Charles Hoskinson has unveiled the new timeline for the implementation of the hard fork Vasil says it will take place in September.
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has revealed several details of the new roadmap for the implementation of the hard fork Vasil, including the co-founder of Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK) says the upgrade will take place in 2022 September, as long as no new issues appear and the development team approves the official implementation.
Last week, the IOHK team already reported via Twitter the status of the update, explaining that they are currently in implementation process on major exchangesAccording to the Twitter thread, almost half of the SPOs (Staking Pool Operators) had already upgraded.
However, in the video of Charles Hoskinson, This indicates that More than 75% of SPOs have already been updated, which means that the final implementation of the update would be almost ready and, therefore, the IOHK team will be able to reveal the final date in a short time.
“Usually what happens is that after the final date of a meeting is announced, hard fork“There’s a huge rush of people to do it. So what’s likely to happen is that once we hit the 75% SPO target and three to five of the top exchanges by volume have upgraded, a definitive date will be set. Then the rest of the exchanges will feel the urgency to keep up and start upgrading,” Charles Hoskinson says in the video.
La hard fork Vasil a necessary milestone for decentralization
La hard fork Vasiltogether The Merge, will be the two big events in the crypto industry this year. In the case of the Cardano update, Vasil will mark a new era of decentralization for the network.
Cardano's decentralization is based on three fundamental pillars: Block production, the network and governance. Although independent, the three pillars are intrinsically linked and work in a synchronized manner.
For the moment, Cardano has achieved decentralization of block production, which is already an important step. However, it still has to complete the process of decentralizing the Cardano network.
Cardano's network layer is a physical infrastructure that combines nodes and their interaction into a unified system. This layer is designed to distribute information about transactions and block creation between all nodes operating at this point.
To achieve maximum network efficiency, nodes must have minimal communication delay while also being highly resilient to failures, capacity constraints, or attacks.
For the moment, Cardano's network layer is based on the TCP/IP stack, which ensures relatively fast and secure data delivery between nodes. The setup relies on a centralized tool called a “topology updater.”
La hard fork Vasil will replace this tool with a P2P network, which is expected to improve the flow of information between nodes and eliminate the need to use centralized services. In this way, Cardano will be a fully decentralized network, as the components of the P2P network will be a P2P governor, a connection manager, an input protocol governor, and a server.
The implementation of a P2P network in Cardano has been one of the most anticipated updates by the community, since in addition to allowing complete decentralization, it also facilitates the implementation of full nodes such as Daedalus to improve block propagation.
