Elastos Bi-Weekly Update – 14 May, 2023

In this update, Elastos focused on improving the stability, functionality, and interoperability of its main chain, side chains, and related components. The main chain underwent regression testing and optimizations, ensuring stability. Development work was initiated to meet requirements for developing the new Elastos sidechain. The EVM upgrade on the Elastos Smart Contract (ESC) chain was completed, and the team is currently performing the Consensus and contract compatibility testing. 

Significant improvements were made to the Essentials wallet. The BPoS dApp received enhancements, and technical support was provided to the community. Significant progress was made in Carrier, including detecting malicious node behavior and porting Carrier Native for Windows. These updates reflect Elastos’ commitment to enhancing its blockchain infrastructure, sidechain ecosystem, wallet experience, and decentralized communication network.
