We are thrilled to announce that HAQQ, a Shariah-compliant DeFi network, has upgraded to evmOS. This collaboration uses the advantageous features of evmOS tech stack to unlock opportunities for developers and users, driving forward a vision of inclusive, efficient, and Shariah-compliant financial services.

Overcoming Challenges with evmOS

evmOS is built with the Cosmos SDK and CometBFT consensus algorithm and offers developers an environment that combines the familiarity of Ethereum’s EVM with the interchain interoperability. This architecture has positioned evmOS as a leader in pursuing cross-chain compatibility and innovation within the DeFi space.

HAQQ, equipped with evmOS, can now empower developers to create sophisticated smart contracts and decentralized applications without worrying about scalability, performance, and connectivity while adhering to its familiar industry standard.

By upgrading to evmOS, developers on HAQQ network now have direct access to the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, unlocking interoperability between Solidity smart contracts and the interchain ecosystem. evmOS comes with ready-to-use IBC connections with major Cosmos SDK chains, such as Osmosis, Stride, and more, which grants HAQQ developers and users access to vast liquidity, a range of DeFi dApps, and services.

Efficient Token Management, Governance, and Access to Interchain

evmOS presents several advantages for HAQQ developers. The framework’s stateful precompiles, also known as EVM Extensions, enable dynamic state maintenance and allow developers to access advanced DeFi features such as liquid staking, automated vaults, and algorithmic trading strategies.

Additionally, evmOS’ new Single Token Representation feature simplifies token management, bridging the gap between Cosmos and ERC-20 token representations, and allowing developers to focus on business logic and innovation without considering extra overhead.

HAQQ Network was built to create Shariah-compliant DeFi solutions that cater to a global audience. By leveraging evmOS’ interoperability and HAQQ’s Shariah Oracle architecture, developers can ensure that smart contracts adhere to Islamic principles, opening up new avenues for financial inclusion and ethical investment opportunities.

Islamic Coin, the native token of the HAQQ network is used for interest-free investments, halal trading, and charitable giving opportunities, blending modern fintech with Islamic heritage, giving users the power to honor traditions while embracing the tech revolution.

We are excited about the possibilities following our partnership with HAQQ. Together, we are pioneering a new era of DeFi innovation, where inclusivity, efficiency, and ethical principles are priorities of financial services.

Stay tuned for more updates and announcements as we work together to build the future of finance with evmOS and HAQQ.
