🚀 Smart Contracts, Unchained.
👁️‍🗨️ Until now, EVM contracts have been blindfolded:
❌ No access to historical state
❌ No cross-block computation
❌ Reliant on indexers & expensive oracles
❌ Trapped under Ethereum’s ⛓️ 30M gas limit

Enter Steel 2.0 🔩 – a ZK-coprocessor for the EVM.
🧠 Run powerful logic offchain
📊 Aggregate data over time
🪄 Return a tiny ZK proof onchain

⚡ Verify with constant gas.
🆓 Build without limits.
🧱 The EVM tunnel just opened up.

🔓 Steel 2.0: Breaking the EVM Free

Three core primitives power the future:
📥 Event logs → trustless, verifiable inputs
🕰️ Historical state → from any block since Dencun
📆 Multi-block logic → compute across time, not just blocks

All offloaded ⛅ off-chain
All verified 🔐 on-chain
Still 💡 written in Solidity

This is a new era for EVM devs:
🧠 Contracts that think over time
🔁 React to events
📈 Scale beyond gas limits

Build with memory. Build without boundaries.

🚀 A New Design Space for EVM Apps

Steel 2.0 unlocks next-gen smart contracts with:
🔁 Event-Powered Logic
→ Use onchain events (swaps, votes, etc.) as verifiable inputs
→ No more trusting indexers 🧾

🕵️‍♂️ Historical State Queries
→ Access any storage slot or balance from any block since Dencun
→ No archive node. No bloat. Just pure ZK magic 🪄

Build smarter, time-aware contracts.
This is Solidity, leveled up.

🧠 Think Across Blocks. Think Steel.

Smart contracts are no longer trapped in a single block!
With Steel 2.0:
⛓️ Compute across any range of blocks
📊 Track averages, analyze trends, sum deposits — all off-chain, then prove on-chain
💸 Constant gas. Zero trust assumptions.

🌉 Cross Ethereum & OP Chains
Thanks to the newly audited R0-Helios lite client by @a16z, Steel can now:
🔗 Talk trustlessly across ETH L1 & OP chains
🔍 Fetch block hashes & compute beyond borders

🧱 Break Through the Block
No more 30M gas limits
No more complex infra
Just raw zk power & scalable EVM logic
