Aztec Reaches L2Beat Stage 2 After Governance Revokes Rollup Contract OwnershipDeck:** On-chain governance stripped admin control over Aztec's rollup contract, freezing the code in place and clearing the technical bar for L2Beat's top decentralization tier.

Privacy-focused Ethereum layer-2 Aztec said it reached Stage 2 on L2Beat, the highest decentralization rating the rollup tracker assigns. The milestone followed an on-chain governance action that revoked ownership of the rollup contract.

Aztec announced the change Monday afternoon on X. Revoking ownership made the contract code immutable, the network said, leaving no admin able to override the protocol and preserving an escape hatch through which users can always exit. Those three properties map directly to the conditions L2Beat sets for its top tier.

Code Frozen In Place
L2Beat's Stage 2 is the final rung on its maturity ladder, reserved for rollups fully governed by smart contracts rather than a privileged operator. The framework requires an immutable contract with no admin override, a permissionless proof system, and an exit window that lets users withdraw their funds if they object to an upgrade. L2Beat's project page lists Aztec at Stage 2.

Most rollups launch with what L2Beat calls training wheels: a multisig or security council that can pause the chain or push upgrades. Stage 2 removes that backstop. With ownership revoked, Aztec's rollup contract can no longer be changed by its deployers. The escape hatch is the user-side guarantee, a mechanism that lets holders withdraw to Ethereum even if the network's operators stop cooperating.

Privacy Pitch
Aztec described itself as the only decentralized L2 with privacy native to the protocol. The network runs an Ethereum layer-2 in which transaction privacy is built into the base layer rather than added by individual appli

Crypto grThree of the largest U.S. crypto advocacy organizations have urged Congress to pass legislation that would allow digital asset miners and stakers to defer taxation on newly created tokens until those assets are sold.

In a joint letter sent to the House Ways and Means Committee, the Blockchain Association, Crypto Council for Innovation and The Digital Chamber voiced support for H.R. 9175, the Tax Clarity for Mining and Staking Act, and called on lawmakers to approve the bill as introduced.

The groups described the proposal as a “balanced compromise” that would address years of uncertainty surrounding the taxation of mining and staking rewards while preserving eventual income recognition.oups back bill allowing miners and stakers to defer taxes until sale

New York, Maryland and Utah to hold primaries with crypto PAC money hanging over votersPolitical action committees (PACs) backed by cryptocurrency companies and aligned interest groups have bet more than $8 million to support candidates in Tuesday’s primaries across three US states, which could impact the makeup of the country’s Congress in 2027.

As of Monday, the Protect Progress PAC, an affiliate of Fairshake that supports Democratic candidates, reported spending more than $516,000 on media for April McClain Delaney, running in Maryland’s 6th congressional district. However, much of the PAC’s attention has been focused on two races in Maryland and New York, where it reported combined expenditures of more than $5.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for primary races in the states’ 5th and 15th congressional districts, for Adrian Boafo and Ritchie Torres.

Filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) showed that Protect Progress had spent about $24,000 on ads to oppose Quincy Bareebe and $74,000 for media opposing Harry Dunn, both running against Boafo in Maryland’s 5th district. Dunn and Bareebe, along with Rushern Baker, who is running in the same primary, issued a statement on June 15 against what they called the “influence of dark money and special interests” in the race:

“We are calling on Governor Moore, Senator Alsobrooks, and Congressman Hoyer to answer directly: Do you support nearly $8 million in outside spending from crypto billionaires and AIPAC in a Maryland Democratic primary? If not, they should say so publicly and call on Adrian Boafo to reject it.”
Defend American Jobs, another Fairshake affiliate, reported spending more than $400,000 on Republican Blake Moore’s primary in Utah’s 2nd congressional district. All expenditures followed what a Fairshake spokesperson called the “biggest spend of the cyc

Alphabet shares fell as investors worried about Google’s AI talent lossesAlphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) is falling today because Wall Street is suddenly staring at three ugly things at once: Google is losing major AI people, rivals are getting louder in the AI race, and the company is spending eye-watering money to keep up.

The stock fell by approximately 7 percent by the closing bell on Monday, making it its biggest one-day decline in about a year.

On Tuesday, investors will be looking to see if Google can retain its top talent, defend its Gemini strategy, and generate value from large-scale investments in artificial intelligence before its margins look sloppy.

Google loses key AI figures as competition continues to poach talent
The first issue here is talent. Just last week, Noam Shazeer, Google’s vice president of engineering and one of the architects behind the Gemini AI model, announced he was moving on to join OpenAI. This is not a trivial move either, as Noam had only joined Google less than two years ago, which means that it could give investors cause for concern and make them wonder about the situation inside the company.

Namely, he had come back in August 2024 together with researcher Daniel De Freitas as part of the partnership between Google and Character.AI. Together, the two of them had founded Character.AI after quitting Google back in 2021. They were supposed to beef up DeepMind, Google’s major AI engine. Now one of the two key figures has left once more.

This move comes at a particularly bad time. Google had recently shown its new AI offerings at its annual I/O developer conference, revealing its latest creations, such as Gemini 3.5 Flash and the Gemini Spark AI agent. So instead of discussing their new offerings, investors will also be interested in who leaves them.

Ethereum Battles to Surpass Critical Pricing Barrier
Ethereum is under scrutiny as its attempts to break past the crucial $1,800 mark remain fruitless after previously losing this level as a support. Staying below this resistance level keeps market watchers on edge, as they assess whether this cryptocurrency can gather traction or falter further. The inability to progress above $1,800 continues to fuel debates among enthusiasts and traders alike regarding Ethereum’s potential movements.
