Additionally, the team continued to look after developers building on Everscale and introduced a new Locklift plugin that helps comfortably launch and test smart contracts. The new Locklift-Deploy plugin was added to Locklift, expanding the tool's functionality and simplifying the process of deploying and migrating smart contracts. This convenient solution will help developers save a lot of time and make the development process more comfortable.

DAO IPCI carbon certificates – migration of smart contracts from Ethereum to Everscale 

The heroes of the next exciting bit of news were the Robonomics team and DAO IPCI, who moved their Solidity smart contracts for carbon certificates from Ethereum to Everscale. This not only increased the security of operations but also reduced fees. In an interview, Vadim Manayenko, the head of the engineering department at Robonomics, noted the advantages of Everscale and gave feedback about working in the network.

Everscale x WalletConnect: work results

And that's not all. In tandem with the ITGOLD team, Everspace has completed work on proposal #92, which was put forward on the EverDAO platform. The result is an open-source solution similar to WalletConnect that aims to solve the problem of having to hold multiple wallets, as well as the development gap caused by the need for services to integrate with all the separate Everscale wallets.

And that's all for now. It has been a very productive month for Everscale, and we expect even more in May!
