-Some recent highlights include:
-- Renewed funding from the EF to accelerate development
-- Completed Berlin and London fork compatibility (EIP-1559). It now passes nearly all the EF Hive testsuite, and 100% of contract execution tests (47,951 tests)
-- New GraphQL and WebSocket APIs, complementing JSON-RPC
-- EVMC compatibility, supporting third-party optimised EVM plugins
-- Up to 100x memory saving during contract executions
-- Asynchronous EVM to execute many contracts in parallel, while they wait for data from the network
-- Updated network protocols, to work with the latest eth/66-68 protocols
-- A prototype new mechanism for state sync which combines what have been called Fast sync, Snap sync and Beam sync in a self-tuning way, and allows the user to participate in the network (read accounts, run transactions etc.) while sync is still in progress
-- A significant redesign of the storage database to use less disk space and run faster.
