Input Output say the discovery of unforeseen bugs has delayed Cardano's Vasil upgrade release as developers need more time.
Charles Hoskinson says even going slow and steady, Cardano was the first for eUTXO and one of the first to market for Proof-of-Stake.
The Vasil hard fork will significantly enhance Cardano's performance and capability in line with the consistent improvements on the network.
Spokesperson Kaaran Kalantari explains how WingRiders usurped the competition during this challenging time.
IO announced that the changes to the Cardano testnet will take effect on July 3, while the mainnet will go through the Vasil hard fork four weeks after that.
In front of a Congressional hearing, Hoskinson spoke cogently, and appeared relaxed, in making a case for more equitable regulatory treatment for the cryptocurrency industry.
Frustrations mount over Vasil being delayed, but Charles Hoskinson said it's necessary to avoid a repeat of the Terra LUNA/UST disaster.
Developers will now be able to build Solidity-based applications on Cardano using the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) sidechain.
