Day 2 at Breakpoint in Abu Dhabi. Spent time with privacy-focused teams, explained our approach to anyone curious about confidential computing on Solana, and connected with protocols exploring privacy integrations.

Arcium had custom Seeker cases at their booth. If you picked one up, you're holding a piece of hardware that represents what we're building: privacy you can actually touch.

Conference conversations matter. Some of the integrations we're announcing started with a 10-minute chat at an event like this.

First IRL gathering. Invited fintech operators and privacy builders in Abu Dhabi for an afternoon conversation about where privacy infrastructure is heading.

No presentations, no pitches. Just people working on privacy in different contexts, sharing what they're building and what problems they're hitting. The kind of conversation where you leave with three new ideas and two potential collaborations.

We're calling these Encrypted Teas. Small groups, focused discussions, actual signal. Planning more across different cities as mainnet approaches.
