Automata’s Bi-Weekly Update: Issue 51
After months of work, we’re excited to finally announce the official launch of Automata 2.0. It’s all we’ve been talking about but in case you missed it, read more about it in our latest blog post. Beyond the black-and-white explanations, we also invite you to try the interactive Proof of Machinehood Demo — a firsthand Automata 2.0 experience. Apart from our major launch, we continue to expand support for our privacy-protecting relay, bringing the supported networks on 1RPC to 32.

Ecosystem
- Automata is now Automata 2.0 — Testnet is live. After months of work, we’re stoked to present our modular attestation layer to the Web3 community. Using optimistic rollups and ZK technology, we’ve built an application-specific rollup that allows on-chain verification for out-of-protocol computation. TL;DR read this thread.
- For a firsthand experience, try our Proof of Machinehood Demo where you can attest your very own hardware devices.
- With this launch, 1RPC has added support for Automata Testnet — https://1rpc.io/ata/testnet
- We’re also thrilled to add support for Scroll Sepolia testnet and Oasis Emerald & Sapphire on 1RPC.
Community
- To commemorate this significant milestone — the launch of Automata 2.0 — join the community and participate in our layer3 campaign.
- This launch also heralded the start of our very first — and long-awaited — community call, where Automata Co-founder Zheng Leong and Shawn from our BD team shared more about Automata 2.0 with our community on Discord.
- With Automata 2.0 going live, we’ve also given 1RPC a new home — follow 1RPC on X: https://twitter.com/1rpc_
- We continue to put out Privacy Matters, our Web3 privacy-focused newsletter, minted weekly. Catch up on the last two issues: #6 and #7
- It’s the month of September and TOKEN2049 Singapore is happening in a week. Join our side event, LayerUp, in collaboration with Moonbeam Network, Scroll, and Celer Network. It will be a day of in-person discussions about BUIDLing across layers in Web3.

About Automata Network
Automata Network is a modular attestation layer that extends machine-level trust to Ethereum by leveraging optimistic rollups and zero-knowledge proofs in its Proof of Machinehood approach. The application-specific rollup allows on-chain verification for out-of-protocol computation, which creates an unbroken chain of trust that extends upwards through the entire Web3 stack.
