Crypto News: As Bitcoin’s price reclaims the coveted $28K mark, the overall crypto market has grown to reach almost a $1.2 trillion market cap — which places it just behind that of Silver. While the whole market is abuzz with Bitcoin’s recent surge and Ethereum’s upcoming Shanghai Hard Fork upgrade, there are a few developments in the crypto space which deserve your attention as well. Here’s a list of cryptocurrency projects with upcoming updates that you shouldn’t miss.

Polygon (MATIC) zkEVM Launch

The zkEVM Beta offered by Polygon is an industry-leading ZK scaling solution and is analogous to Ethereum Virtual Machine. It does this by harnessing the power of zero-knowledge proofs, which allows for reduced transaction costs and a large boost in throughput, all while inheriting Ethereum’s security. The team chose March 27 as the official date for the mainnet launch.
