Preparations ongoing for Chang upgrade

The Chang upgrades, the first of which is anticipated for August 2024 (assuming community preparation), are expected to be a transformative event for Cardano, marking a critical milestone in its upgrade roadmap.

Chang is effectively the first hard fork on the Cardano network during the Voltaire phase of the project’s roadmap.

As Cardano eagerly awaits the Chang upgrade, the focus has shifted toward extensive testing. This is crucial to ensure that all systems are robust and fully prepared for the upcoming transition to the Conway era.

The Lace team is currently preparing for the release of Lace v.1.14, which is expected to be ready in the next couple of weeks.

With the release of Cardano node v.9.0.0, an alert has been issued to all node users to upgrade to this version of the node in preparation for the Chang upgrade. SPOs will only need to include a small configuration update (node 9.1.0) to be fully up-to-date.

A hard fork combinator event can occur once nearly 75% of SPOs have upgraded to cardano-node 9.1.0.
