Cardano’s highly anticipated hard fork launch has been delayed according to an official announcement. Cardano developer Input Output has officially confirmed that the launch of the Vasil hard fork has been delayed to the end of July.
In a recent blog post, delivery and product manager Nigel Hemsley said the much-anticipated update “should not be rushed.” The developer team wants to make sure everything is done right, emphasizing that quality and safety are “extremely important.” As we reported earlier, rumors about the delay started circulating on Twitter a few days before the official confirmation.
The launch was normally expected to take place on June 29. According to the updated schedule, it is now scheduled for the end of July. So after that, cryptocurrency exchanges and stake pool operators will have roughly a month to test the new upgrade. About 80% of the trading platforms need to be compatible for the fork to be launched on the mainnet.
