Zilliqa continues to evolve, adapting its infrastructure to meet modern market demands while providing efficient access to decentralized finance. Key changes include EVM compatibility and a shift to a PoS layer.
Transition to EVM and PoS
In 2025, Zilliqa launched a new mainnet featuring full Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility and a decentralized Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This upgrade significantly simplified developer access to the Zilliqa ecosystem by removing barriers related to the Scilla smart contract language. Additionally, the new network version reduced block creation times to approximately one second.
Building Institutional Trust
Zilliqa actively collaborates with the Liechtenstein Legal Entity Identifier Network (LTIN), highlighting its commitment to establishing stringent compliance standards for bridging traditional finance to Web3. The company has refocused on providing robust, scalable infrastructure for developers and enterprises.
Global Expansion and Competition
Currently, Zilliqa is focused not only on Southeast Asia but also on the UK, motivated by the regulatory developments and interest in blockchain innovations in the region. Projects like The Winners Circle emphasize Zilliqa’s strategy at the intersection of physical and digital assets.
Zilliqa's developments illustrate that blockchain can bridge traditional finance with Web3, unlocking new opportunities for both developers and institutional clients.
