In a positive development, <a href="https://polygon.technology/blog/polygon-zkevm-dragon-fruit-upgrade-with-new-opcode-coming-to-mainnet-beta?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=polygon-zkevm-dragon-fruit-upgrade-with-new-opcode-coming-to-mainnet-beta" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Polygon zkEVM</a> mainnet beta is set to receive its first major upgrade, Dragon Fruit, or ForkID5. 
Polygon zkEVM launched on mainnet beta in March of this year and represents an all-purpose Ethereum scaling protocol featuring EVM equivalence. 
Dragon Fruit requires an upgrade of the Polygon.zkEVM.sol consensus contract. In keeping with Polygon zkEVM's governance model, the upgrade process has been initiated and executed and is expected to conclude Sept. 10. 
The Dragon Fruit upgrade includes the latest EVM opcode, PUSH0, bringing Polygon zkEVM up to date with Solidity v0.8.21 and is expected to hit mainnet the week of Sept. 11.
