Zilliqa 2.0 Weekly Update - May 28th, 2025

⚙️ Recent improvements have significantly strengthened the handling of large Scilla transactions that consume gas up to the block limit. While these transactions are now more robustly supported, they will inevitably lead to longer block times post-launch due to their complexity.

📊 The issue of nodes visible on the Zilstats dashboard being overwhelmed was traced to the Zilstats agent sending an excessive number of RPC requests. This has now been mitigated, and a new version of the agent has been released.

🧱 A recent hard fork has increased the amount of funds available to onboard new validators to the proto-mainnet.

🧪 The next testing focus will be on large reward-claiming transactions. Initial testing will be conducted internally, followed by community participation in public tests. Once this phase is successfully completed, we will announce the new launch date with a minimum of 10 days' notice.

Thank you for your continued support as we move steadily towards the Zilliqa 2.0 launch.
