Source Fxstreet
  • Crypto.com’s Cronos chain completed its mainnet upgrade on Wednesday. 
  • The mainnet upgrade enhanced Cronos’ compatibility with decentralized applications. 
  • CRO price lost nearly 2% of its value in the past day. 

Cronos (CRO) is an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible chain in the Cosmos ecosystem. A mainnet upgrade was completed early on Wednesday and the asset’s price declined nearly 2% in the past 24 hours. 

Cronos completes mainnet upgrade 

The Cronos mainnet upgrade that was completed on Wednesday improved the backward compatibility and Remote Procedure Call (RPC) enhancements on the chain. The Cosmos-based chain allows for the porting of apps and smart contracts from Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. 

Cronos announced in an official tweet that the mainnet upgrade was completed on April 17.

CRO’s blockchain is one of the few chains that exist at the intersection of Ethereum and Cosmos and the open-source blockchain has now improved backward compatibility for dApps. 

The chain is known for its fast finality and low-cost transactions. The chain competes with Ethereum and offers multichain interoperability for users. 

CRO price is down nearly 2% 

CRO, the native token of the Cronos chain, has seen nearly 2% decline in its price on Wednesday. CRO price is down nearly 15% in the past week. At the time of writing, CRO price is $0.1237 on Crypto.com.

Gold falls to a two-month low as real yields bite — can $4,000 hold?Gold hit a two-month low on 7 October, with spot touching roughly $4,090 and COMEX December futures closing at $4,140.70, even as the New York Fed's one-year inflation expectation rose to 3.9% — its highest since May 2023. The paradox resolves through real yields: the 30-year Treasury yield reached 5.732% intraday, its highest since 2002. Here are the levels, the institutional split, and the scenarios into tonight's jobless claims and 30-year auction.
