Cardano’s Vasil upgrade goes live on testnet

Cardano (ADA) finally rolled out the Vasil upgrade to the testnet on June 3rd. InputOutput Hong Kong (IOHK) Announced.

The upgrade is ready for features that improve blockchain performance and interoperability.

according to Blog post Under the title “Cardano’s Approaching Vasil Upgrade: What to Expect,” IOHK described all the features and improvements that come with the hard fork.

The upgrade will significantly improve Cardano’s performance and capabilities as your network improves.

Vasil is written as follows:

The most important network upgrade since the deployment of staking through Shelley.

Vasil upgrade to improve Plutus

The network has focused on improving Plutus since the Alonzo hard fork. The new upgrade makes it easier for developers to build more powerful decentralized applications on Cardano.

In addition, it coordinates and optimizes the script validation process to increase transaction processing rates and improve block propagation consistency.

The upgrade is done using Cardano’s Hard Fork Combinator (HFC) to minimize network disruption.

In addition to improving the network’s smart contract capabilities, the upgrade is part of the Basho phase of the Cardano roadmap. This phase focuses on ledger scaling and optimization.

When will Vasil be rolled out to the mainnet?

According to the blog post, the testnet hard fork will last for four weeks, allowing developers, exchanges, and stakepool operators (SPOs) to test upgrades before they are rolled out to the mainnet.

The project needs to be checked for backward compatibility and the SPO needs to adjust the script.

The readiness of the developer and SPO determines when a hard fork in the mainnet occurs.

As a result, the mainnet update may occur by next month.

Meanwhile, ADA is trading at $ 0.4657. CryptoSlate data.
