Zilliqa Monthly Newsletter - February 2025
ZIL
Big updates in staking, gaming, and ecosystem growth! Here are the highlights for the Zilliqa ecosystem for February 2025.
Prepare for Proof-of-Stake on Zilliqa 2.0
The Zilliqa team is developing a new staking portal and delegation contracts to support validators on Zilliqa 2.0. Users will need to manually migrate their staked ZIL to new validators once the mainnet goes live, with a proto-mainnet launch for testing expected soon.
The Winners Circle launches Front Runner: Racehorse Manager
Front Runner: Racehorse Manager, a strategy-based horse racing game, has launched in alpha on mobile and browser. Players can build, breed, and race horses while competing for real-world rewards, with a full release planned for Summer 2025.
X-Bridge exploit and mitigation
On February 6, a vulnerability in X-Bridge’s zETH and zBNB contracts allowed unauthorised minting of bridged assets. The Zilliqa team has since upgraded security measures, reinstated X-Bridge in a limited capacity, and continues strengthening the network.
AMAs and ecosystem news
Zilliqa hosted a written AMA on X covering key aspects of Zilliqa 2.0, including privacy on x-shards and unstaking.
February also saw the launch of Plunder Points on PlunderSwap and the $ZIL-$USD trading pair being added to Binance US.
