Cardano (ADA) Input Output Global developers have shared details of the latest phase of its rapid performance boost
Cardano (ADA), the largest Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network, is close to the most radical increase of its transactional capacity. With a new upgrade, Plutus scripts will be able to leverage more computational resources of the network.
Plutus memory unit limit to reach 56M per block on February 14
According to the official announcement shared by Input Output Global, a software development studio behind Cardano (ADA) blockchain solutions, its crucial performance upgrade has entered its final phase.
Starting from epoch 321, which is expected to come on Feb.14th at 09:44 pm (UTC), every Plutus script (Cardano-specific software program) will be able to harness 14 million memory units every Cardano (ADA) block instead of 12.5 million.
Thus, with Cardano’s total processor capacity set at 56 million memory units per block, it will support 4 Plutus scripts executed simultaneously by this or that dApp.
Once the update is deployed and activated, the IOG team will closely monitor the performance of the network for the entire next epoch (almost 5 days).
What’s next for Cardano (ADA)?
If the increase is insufficient, the developers of IOG will consider other short-term advancements in its design.
The upcoming upgrade is a part of Cardano’s transition towards Basho, a much-anticipated period of massive scaling improvements.
As previously reported by U.Today, in the post-Basho era, Cardano (ADA) will be suitable for sophisticated B2B use cases, as its transactional bandwidth will be much higher than that of its competitors.
The update is named after Matsuo Basho (born Kinsaku), a classic Japanese poet of 17th century.
