"Back in September 2021, Celo announced a partnership with Mysten Labs to improve the throughput of the Celo blockchain via an advanced mempool protocol, the Narwhal, and Tusk consensus.
Additionally, Mysten Labs would also provide support for the Move virtual machine to facilitate the migrations of frequently utilized Celo core contracts, such as cUSD and cEUR.
Lastly, to enhance self-custody efforts for users, Mysten Labs would also add the KELP key recovery protocol to Celo, allowing users to recover their private keys despite losing their mobile devices."
