Input Output revealed that it has gotten assurance from stake pool operators (SPOs) and Dapp communities that they would be ready for the Vasil upgrade by Sept. 22.
The announcement also revealed that the majority of the leading exchanges have started their update process โ Binance has already started updating its Cardano nodes.
The company stated that it “anticipates a seamless technical transition, with no disruption for its users or a break in block production.”
The Vasil upgrade delay had drawn the consternation of the community with some alleging that the blockchain network operates in a “hush-hush culture.”
A Cardano developerย Adam Dean publicly said the Vasil testnet is “catastrophically broken,” with another developer Sebastien Guillemot saying Cardano developers are muzzled when talking about development roadblocks.
As of press time, Cardano’s ADA was trading for $0.45, after rising by 0.51% in the last 24 hours.
