• Dymension has partnered with Evmos Core Teams and Celestia to launch the world’s first-ever IBC-enabled EVM rollup on testnet.
• The new EVM RollApp utilizes the EVMOS token as its gas token and updates its state to the Dymension Hub, as well as posts data to Celestia’s “Mocha” testnet.
• Developers will be able to fork any EVM-based dApp and deploy it on the RollApp using Dymension’s technology.
Dymension Launches First IBC-Enabled EVM Rollup
Dymension, a blockchain startup building a network of easily deployable modular blockchains called RollApps has announced its collaboration with Celestia and Evmos Core Teams to launch the world’s first-ever IBC-enabled EVM rollup on testnet.
About The IBC Enabled EVM Rollup
The IBC enabled EVM RollApp will be deployed within Dymension’s initial testing ground “35-C”, as part of its long term plan to establish and bootstrap a new ecosystem of IBC enabled rollups. The deployment was made possible through close collaboration with the Evmos Core Development Team, as the RollApp uses Ethermint, an implementation of Ethereum Virtual Machine that is built on top of Dymension’s RollApp.
Features Of The New Rollapp
The new EVM RollApp utilizes the EVMOS token as its gas token and updates its state to the Dymension Hub and posts data to Celestia’s “Mocha” testnet. In addition, the new RollApp features a Uniswap V2 fork and a bespoke frontend in order for developers to deploy their own RollApp and host EVM dApps.
Comments From Yishay Harel
Yishay Harel, CEO & Co-Founder of Dymension Lab commented: „Excited to have worked closely with the Evmos team to achieve this milestone. With the world’s first IBC enabled EVMs now deployed on testnet we’re one step closer to bringing scalable and interoperable blockchain solutions to wider community.“
Benefits To Developers
Developers will be able to fork any EVM based dAPP and deploy it on their own version of Dymensions‘ technology which is IBC enabled allowing for interoperability between different chains or networks. This allows developers more flexibility when creating applications that can span across multiple platforms or networks making them more powerful than ever before!
