Some of the improved features include support for Ethereum’s native token – ether, reduced bundle sizes, and plugin support for shipping different functionalities in separate packages.
This is the latest development coming from the Ethereum L2 solution, which was also recently integrated into the workflow automation platform PARSIQ, as CryptoPotato reported.
