As part of its network optimization efforts, Cardano developer Input Output reported that the blockchain’s block size is on target to expand by 11%.
Cardano’s block size will increase to 80 kilobytes (KB) from 72 kilobytes now (KB). Cardano’s blocks will be able to carry more transactions as a result of this. The blockchain must process more traffic as a rising number of projects emerge on the mainnet. Due to increased use, blockchain traffic surged over 90% last month, highlighting the urgent need to scale up the network. According to data given by Cardano Blockchain Insights, nearly all blocks are still full as of February 1, with the average load being above 85%. Plutus memory limitations would also be increased from 12.5 million to 14 million units each transaction. The previous increase, according to U. Today, occurred in January.
The new enhancements will take effect on February 4th. They’ll make it easier for Cardano-based decentralised applications (dApps) to scale as demand grows.
That’s all new happening with Cardano. Wrap!
