A new Zilliqa Improvement Proposal (ZIP-21) has just been published, detailing how Zilliqa EVM can invoke fungible token contracts written in Scilla.

This means that ZRC-2 tokens can now appear as ERC-20 tokens to other contracts, bringing improved interoperability to the Zilliqa EVM network and allowing fungible tokens written in Scilla to be transacted as EVM-compatible tokens.

To learn out more about the Zilliqa EVM's support for fungible Scilla tokens, check out our blog: blog.zilliqa.com/zilliqa-evm-now-supports-fungible-scilla-tokens/

July was an important month for Zilliqa, marking the 6th anniversary of the blockchain and seeing a number of important steps forward for the network being made.

These included two major proposals being passed to deliver more sustainable rewards and governance, enhanced interoperability between Scilla and EVM , and the rollout of the first-ever Zilliqa debit cards.

"July was an important month for Zilliqa, marking the sixth anniversary since we first introduced Zilliqa to the world," says Zilliqa CEO Matt Dyer.

"We’ve achieved a lot during that period, but believe me when I say we are just getting started and I am beyond excited to see the development of the network and its ecosystem continuing to progress so well."

Exciting News for the Zilliqa Community!

Two new governance proposals are now open for voting on Snapshot, with a focus on enhancing network efficiency and managing ZIL inflation as we move forward to Zilliqa 2.0.

The first proposal aims to temporarily eliminate shards until the more efficient sharding infrastructure is launched with Zilliqa 2.0. This move will significantly boost cost-efficiency and decentralisation in the interim.

Vote on the desharding proposal here: https://governance.zilliqa.com/#/gzil/proposal/QmUxaNzKVKjJLBF9RrGvRHvafzS5yFXgafr2ZHcumBUzLh

The second proposal introduces an active reward mechanism that guarantees competitive returns while effectively managing ZIL inflation. This innovative approach will enhance the sustainability of our network. 💰
