Chiming in to promote ink! 🙂

At this moment, the [ink! alliance](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/treasury-ink-alliance-for-a-more-successful-plaza/9692) is working on making ink! compile to PVM, allowing ink! smart contracts to be deployed on Polkadot just like Solidity-based contracts.

Once that milestone is achieved, it might be a significant point for the alliance to start considering the Ethereum ABI, enabling both ink! contracts and EVM-compatible contracts not only to run on the same VM but interact with each other. Step by step.

✨ As of today, the following js libraries and utils work nicely with ink! and can be used to build dapps:

- [dedot](https://github.com/dedotdev/dedot)
- [inkathon](https://github.com/scio-labs/inkathon)
- [polkadot-api](https://github.com/polkadot-api/polkadot-api)
- [polkadot.js](https://github.com/polkadot-js/)
