Technology iteration wave: leading projects focusing on major upgrades, infrastructure continues to be strengthened
In August, Web3 underlying technology tracks saw a cluster of updates. Multiple public chains and infrastructure projects kicked off major core upgrades, continuously optimizing on-chain performance, developer experience, and ecosystem security. Several heavy-weight features were officially launched on mainnets.
▶ Chainlink launches TWAP mainnet price feeds, DeFi precision fully upgraded
On August 2, oracle leader Chainlink officially launched a TWAP (time-weighted average price) mainnet price feed service. This feature can effectively avoid issues such as short-term price spikes and DeFi liquidations caused by sudden market anomalies, as well as price misjudgments. It provides DEX, lending protocols, and derivatives projects with more stable, accurate, manipulation-resistant on-chain price data, significantly improving the security and stability of the DeFi ecosystem—one of the key infrastructure upgrades for DeFi recently.
▶ Key upgrade window across multiple public chains in August
Solana Alpenglow upgrade: As the 2026 Solana core version update, it will focus on optimizing network congestion, lowering transaction fees, and further strengthening its position as the RWA tokenization-oriented core public chain;
MultiversX August 6 version upgrade: Focuses on on-chain compute optimization and upgrades to cross-chain interaction capabilities, improving the ecosystem’s adaptability across multiple scenarios; Zano hard fork No. 6 (8.25-8.27): Optimizes the privacy transaction mechanism, strengthening the security and compliance balance of anonymous asset trading; Velo Orbit Plus system major update: Fully optimizes system operating efficiency and user operation experience. The official advises users to back up wallet recovery phrases in advance to ensure asset safety.#加密市场观察
