Q1 of 2024 has been a flurry of activity over at SparqNet, with the team buzzing with excitement as they unveil a host of innovative developments. Amidst the hustle and bustle, they’ve been hard at work, pushing the boundaries of decentralized technology and setting the stage for a future with limitless possibilities. 

SparqNet is proud to highlight all the developments taking place while reshaping the landscape of decentralized applications and paving the way for a brighter, more interconnected digital future. 

Let’s explore what they’ve been up to👇

1:1 Features of EVM 👉👈

EVM serves as the cornerstone for dApps. The appeal of EVM-compatible solutions remains undeniable. Although there are challenges with tools outside the Ethereum ecosystem. Despite facing limitations like gas constraints and stack item issues, SparqNet's OrbiterSDK now provides EVM's features 1:1, opening up new opportunities for developers.

SparqNet's OrbiterSDK replicates essential EVM functions while introducing improvements like decentralized networks and isolation. Developers can choose between Dynamic Contracts, similar to Solidity smart contracts, or Protocol Contracts for more flexibility, although with stricter code alignment requirements.

SparqNet ensures consistent transaction outcomes and adopts a language-neutral approach, mainly using C++, to speed up dApp development and cater to developers skilled in different languages. The platform enhances transaction decoding through reflections and consistently updates OrbiterSDK to provide thorough testing frameworks, event support, and expanded ABI specifications, closely resembling EVM functionalities.

By achieving 1:1 EVM features, SparqNet boosts interoperability efforts, reducing reliance on multiple tools and allowing developers to concentrate on improving EVM capabilities, making it an attractive choice among EVM-compatible chains.
