I just bought some more base:0x11030f79109269d796fd0fb956d6244e502757f7 after researching #Crest... Good things are coming!! #DYOR latest news (September 2026)The most recent major announcement is that Citrea acquired Crest, a self-custodial private Bitcoin wallet, on September 23, 2026. Crest becomes Citrea’s flagship privacy product. Founder Meliksah Gurtemel joined as Product Lead. https://t.co/aEnD5RaLuf The goal is Zcash-style privacy for Bitcoin: auto-shielding, private BTC transfers, and a mobile wallet launching in the coming weeks. It will support cross-chain onboarding from Bitcoin and Ethereum, plus private swaps so shielded BTC can pay EVM addresses in USDC or ETH. Citrea frames this as making private Bitcoin the default, easy path rather than a specialist tool. https://t.co/8aKETRw0EE Around the same time, Citrea restored cross-chain transfers for assets including ctUSD, USDC, USDT, WBTC, and CTR after a third-party incident at Zentra Finance. Citrea said its core protocol and bridge were unaffected. https://t.co/qrNaqwwuP9 Citrea and Four Pillars are also hosting Institutional Privacy Day on September 30, 2026, with panels on privacy infrastructure and compliance-ready setups.
