The upgrade enabled several features to the Terra Classic blockchain, including minimum initial deposit for governance proposals, upgrade to Cosmos SDK v0.45.13 and Tendermint v0.34.24, as well as mandatory security updates.

The next major upgrade Cosmwasm v1.1.0 upgrade (parity) is scheduled for May 31. It will bring back utility to the Terra Classic network by allowing projects and builders across Cosmos and Terra Luna 2.0 to once again build on the Terra Classic chain. L1TF will finalize the block and exact date for Parity upgrade by May 21.

Professor Edward Kim will be launching the testnet for AI upgrade Block Entropy. Testnet will only support a small set of ML inference tasks at this time (AI image diffusion, text language models, and music generation). Distributed training, fine-tuning, python APIs, and SNARK verification comes later.

The developments are as planned under the Terra Classic Revival Roadmap, with reinstating USTC peg and LUNC sentiment. A discussion on increasing the burn tax to 1.2% is also underway.
