 ## Private State
 
-Every smart contract needs a way to track information over time - that's what state is. In order to have both private and public transactions and storage in Aztec, we have to have public and private state.

 Private state must be treated differently from public state and this must be expressed in the semantics of Aztec.nr.
 
 Private state is encrypted and therefore is "owned" by a user or a set of users (via shared secrets) that are able to decrypt the state.

 The act of "deleting" a private state variable can be represented by adding an associated nullifier to a nullifier set. The nullifier is generated such that, without knowing the decryption key of the owner, an observer cannot link a state record with a nullifier.
 
-Modification of state variables can be emulated by nullifying the a state record and creating a new record to represent the variable. Private state has an intrinsic UTXO structure and this must be represented in the language semantics of manipulating private state.
