Hyperledger Burrow
The latest Blockchain Pioneers blog post examines what Burrow was, why it didn't get more adoption and how it set the stage for other Hyperledger projects that came later that focused on the We would like to thank all of the people who contributed to Hyperledger Burrow while it was an active project.
Hyperledger Solang
The Hyperledger Solang maintainers wanted to share that Solang, a new Solidity compiler written in Rust, is compatible with Aleph Zero, a blockchain built with the polkadot-sdk that has fast blocktimes (1s) and ZK features. Check out the Solang Github repo to learn more about how to install and get started with Solang.

The Web3j team will lead Ethereum Development with Web3j and Java: A Hands-on Workshop on Thursday, March 28th at 8amPT/11amET/4pm GMT. Hyperledger Web3j is a highly modular, reactive, type safe Java and Android library for working with Smart Contracts and integrating with clients (nodes) on the Ethereum network. This allows you to work with the Ethereum blockchain, without the additional overhead of having to write your own integration code for the platform.

The Hyperledger Foundation will host the workshop, Zero Knowledge Proofs and ZK Programming in Blockchain Application Development on Wednesday, April 24th at 8amPT / 11am ET / 4pm GMT. Zero knowledge proofs and SNARK systems are becoming one of the revolutionary technologies of the beginning of this century. In this workshop we will give a high-level introduction to the zero knowledge and SNARK technology stack rather from a software developer and IT professional perspectives with covering only slightly the deep mathematical basis. During the workshop we will implement an experimental zKRollup system in Circom on Hyperledger Besu or Fabric.
