The technical enhancement is focused on three features voted on by the community:

Easier zero-knowledge application programmability (Mina Improvement Proposal (MIP) 4)
Introduction of a powerful proof system (MIP 3)
Removal of a short-term incentive, Supercharged Rewards (MIP 1)

The protocol’s official blog post outlines how contributors have extensively tested and pushed the network to its limit, and MINA is ready for its final stage of testing on April 9.
