  • Ethereum turns 10: A shared community campaign brought together ~400 projects to celebrate a decade of coordination, spotlighting builders, what we've achieved, and what’s next.

  • Private voting with MACI: Encrypted, zk‑verified ballots are now part of the Aragon stack: demo‑ready today and rolling out via bespoke builds. Apply privacy precisely where you need it.

  • New in the Aragon App: Permissions‑Based Access Control. Grant function‑level permissions to the exact address, council, or workflow that needs them, no Solidity required.

  • Public Good Games → Onchain Impact Evaluators: CTO Carlos (@0xPaella) unpacks how Impact Evaluators can curb free-riding and make public-goods funding verifiable onchain, bridging game theory with practical onchain tooling.

  • Product Digest #003: A quick sweep of August improvements: private voting, fine‑grained permissions, and UX polish across the app and governance flows.

  • Community & Media: CEO Anthony Leutenegger (@a_leutenegger) on the future of governance; “This Week at Aragon” spotlights and our latest releases.

Run encrypted, zk‑verified votes with receipt‑free ballots, keeping sensitive choices private while preserving verifiability. The plugin is demo‑ready and shipping first through bespoke builds before wider release. Ideal for grants, hiring, and votes where coercion resistance matters.

Highlights

  • Apply privacy to specific proposal types while keeping other votes transparent.

  • Protect voters from bribery/coercion with receipt‑free ballots.

  • Verifiable outcomes using zk‑proofs.

Modular, no-code separation of powers:

  • Assign function‑level permissions (e.g., only a treasury council can execute(); only tokenholders can upgrade()).

  • Grant access to any address (EOA, Safe, contract, or role) without touching Solidity.

  • Cleaner proposal views with a unified “All proposals” overview for quick scanning across flows.

We’ve been hard at work shipping, and not just products. It’s *almost* time we introduce you to some pretty major projects building on the Aragon stack. Almost.

Along with that, we’ve got big news coming up on the product side, too. Keep your eyes peeled, and we’ll catch you next month.

See you onchain 👋
