In this episode of Milk Road Crypto, John Gillen sits down with Joe Andrews, co-founder and CEO of Aztec Labs, to break down the return of ZK.money, Aztec’s privacy-focused Ethereum Layer 2, and why programmable privacy could become one of the most important pieces of crypto infrastructure.

Wyatt explains why DeFi may no longer have an infrastructure problem; it has an asset-quality problem. As more high-quality assets move onchain, from tokenized Treasuries and private credit to real estate and other yield-bearing products, DeFi could begin attracting a much stickier and more institutional pool of capital.
