    4. The Cardano community is gearing up for the Chang hard fork, scheduled for September 1, 2024. This date was confirmed by Intersect, marking a significant achievement driven by the collective efforts of the community.

    Chang Hard Fork Date

    In a tweet on August 28, 2024, Intersect announced that the hard fork working group had reached a consensus to upgrade Cardano's mainnet on September 1, 2024. This event marks a pivotal point for Cardano, bringing it closer to community-driven governance.

    The hard fork working group has reached consensus & agreed to upgrade mainnet on September 1st 2024! A big thank you to all the work across the ecosystem - getting #ReadyforChang has been a huge community effort.None

    Preparation for the Hard Fork

    On August 23, the hard fork working group agreed to target September 1 for the Chang upgrade. The initial target date was August 27; however, after a follow-up meeting, the date was postponed to September 1 to give exchanges and dApps additional time to implement necessary adjustments.

    Partnerships and Testing

    The Chang hard fork will bring on-chain governance to Cardano, moving the network closer to achieving the ultimate goal of its final roadmap phase (Voltaire) and attaining long-term self-sustainability through democratic decision-making. Testing continues on SanchoNet, a testnet network created in Q3, 2023, for developing and testing on-chain governance processes and tools. In June, Cardano formalized several partnerships in Argentina, including collaborations with the province of Entre Rios, the University of Buenos Aires, and the National Technological University (UTN). These partnerships aim to boost Cardano education in the region and explore the potential for using the network for Argentinian use cases.

    The announcement of the Chang hard fork is a significant step in Cardano's journey towards decentralized governance and long-term sustainability. Ongoing developments and partnerships will continue to strengthen the network and its capabilities.
