Following the shared success working alongside the wider #Cardano community on the #Vasil upgrade, IOG is keen to keep up the positive momentum by sharing resources which [#support] & empower developers and creators. ๐งต1/6
On September 27th, Plutus V2 functionality became available for developers on #Cardano [#mainnet]. Dapps utilizing new Plutus V2 scripts & cost model are already seeing the power of #Vasil upgrade.
Join us on Thursday for the September edition of #Cardano360, with the latest on #Vasil, more on Mithril, IOGโs new Haskell Bootcamp plus updates on three [#exciting] events [#coming] this fall.
Today, the team has successfully submitted the Plutus V2 cost model to [#mainnet], making full #Vasil capability available to devs after the next epoch, Sept. 27.
This week on Sept 22, IOG together with @CardanoStiftung triggered the [#hard_fork] combinator event to deploy #Vasil at the protocol level. Full Vasil functionality will become available to developers on [#mainnet] on Sept 27.
Weโre [#happy_to] [#announce] that today, at 21:44:00 UTC, the IOG team, in collaboration with the @CardanoStiftung, successfully [#hard_fork]ed the Cardano [#mainnet] via a HFC event, thus deploying new #Vasil features to the chain. ๐งถ1/5
Full Vasil capability will become [#available_on] the 27th September, along with the activation of the Plutus V2 cost model, delivering lower transaction costs for smart contracts.
A little later today, at 21:44:00 UTC, weโll see the #Vasil upgrade start deployment on the #Cardano [#mainnet] via a [#hard_fork] combinator (HFC) event. The team here is ready to go and so is the community! #ReadyForVasil 1/7
A joint IOG/@CardanoStiftung team will use the [#hard_fork] combinator to deploy #Vasil at the protocol level on September 22nd. The new capabilities will become available for developers to utilize on [#mainnet] exactly one epoch later, on Sept 27th. https://t.co/RY5Pnx1flw
Vasil Update: This weekend, a joint @CardanoStiftung & IOG team successfully submitted an update proposal to the chain, setting the #Vasil upgrade in motion for 22nd September.
Thanks to all the technical community for their [#support] over past months in getting us to here.๐
#Vasil is the most ambitious update program for #Cardano to date. With such a complex upgrade with multiple stakeholders, we need to be confident the ecosystem is ready & prepared before any [#hard_fork] is triggered
In this guest blog post, @artano__io, one of the projects #BuildingOnCardano, share key development takeaways theyโve learned while upgrading & preparing for a smooth transition to #Vasil on [#mainnet].
