Furthermore, the team added several updates until then to disregard critics. The recent update introduced the Hard-Fork Enhancements from Vasil to strengthen Cardano’s capability (as the Cardano Foundation confirmed).
Meanwhile, the developers named the upgrade after the late Bulgarian member Vasil Dabov, who assumed the CBA (Chief Blockchain Advisor) roles at Quanterall software R&D company before his December last year passing.
Meanwhile, the awaited upgrade will improve block transmission time, script efficiency, and throughput. Also, it utilized Cardano’s HFC (hard fork combinatory) technology. The blog revealed plans to remove the d-parameter (decentralization parameter) to prevent re-federation.
Also, Cardano’s upgrade will bring changes that improve on-chain script handling. That would lessen script execution costs, improve throughput, and enhance transaction size. Indeed, the Vasil is Cardano’s most ambitious upgrade.
