Simultaneously with the Astar Studio release, Astar Network and Sequence have announced their collaboration to provide a special “Astar Studio Credit Grant” valued at $200,000 worth of Astar Studio credit to foster the growth of the Astar zkEVM ecosystem. Recipients of this credit will be able to utilize it for any of the developer tools available within Astar Studio.

“The integration with Sequence is going to be very beneficial for the developers building on Astar zkEVM,” said Shaun Wang, Chief Technology Officer at Astar Network, in a written statement. “By combining Astar zkEVM with Sequence’s development platform, we’re empowering developers to build next-generation Web3 dApps in easy mode. This partnership fosters a smooth and familiar development experience while ensuring low transaction fees and scalability. We’re excited to see the innovative and engaging experiences that developers will create with Astar Studio and look forward to working with Sequence,” he added.
