Decimal blockchain update results. What you need to know at the moment.
A significant step for the blockchain has arrived. On August 1, on its four-year anniversary, the Decimal blockchain started the migration process and September 4 - 95% of the functionality is already running on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). All interactions with the blockchain now go through the EVM, but functionality related to validators will remain on the COSMOS module, interacting with the EVM through smart contracts.
The development team has done a lot of hard and not easy work on the update to introduce a new blockchain to the cryptocurrency market considering the accepted initiative from CEO Decimal.
The block height of 22,372,801 was the first block when Decimal's blockchain is already running on EVM.
At this time, all necessary tests have been conducted and restrictions on the use of the blockchain network have been lifted.
The development team is now working on fixing minor bugs, adding missing sections to the console, updating the Decimal Wallet mobile app, and working with projects that collaborate with Decimal.
Check out the results of the blockchain update in this article: decimalchain.com/blog/result_update_decimal_en
On September 4, the global update of mainnet was completed.
● During the gradual connection of validators to the network, there was a strain on the infrastructure, which led to errors in the validators themselves. As a result, the network is currently unable to accept external information and perform transactions. The team is currently making every effort to restore the validators' operation.
● Also, please note that Decimal Wallet mobile application has not yet been switched to the new EVM protocols. Therefore, please refrain from using it and wait for the updated version. In the near future, when the blockchain is fully functional - we will publish an article about the results of the update.
Decimal blockchain has been successfully updated! Congratulations to everyone!
The migration was successful. Meet the new Decimal blockchain on EVM.
● Blockchain restrictions are lifted. The network is tested and functioning.
● In the near future, we will prepare an article about minor bugs related to the display of information in the console and in Explorer. These bugs do not affect the operation of the blockchain and the development team is already working on them.
● Also, we are working on the inclusion of sections that are still being finalized. All changes are published on Decimal's official sites.
Decimal blockchain migration, 99.9% ready. The blockchain has successfully switched to EVM, but is still not ready for use. To prevent users from encountering bugs, the testing team has started work.
❗️Please refrain from using the blockchain until notified about the final verification of Decimal to EVM migration.
Blockchain migration, 99.8% ready. The blockchain has successfully switched to EVM, but is not ready for use yet. ❗️ Please refrain from using the blockchain for the next 3 hours! ⚙️ Validators have been updated, but node API updates are being finalized. Also the migration of reserves is nearing completion. We will report on completion immediately.
According to the latest news from the development team, sync-service has completely finished data synchronization on prod environment and is ready for migration.
● But at the moment the migration is postponed due to bugs found during testing related to the implementation of tokenomics 2.0. As a reminder, during the blockchain migration, initiatives will be implemented to stabilize the tokenomics of the project.
● The nature of the errors is not critical, but requires careful correction, as it affects the operation of the basic functionality of the blockchain. At the moment, the efforts of the whole team are aimed at promptly fixing the problems.
● Decimal's blockchain migration to EVM On August 1, the Sync service was launched, which started the procedure of synchronization into new smart contracts of the current state. The process is in its final stages. Very soon an updated version of the blockchain will be presented. Validation by testers is in progress. We are waiting for the migration to be completed.
● Restriction of new NFT creation during migration In order to ensure that state synchronization during blockchain migration is performed correctly, as part of the built-in procedure, operations with new-style NFTs created via nft.decimalchain.com have been restricted.
● Decimal Tokenomics Stabilization While the blockchain is migrating from Cosmos to EVM, data has been published of the modified tokenomics that you and I are expected to see once the upgrade is complete. Read more at the link.
Implementation of technical solutions to stabilize tokenomics
While the Decimal development team is working on the blockchain migration, let's share the tokenomics changes we are looking forward to in the updated blockchain:
● APR change to 36%; ● Hold status in delegation; ● Additional rewards on hold steaks; ● Reduction of unbond to 15 days;
Read more about the changes and how it affects tokenomics in the article at the link: decimalchain.com/blog/ru/izmenenie_tokenomiki_decimal_en/
As you know, the blockchain update went live on August 1 and since then the Sync service has been running to migrate user balance data to the updated blockchain. As of today, more than half of the addresses from the genesis blockchain have already been migrated. A small part is left and very soon the new Decimal blockchain will be introduced!
During the migration, we ask users to minimize their use of the blockchain. During the blockchain shutdown, all balances and services will be finally synchronized. As soon as block "X" and "Y" on the final migration is determined - news will be published.

On Sunday evening, the Decimal blockchain synchronization procedure, which was launched on August 1 and is the first phase of the migration, passed a certain milestone and moved on to NFT processing.
● It is important to note that there are now two NFT formats on the Decimal blockchain: 1. The old-style ones that work within the COSMOS standard. These are now available and are created at console.decimalchain.com; 2. Newer style ones that work within the EVM module. These are now available to create and view within the Decimal NFT product: nft.decimalchain.com, which was launched during the VK integration.
● In order for the synchronization of states to take place correctly, operations with new-style NFTs were restricted as part of the built-in procedure. That is, at the moment, any operations with existing NFTs will be blocked. This is a temporary measure and will be removed when the migration takes place.
● Decimal's blockchain is 4 years old! Exactly 4 years ago, the blockchain launched. Congratulations to all users on Decimal's birthday! On August 5, expect to finish the blockchain migration from Cosmos to EVM and meet the updated Decimal.
