About Darwinia 2.0
Darwinia 2.0 will be EVM-compatible, enabling you to leverage infrastructure from the Ethereum ecosystem.
- Darwinia 2.0 will use the same address format as Ethereum and the ECDSA cryptographic algorithm, which is also used by Ethereum. This means that addresses in Darwinia 2.0 will be fully compatible with Ethereum addresses.
- The native token RING will have the same precision as ETH on the Ethereum blockchain.
- Developers can use the familiar Ethereum infrastructure to develop applications on Darwinia 2.0.
Darwinia 2.0 will provide a stronger foundation for future development, resulting in higher code quality, faster iteration cycles, shorter cross-chain routing paths, and an improved user experience.
