From preparing for Aventurine to empowering $gZIL holders, we’re making strides toward mass adoption with Zilliqa 2.0.

Let’s dive into the highlights for November:

Preparing for Aventurine

We’ve sunsetted the Jasper proto-testnet to pave way for the launch of Aventurine! This next step in Zilliqa 2.0 brings a robust testing environment for developers and users. Technical launch is soon, public release to follow.

Empowering gZIL Holders

We are creating a community fund for $gZIL token holders to manage! Surplus rewards from the mining halving will fuel projects chosen by the community through decentralised governance.

Web3Auth integrated with Zilliqa 2.0

Web3Auth is now integrated with the Zilliqa 2.0 proto-testnet! This allows wallet creation via social logins or email, lowering onboarding barriers for users.

ZIL Perpetual Futures on Kraken Pro

ZIL perpetual futures are live on Kraken Pro, one of the biggest exchanges in the US and the world. Start trading now!

From Devcon to ETH Riyadh

Last month, Zilliqa shined at Devcon2024!

Up next: ETHRiyadh from Dec 1–3, where we’ll share how Zilliqa 2.0 is unlocking new opportunities in the EVM ecosystem.
