Dragon Fruit Upgrades PUSH0 For Polygon zkEVM: Enhance Reliability And Security

Key Points:

• Dragon Fruit brings improvements to Polygon zkEVM’s scalability solution.
• Support for PUSH0 opcode brings Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta up to date with the latest Solidity version.
• Security audits by Spearbit confirm Dragon Fruit’s reliability and security.

Polygon zkEVM, a layer 2 scaling solution, recently announced an upgrade to the network called Dragon Fruit, which will bring several improvements to the network.

One of the main features of Dragon Fruit is support for the latest Ethereum opcode, PUSH0 which is the latest EVM opcode, included in the Shanghai hard fork. Once Dragon Fruit is implemented, Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta will be up to date with the latest version of Solidity, maintaining the rollup’s equivalence with the EVM.

In addition to PUSH0, Dragon Fruit also includes a fix for a non-critical bug in the parsing of transactions. This fix improves the reliability and security of the network. Dragon Fruit has undergone security audits by Spearbit, which have not found any critical risks or soundness issues. The non-critical risks discovered during the audits have been fixed and confirmed by Spearbit.

Developers can already use and test Dragon Fruit on the public testnet for Polygon zkEVM. The upgrade process has been initiated and executed, with a 10-day timelock in place for the upgrade to be implemented on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta. The upgrade is scheduled to go live on Mainnet the week of September 11.

Once Dragon Fruit is live on Mainnet, developers will need to update to the latest versions of the node, prover, and bridge service. The GitHub repositories for these components can be found on the Polygon zkEVM website.
