On 22 September 2022, the IOG team announced the successful deployment of the Vasil upgrade. Thanks to the hard-fork combinator, the event took place without the need to stop the network and users did not even notice the change. However, a major change in the Cardano network enhancement has occurred and users will sooner or later recognize it, mainly due to lower fees and higher network scalability.
TLDR
- Vasil started a new Babbage era and brought Plutus V2.
- Vasil upgrade reduced transaction fees by roughly 50% and transaction size by about 10x.
- Vasil confirmed the technological edge of the Cardano platform.
