Node v.10.1.2, an update to the previously released v.10.1.1, capable of crossing the Chang #2 hard fork, was released in November. This week, minor node release 10.1.3, which addresses Issue #4772, was announced. Plan 529 was also introduced, named after Epoch 529, which begins on Dec. 20, 2024, at 9:44 p.m. UTC and is the most likely date for the mainnet hard fork governance action to be initiated.
The Epoch 529 plan provides the best opportunity for the SPOs and ICC to vote to ratify the hard fork in January 2025, as ratification and enactment can occur at any Epoch boundary between Jan. 4 and 29, 2025.
As regards smart contract development, the Plutus team completed its work on serializing Agda-proof objects, bringing them closer to delivering a useful tool for certified compilation. A CIP to add modules to Untyped Plutus Core is currently being worked on.
A new version of the Protocol Insights dashboard, along with the v.2445.0 distribution, was released. The hard fork working group proposed naming the second hard fork in the Chang upgrade the Plomin hard fork, in honor of Matthew Plomin, USDM's president and cofounder who died unexpectedly in November, and the proposal has already been adopted.
The Cardano constitution was recently approved — a significant step forward for Cardano and the crypto industry. Next, it is up to the Cardano community whether or not to ratify it, expected to be submitted on-chain in January 2025. <a href="https://u.today/cardano-crosses-100-million-transactions-in-epic-november-growth" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read original article on U.Today</a>
