Gate.io News bot message, Polkadot has launched a smart contract execution environment supporting RISC-V on the AseetHub Westend Testnet. Developers can now use Solidity to develop on Polkadot, and the contracts will run on the new PolkaVM execution engine.
The RISC-V architecture features a clear structure and predictable execution behavior, making it suitable for conversion into zero-knowledge proof circuits. This architecture, in conjunction with the LLVM compiler, supports contract development using languages such as Rust and C, while providing foundational support for building the execution layer of “ZK native chains.”
