The proposals, authored by Jason Dreyzehner, aim to enhance Bitcoin Cash’s smart contract capabilities. The first, CHIP-2021–05: Targeted VM Limits, seeks to optimize virtual machine limits to enable more advanced contracts and reduce transaction sizes. The second, CHIP-2024–07: BigInt, introduces high-precision arithmetic, simplifying complex smart contracts and improving network efficiency. Feedback and discussions on the proposals are ongoing on the Bitcoin Cash Research Forum, with several stakeholders already signaling their approval.
