Cardano's platform development is gaining momentum. This week, the development team executed significant updates aimed at improving network performance and creating new opportunities for its users.
Key updates on Cardano this week
According to the developers' blog, the Cardano team conducted key upgrades affecting the network's core technology, development, and scaling. Node version was updated from 10.1.1 to 10.1.2. The DB Sync team worked on a prerelease of version 13.6.0.0, compatible with node v.10.1.0. Decentralized submission was implemented for governance actions via cardano-cli, proving reliable and moderately scalable.
Major changes since Cardano's Voltaire upgrade
Since transitioning to the Voltaire era, the final phase of decentralization, Cardano has seen significant improvements. Node v.10.1.2 introduced community-driven command improvements, particularly from stake pool operators. The number of unique delegators increased from 13,835 to 16,902, while vote delegations grew from 15,060 to 18,366.
Future prospects and development plans
The Cardano team continues to develop new solutions for scaling improvements. The Mithril team is working on a new distribution release and setting up a routine to ensure backward compatibility. Solutions for signer registration with multiple aggregators in the Mithril network are also being explored.
Cardano's updates demonstrate the team's commitment to ongoing platform development. These improvements not only enhance the network's technical capabilities but also facilitate more effective use of decentralized governance opportunities.
