Major Tenderbake upgrade revolutionizes the Tezos blockchain

This month, a major protocol upgrade, Ithaca 2, was deployed on the Tezos blockchain.

In addition, Ithaca 2 prepares the Tezos blockchain for scalability enhancements such as rollups for WebAssembly and Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility. The Ithaca 2 upgrade will also reduce the requirement to become a network validator by 25% from 8,000 tez (the Tezos digital token) to 6,000 tez, taking the networkโ€™s decentralization up a notch.
