VeChain launches the Interstellar phase of its Renaissance roadmap following the advances introduced by Galactica and Hayabusa. The team presented proposal VIP-255, a hardfork designed to reduce compatibility issues between VeChainThor and the Ethereum ecosystem, incorporating execution improvements from the Cancun, Prague and Osaka versions into a single consensus upgrade.
VIP-255: Improving VeChain Compatibility
The proposal bundles a set of improvements to the smart contract execution environment. Among the new capabilities is transient storage defined by EIP-1153, which allows contracts to maintain a temporary state that is cleared upon execution completion and enables more gas-efficient patterns, such as reentrancy protections and temporary authorizations. The MCOPY instruction, introduced by EIP-5656, simplifies memory copy operations and improves compatibility with modern compilers such as Solidity and Vyper.
