Note

Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta update is underway and in anticipation of the advancement, the network has released some core information for users in its ecosystem.
<h2 id="strong-polygon-zkevm-upgrade-schedule-strong">Polygon zkEVM Upgrade Schedule</h2>
According to layer-2 protocol, the update of Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta infrastructure will occur on November 23 at 13:00 UTC and it is expected to happen within 30 minutes. Markedly, there will be no interruption of the activities on the Polygon network during this time, except for when the update has been completed and the sequencer takes approximately 2 minutes to restart.&nbsp;
Just as with other <a href="https://coingape.com/polygon-zkevm-crosses-historic-milestone-amid-ecosystem-expansion/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">notable upgrades in the past</a>, no action is required from end users prior to the upgrade or even afterward. This is because no alterations have been made to the side of the Polygon zkEVM that impacts them. Only developers are required to upgrade their node, prover, and bridge to the latest versions to grasp the network’s full potential and continue to build Decentralized Applications (DApps) on the Ethereum blockchain.&nbsp;
The upcoming update is a pivotal move for the Polygon zkEVM as it comes with several significant changes and features. In the long run, these changes will play important roles in the zkEVM node, bridge, and prover infrastructure, including changes to RPC, sequencer, synchroniser, and databases.&nbsp;
One other fix that would come with the zkEVM update is Websocket improvements.

Markedly, the Polygon zkEVM <a href="https://coingape.com/polygon-unveils-layer-2-zkevm-network-matic-price-rally/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Beta version</a>&nbsp;was first released earlier this year. This was after a funding round of $1 billion, two audits conducted by third-party organizations, and an internal audit involving 26 researchers. Sandeep Nailwal, Polygon’s co-founder explained how the zkEVM brings an extra level of innovation to the deployment of DApps.
<blockquote>
 “With zkEVM, you will be able to deploy any Ethereum application without any modifications, using existing Ethereum developer tools like Remix, and interact with the network using standard wallets like Metamask,” he said.
</blockquote>
Since then, several upgrades have been introduced into the Layer-2 scaling solution.&nbsp; In April, Polygon announced <a href="https://coingape.com/polygon-bridge-for-polygon-zkevm-goes-live-allows-withdrawals-from-ethereum/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">the addition of the Polygon PoS Bridge</a> to the Polygon zkEVM. Another milestone is the <a href="https://coingape.com/venus-protocol-community-votes-for-deployment-on-polygon-zkevm/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">integration</a>&nbsp;of the network with other projects.&nbsp;
Polygon’s native token MATIC spiked 3.44% on the news and is changing hands at $0.7782 at the time of writing.
