrum, HyperEVM and other EVM chains through Across, with withdrawals to an EVM chain chosen by the user.

Anonymous commuters move through a covered transfer passage on a rainy afternoon.

Aztec’s November 13 announcement describes cross-chain access to zk.money using Across. It names Base, Arbitrum and HyperEVM among the entry routes, and says users can withdraw to their chosen EVM chain. The post frames the activity within zk.money as private.

For product teams, the access layer is an important part of a privacy workflow: users need a route from the networks where they already hold assets. But a route announcement alone is not a complete privacy assessment. Deposit and withdrawal behavior, supported assets and the assumptions of each component still need to be understood before a business relies on the flow.

This is separate from the planned Privacy Pools connection discussed in the previous edition. The useful new information is Aztec’s own description of the Across integration, not evidence that every proposed private bridge has launched. Teams evaluating the feature should test the exact supported route and review the relevant security documentation; this report does not claim a completed transfer or independently audited anonymity.
