Reacting to the new development, Dominik Schiener, Co-Founder and Chairman of the IOTA Foundation said:

“ShimmerEVM is an important step forward in becoming a novel and lively DeFi ecosystem, but to build it as strong as possible, we need to first open it up to public testing. We are so excited to launch Treasures of Shimmer to see what the community has been cooking up.

“It not only is the first opportunity for us to see how external projects will run on the EVM chain ahead of the full launch, but it also allows us to give back to our community through reward incentives.”
