Cardano (ADA) is upgrading from “Byron” over to “Shelley”. According to an announcement from the project:



“We’ve
been successfully running node v 1.14.2 on the Shelley public testnet
for over a week now. And we can confirm that we’ll deploy the new node
to the Cardano mainnet… today, 30th June as per the first date in the
rollout plan.”



Shelley offers greater
decentralization and lays the groundwork for Goguen, which will
introduce smart contracts. The Shelley version of Daedalus wallet has
been released as well.
