Cardano (ADA) postpones long-awaited Vasil hard fork again

 


After Cardano failed to launch the long-awaited Vasil hard fork last month, the upgrade has now been postponed again to ensure the smoothest possible transition.


Input Output Global (IOG), the lead company behind the development of Cardano, accordingly confirmed in a video announcement on Thursday that Vasil is being pushed back again.


Kevin Hammond, IOG's Technical Director, explains that the hard fork will be suspended one last time to ensure that everyone involved, including crypto exchanges and API developers, are ready for the transition. To that end he states:


"At the current stage of development, it's perfectly fine if we wait a few more weeks for the Vasil hard fork. [...] This is very important, so we need to make sure everyone involved is ready to make the transition go smoothly.”

Meanwhile, as Hammond states, IOG has been working to iron out the final issues of the upgrade and released Node version 1.35.2 a few days ago . This version cleans up bugs that occurred in the tests at stake pool operators, decentralized applications (DApps) and in other areas.


“Our goal is to remove the last stumbling blocks before we start with Vasil. That's why we test thoroughly and fix the errors without rushing," says the Technical Director.


In the run-up to the upgrade, Cardano ( ADA ) can increase significantly, the cryptocurrency has recently made a jump of more than 7% and thus catapulted itself back above 0.5 US dollars . In the last 14 days, there has been a whopping plus of 21%.

The Vasil hard fork is the biggest upgrade for Cardano since the Alonzo hard fork deployed in September 2021. The new hard fork is seen by many as a real "game changer", as it should bring significant improvements in terms of speed and scalability of the network, which in turn makes it all the more interesting for smart contracts and DApps.

Cardano price forecast – price breaks out! Are we near $1.5 soon?

 In our last Cardano price prediction , we wrote that the price could break out soon. The reason for this was a symmetrical triangle. This triangle was performed after the crash, so we expected the price to break down. But now the course has broken out of the triangle in a bullish manner. But how far could the course rise or what is the goal? Today we will explain to you about the Cardano course ! Cardano price broke out of the triangle and was able to rally to the $1.19 resistance. We tested this resistance, and a short time later the price was sold off. The triangle's target was around $1.23, so we now believe the price has completed the target. As a result, we no longer expect a further increase. Instead, the price could now descend and possibly form new lows. If the price breaks the $1.19 resistance, the price could rally to around $1.5. There is the next resistance where the Cardano price could bounce. If Cardano price fails to break the $1.19 resistance, we would expect the p...

Cardano founder doubts Bitcoin's future as world reserve currency

  Cardano's founder doesn't believe Bitcoin has what it takes to become the world's leading currency. Charles Hoskinson stated in a recent interview that he didn't think Bitcoin would become the world reserve currency. According to the founder of Cardano, a cryptocurrency with smart contract features would become the global reserve currency. Hoskinson believes Cardano or Ethereum would become the world reserve currency. A global reserve currency must offer services like smart contracts, metadata standards, and improved throughput that complete enormous transactions per second. According to the Cardano founder , the scarcity of Bitcoin is due to the high cost of production: "If you make paintings, one of which you have to paint by hand and the other by machine, and both look the same and the demand for both is the same, then the effort for one is a thousand times greater than for the other." Hoskinson spoke about Bitcoin's massive energy consumption, addin...
