✨As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to express our gratitude to our incredible community of supporters, builders, and visionaries. Thank you for being part of our journey.

Let’s make 2025 extraordinary—together. 🚀

As we close out 2024, we’re excited to share this month’s key highlights, including the launch of Aventurine, the final step towards Zilliqa 2.0 mainnet. Let’s take a look at the progress made and what’s coming in 2025!

Aventurine Launched

We successfully deployed Aventurine, the proto-testnet and proto-mainnet, marking the final milestone before Zilliqa 2.0’s mainnet launch. Aventurine gives developers a powerful testbed to prepare for the new Zilliqa network.

Preparing for Zilliqa 2.0 Mainnet

With Aventurine live, all focus shifts to the Agate mainnet launch in Q1 2025. The extension of the Aventurine testing phase ensures devs and dApps transition smoothly to Zilliqa 2.0

Empowering GZIL Holders

The community voted to form the GZIL Collective Committee, empowering GZIL holders to allocate funds for Zilliqa ecosystem growth. This is community-driven innovation at its best!

Partnering with Brillion

Zilliqa has partnered with Brillion to bridge real-world assets (RWAs) and DeFi to the new Zilliqa 2.0 blockchain. This collaboration will enable cross-chain connectivity and drive Web3 adoption.

Looking Ahead to 2025

We wrapped up the year at #ETHRiyadh (Dec 1–3), where we showcased Zilliqa 2.0’s ability to plug into the EVM ecosystem. Next up: delivering Agate, the Zilliqa 2.0 mainnet, in Q1 2025.
