- `state-separation-architecture-poc:validium`

  - Tried to run Nomos validium example on my machine anddid not succeeded. Also tried to run the local testnet and if was so difficult. Contacted Nomos and spent a significant amount of time to solve the issue. Problem is that they don’t have an image for macOs and had to configure mostly everything manually.
  - Worked with Sergio on understanding how sovreign rollup examples are built and implemented in Nomos. Went through some documentation and code figured out how it works.
  - Went through Celestia to understand how DA works.
  - Wrote a small document about Validium, Nomos, and result interpretation.

- `state-separation-architecture-poc:cpc`

  - Researched how to make cross program calls work on NSSA. Finally, came up with a high level way to do it and discussed it briefly with Sergio.
  - Worked on expanding the idea and the plan is to have a first version next week.
  - Dived into the details of the Nomos validium and rollup examples.
  - Ran a Nomos local testnet and learned how to disperse data into NomosDA.

- `vac:nes:2025q3:state-separation-architecture-poc:wallet-2`

  - Addressed the comments of PR 115 discussion in PR 119. While doing so I discovered some bugs and issues. Proposals to fix them are in
    - PR 119: wallet improvements and some protocol deviation fixes,
    - PR 120: inflation bug stemming from a missing check in the privacy circuit, and
    - PR 121: account uniqueness for private accounts mechanism.
