Cardano: Alonzo Enters Final Stage, Smart Contracts On The Horizon

Cardano moves at full speed towards its final hard fork combinator (HFC) event Alonzo to implement full smart contract capabilities. The community has been keeping a close eye on the latest developments, as AlonzoPurple enters its final test stage. Input-Output Global, the company behind this blockchain and its development, recently disclosed that they submitted an upgrade proposal. This will allow the Cardano testnet to hard fork “into the Alonzo era”. ❗🍴 Today, we have just submitted an upgrade proposal to the #Cardano testnet to hardfork the chain into the #Alonzo era and enable smart....

Cardano’s Alonzo hard fork was a success but real utility could be a while

After the market “sells the news” after the successful Cardano Alonzo hard fork, there is a slow realization that real utility could still be on the distant horizon for the network. Cardano (ADA) reached a major milestone in its roadmap on Sep. 13 as its blockchain launched Plutus-powered smart contracts as a part of the Alonzo hard fork. The Alonzo hard fork has been highly anticipated in the Cardano community as well as the cryptocurrency sphere at large.The smart contract functionality is meant to allow Cardano to become a platform on which developers can build decentralized....

Waiting for Alonzo: Cardano smart contracts creep toward full launch

Smart contract deployment picks up the pace on Cardano’s testnets for the Alonzo, as project leadership says progress is still on track despite delays. The Cardano network is in the watershed phase of its network development and upgrades. The ongoing phase of the protocol’s roadmap is the Goguen phase, bringing smart contracts to the network. This is the third phase of the roadmap after Byron and Shelley. The Goguen phase was split into three stages, Allegra, Mary and Alonzo.The Allegra update went live on December 16 last year, and the Mary update was deployed on the mainnet on March 1....

Smart contracts have become a reality on the Cardano network after September 12th. After the Alonzo Hard Fork Combinator launch, developers could now go ahead and start creating smart contracts on the ecosystem. This would aid in developers creating decentralized applications (DApps) to provide decentralized finance (DeFi) services to the users of the blockchain. With the number of smart contracts that have been created on the network, it is no doubt that we are about to witness an influx of new decentralized apps on the network. The project has said that they are supporting developers in....
