Aztec Labs has acquired ZKPassport, a privacy-focused passport-scanning app that proves identity attributes without revealing personal data, while keeping the iOS app and its cryptographic circuits fully open source. The acquisition strengthens Aztec's privacy network by integrating ZKPassport's technology, which has already been validated in production during Aztec's December 2025 token sale for compliant sanctions checks. This move supports Aztec's vision of programmable privacy and compliant, privacy-preserving on-chain identity, consolidating key identity verification tools under one team but maintaining open access for developers. The deal also positions Aztec Labs strongly in the growing market for privacy-preserving identity solutions, emphasizing composability over exclusivity.
