On June 18th, Paradigm launched Alloy v0.1, a codebase for interacting with Ethereum. Alloy is a complete rewrite of the low-level building blocks needed to interact with the EVM blockchain, from RPC types to ABI encoders and primitive types, for the replacement of ethers-rs. Alloy v0.1 includes all the utilities, multiple API improvements, and new features needed to interact with the EVM-based blockchain. As part of this release, Paradigm will also officially discontinue maintenance of ethers-rs and encourage all to migrate to Alloy.
