BlockBeats news, on May 8, Ramon, the head of product delivery at Matter Labs, said that the next upgrade of zkSync will be launched on May 13. The new upgrade content and features include: P256Verify (this precompilation allows signature verification of the secp256r1 elliptic curve, and also adds ecAdd, ecMul and ecPairing precompilations); Bridgehub (the basic component that unlocks the interoperability of all ZK Stack chains); on the ZK Stack side, the protocol work to support Validium, custom DA layers, and custom base tokens has also been completed, and with some upcoming server changes, these changes will be available for the ZK Stack chain; support for .transfer/.send calls without providing Gas (this can unlock ETH in some contracts that were deployed without following best code practices).
