One week on from Interstellar. The upgrade is finalized, with no issues observed. VeChainThor now sits much closer to the modern EVM environment builders already know: cheaper temporary state, faster memory operations, passkey- and proof-friendly cryptography, and tighter limits for more predictable block times. For builders, that means less work adapting EVM apps and tooling for VeChainThor. For everyone else? No drama. The network keeps running as expected. That’s how protocol work should feel from the outside: planned, tested, then quietly doing its job. The Renaissance continues.
