Chang Hard-fork Brings Plutus V3 To Cardano

Plutus V3 is a massive upgrade that will bring new possibilities for applications built on Cardano. 

For example, it introduces new cryptographic primitives including zero-knowledge (ZK). This will allow building ZK rollups and ZK smart contracts on Cardano. The Vasil hard-fork, deployed in September 2022, brought Plutus V2. V2 had a significant impact on the efficiency of smart contracts. 

V3 again brings higher efficiency, but also new possibilities. Plutus V3 is available for testing on SanchoNet. What Plutus V3 Brings Plutus V3 includes advanced primitives and tools that give developers more options for writing smart contracts. 

The IOG team, in cooperation with MLabs, focused mainly on performance, throughput, size of SC, and new capabilities. Cryptographic capabilities will be Read article: Chang Hard-fork Brings Plutus V3 To Cardano
