Algorand ships v5.0 upgrade, expanding AVM capabilities

  • v5.0 upgrade expands the AVM to support larger programs
  • Cross-app box access added for on-chain flexibility
  • New SHA512 and Poseidon2 hash functions introduced
  • ALGO trading volume remains low despite the upgrade
Why it matters: The broader AVM toolkit could accelerate dApp launches on Algorand and lift demand for ALGO.
