Pushed privacy updates to sentry and feedback for private debit cards.

I’ve stayed in Slack and with counsel, trying to find a fair, written resolution because I believe in the team and wanted to keep this out of a public dogpile.
When legal threats were made, I moved everything to the lawyers and have stayed at that table, ready to clarify IP and economics properly.
I’m not going to argue contracts on X, but I remain willing to resolve this through proper legal and accounting channels and to make sure the community and team are taken care of.
But I have been waiting for someone to actually come to the table with me and so far only two people have actually come forward to talk.
This is a public statement on contributions, ownership, and transparency issues regarding the ZERA protocol and @ZeraLabs
Pat, Andreas, and Miha have been core contributors to the project for over a year. We are issuing this statement to clarify the record on code ownership, agreements, finances, and customer orders.
my outcome goals are to protect the project, create pace and balance that is good for my health to contribute and remove myself from day to day business management to write code only and be compensated as the OG w a small licensing or royatly fee from revenue. I have even been willing to do a single day transition with the whales to decentralize and protect the project or put it under a business leader who can take it farther than I can.
As for writing code I will still show up everyday and continue to build as my health allows.
@ZeraLabs
I will continue to work hard on this and build in a way that is a better in line with my health and help from places like @PerkinsFund have been kind enough to help find/bring in new people to expand opportunities. Changing management to actually build in a more sustainable way for my health. And I thank them.
I am still here and so are the whales we are still working and building releases... you all saw me build and deploy new stuff and the dectralization plan for the relayer earlier this week. Nothing is going anywhere. And yes we have internal disagreements and I am sick but still showing up so we are gonna keep on going and Monday whales and the chat and the socials will clarify exactly who is doing what.
So we wanna get rid of the whole relayer thing in privacy protocols... I made a demo and proof of concept we can roll into @ZeraLabs

I wrote about this kind of exploit 2 years ago even published demos for research

Someone hid a self-replicating worm inside 37 npm packages.
Written in Rust.
Hidden behind an eBPF kernel rootkit.
Talking to its operator over Tor.
It steals 86 environment variables.
AWS keys. GCP keys. Vault secrets. Kubernetes tokens.
Your Anthropic API key. Your OpenAI key.
Your Exodus wallet seed phrase.
Then it uses your own npm credentials to republish itself into your packages.
So your code infects the next developer.
Who infects the next one.
The commits were backdated up to 13 years.
The commit author name was “claude.”
The malware named itself after the AI to hide in plain sight.
The attacker also left their own wallet recovery phrase in the debug data.
Nobody is having a good day.
Check your preinstall hooks.
Deploying another pool! Fixing bugs... @ZeraLabs xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1RJjppaRz…
