The VeChain VIP-255 upgrade is set to launch on September 16, introducing multiple Ethereum Improvement Proposals across the VeChainThor blockchain. The upgrade aims to improve smart contract functionality and security, including new EVM instructions and cryptographic functions.

VET surged 23.53% as trading volume jumped nearly 278% amid upgrade news, with market capitalization reaching approximately $599 million. The VIP-255 upgrade includes several key changes, such as EIP-1153, which introduces transient storage for smart contracts at a cost of 100 gas.

Other notable additions include EIP-5656, which introduces the MCOPY instruction for more efficient memory data copying, and EIP-2537, which adds native BLS12-381 support for cryptographic precompiles. These changes are expected to improve network performance and security.
