Smart contracts provide means to implement a business logic on a blockchain. As is the case with most businesses, smart contracts often handle money and very often a lot of money (typically in hundreds of millions of dollars)

Following the successful launch of our mainnet, we’ve begun refocusing our efforts towards our developer community and the next generation of blockchain talent. Through our participation in initiatives such as Future of Blockchain [https://www.forbes.com/sites/ginaclarke/2019/02/12/future-of-blockchain-university-conference-that-aims-to-enlighten-a-generation/#2639ce1c1c84] , our recent launch of Blockchain

— Mainnet Growth, Marketing Focus Since the launch of our mainnet on January 31, the network has grown significantly in hashing power, nodes participating, and difficulty (see the Tech Updates below for details). At the current rate, we are looking to open up our mainnet to actual transactions beginning in early

Dear community, We are excited to announce that the Zilliqa mainnet has now been launched. You may visit the block explorer at https://explorer.zilliqa.com [https://explorer.zilliqa.com/].

— Upcoming Mainnet Launch: What to Expect It has been around a year and a half since we made the first commit to our GitHub repository (under the initial project name nuQoin). With that first commit, we set out to build a secure and scalable blockchain platform. Now, after picking a

— Happy Holidays from Zilliqa This will be our final project update of 2018 and it suffices to say that this past year was a major year of progress from our project, from the recent launching of Testnet v3 — the first fully-fledged testnet in the world to implement network, transaction, and

As the year comes to an end, we take a moment to reflect on the important events of 2018 and look ahead at what’s in store for us in 2019. It is with no doubt that we will look back on 2018 as one of the most exciting and

We announced the launch of Testnet v3 [https://blog.zilliqa.com/announcing-testnet-v3-0-codename-mao-shan-wang-fc91189ba3fa] , Mao Shan Wang, last Friday. Mao Shan Wang is a fully-fledged public testnet with the same features as our upcoming mainnet [https://blog.zilliqa.com/zilliqa-project-update-21-details-on-jan-31-2019-mainnet-launch-ec87473966ce] , and this includes public mining.

— Codename: Mao Shan Wang We launched Testnet v2 back in June this year, which came with critical features, including documentation and the Scilla IDE, that enabled developers to write and test their smart contracts on our platform. Today, we are thrilled to announce that Testnet v3, codenamed “Mao Shan Wang”

We believe that a blockchain protocol cannot succeed without a talented community looking to build on it. That’s why we started the #BuildonZIL program — to seek out talented individuals and teams to build on our protocol. As we make progress with our first wave of awardees, we are continuously

Developing decentralized applications on blockchain can be challenging. Unfamiliarity with the new technology, long waiting times and the inability to “trace” errors on smart contracts are some of the reasons why development is an uphill task. To tackle some of these challenges, we have developed Kaya RPC — Zilliqa’s RPC

Last year, we announced a partnership with Mindshare to build applications for the digital advertising industry. The partnership will evaluate how Zilliqa’s blockchain protocol can best address some of the challenges in the digital advertising industry. Over the past few months, we have been working with a few industry
