The Enjin Blockchain "Bugis" Upgrade is set to roll out in two phases: February 24, 2025, for Enjin Relaychain v1.5.0, and March 24, 2025, for Enjin Matrixchain v1.2.0.
This update introduces significant enhancements, boosting Matrixchain speed by 100% by reducing block time from 12 seconds to 6 seconds. Additionally, new features in the Marketplace pallet and various quality-of-life improvements will enhance the overall user experience.
