Morning Farmers! ☀️ Harvest report is here;

1/ gZIL holders: voting is now open for the committee compensation proposal. Following the positive engagement and feedback received during the Governance Portal temperature check, we are now moving forward with a formal community vote. 🗳 Vote here: governance.zilliqa.com/#/gzi…

The category doesn't have a settled name yet. That's not a gap — that's the opening. A chain that verifies legal eligibility before settlement. Not after. Not off-chain. We're calling it credentialed permissionless. The chain that names the category leads it.

Institutional blockchain adoption keeps stalling at the same point. Not at the tech. Not at compliance. At the coordination problem. 🧵

✨ It’s #ChainWatchThursday, and what’s new with @zilliqa as the network continues reinforcing its infrastructure and ecosystem coordination? 🤔 ⚙️ Zilliqa recently completed its scheduled v0.21.0 mainnet upgrade focused on validator infrastructure, network resilience, and operational efficiency. The release introduced state pruning, RANDAO support, deposit contract upgrades, and more flexible checkpoint versioning, as the network continues to refine its validator architecture and protocol performance. 📊 Ecosystem transparency is also improving. Zilliqa’s tokenomics are now live on Tokenomics.com, providing a public breakdown of allocation structure, vesting schedules, unlock status, protocol revenue, and staking emissions, giving the community a clearer view into the network’s long-term economic design. 🏗 On the ecosystem side, GZIL Collective is reviewing the Season 1 grants framework before moving into Season 2. The review focuses on lessons learned from the first cohort of funded projects as the community treasury initiative prepares its next phase of ecosystem support. The broader direction remains consistent: Zilliqa is focusing on strengthening core infrastructure, improving transparency around network economics, and refining the frameworks that support long-term ecosystem growth. #Zilliqa #ChainWatch #Web3 #BlockchainInfrastructure #Tokenomics #Crypto

The biggest blocker to institutional onchain adoption isn't throughput or gas fees. It's that no one on a public chain can cryptographically prove who they actually are. A wallet address proves nothing about the legal entity behind it. 🧵

Stablecoin legislation is passing. Everyone's focused on which stablecoins survive. The smarter question: which chains can actually clear the compliance bar to run them at scale? 🧵

GZIL Collective: Next steps Although not all Season 1 grant projects are completed yet, we are currently reviewing the framework based on lessons learned from Season 1. Once this is done, we will share the outcome with the community and begin the Season 2 grants process.

Take a look at Eternal Blade on Steam - an open-world action RPG. What started on Zilliqa with the Light Walker warriors NFT collection (early 2022), followed by Women Warriors NFT collection (2023), is now taking shape. Congratulations @shilldianajones and @ShibuiUniverse - great to see years of hard work coming together.

4 years ago, I started writing a story. About the legendary Light Walker warriors being cursed to the Soulless Citadel. Then a story of how the remaining women trained to survive, and then the story of a girl trying to save her father and her people from this curse. Then an anime screenplay. Then it became a manga. Then a game. One step led to another. Today, the Steam page for @EternalBlade_x is live. We built this from scratch. No investors. No studio. Just a few people who refused to stop, and with the support of the best community we could ask for! If you've been following this journey, this one's for you. And many more to come for @ShibuiUniverse 🫡 Wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/4…

💡 Lessons from 5 Years in Crypto – perspective from @zilliqa As @letsexchange_io celebrates its anniversary, we asked partners what transformation in crypto has been the most significant. Zilliqa emphasizes the shift from speculation toward real infrastructure, institutions, and long-term blockchain systems. Explore more insights from industry experts 👇 go.letsexchange.io/zilliqa-e…

The next wave of blockchain adoption won't come from retail. It'll come from a CFO at a mid-size asset manager who finally has to answer the question: should we tokenise this fund? Here's what that decision actually looks like from the inside. 🧵
