On January 10th, Aleo Network announced that it will conduct its second stress test on January 15th, which will last for two weeks. The purpose of this round of testing is to test the limits and ensure clean and reliable code.

Programmable privacy network Aleo announced that as the main network launch approaches, three independent security companies, Trail of Bits, NCC Group, and zkSecurity, have been hired to audit Aleo's snarkOS and snarkVM to evaluate the security and integrity of the codebase. During the audit process, 31 issues were discovered and resolved by Aleo.

Odaily Planet Daily News reported that programmable privacy network Aleo posted on X platform, stating that it wants to clarify that there has been no official announcement about airdrops. Please be sure to carefully check the information released by Aleo's official channels and exercise caution before clicking on any links. Previously, Aleo stated that it is in the final stage of launching its testnet and expects the mainnet to be launched by the end of 2023. After the mainnet is launched, Aleo Systems will relinquish all control over the Aleo network, which will operate independently of its founding company, similar to other decentralized systems such as Ethereum (which would continue to exist even without the Ethereum Foundation).

Aleo blockchain has integrated the zero-knowledge privacy (ZKP) network zPass, which is a protocol designed to use zero-knowledge encryption technology to verify identity, allowing users to upload identity documents offline to a privacy server and share anonymous "evidence" with organizations. Therefore, these companies do not need to store this data themselves. Users who generate their own proof can accurately determine with whom they are sharing information and how much personal data they wish to disclose.
