On May 8th, Ramon, head of product delivery at Matter Labs, said that the next upgrade of zkSync will be launched on May 13th, and the new upgrade content and features include: P256Verify (this pre-compilation allows signature verification of secp256r1 elliptic curves, and also adds ecAdd, ecMul, and ecPairing pre-compilation); Bridgehub (the basic component that unlocks the interoperability of all ZK Stack chains); ZK Stack, the protocol work to support Validium, custom DA layers, and custom base tokens has also been completed. With some upcoming server changes, these changes will be available for ZK Stack chains; support for .transfer/.send calls, no need to provide Gas (this can unlock ETH in some contracts that were deployed without following best code practices).
