Cardano moving slowly towards major update

• Cardano’s creator shared plans on the project development.
• ADA/USD recovers from recent lows, remains under pressure.

The creator and founder of Cardano (ADA), the 10th largest digital asset with the current market value of $1.7 billion, shared his plans on the project development.

He said that he and his colleagues were focused on creating an innovative product, based on new ideas. Answering criticism about the delays in Cardano network upgrade known as Shelley, he explained that the work on Cardano project is time consuming as it requires a lot of in-depth research. That’s why no one can guarantee that the deadlines are met, even of the researches and developers do the best they can.

“Generally speaking, when this happens in industry, what happens is that the R&D phase concludes before it’s consumerized or productized “¦ So you guys see the end result of projects,” he said.  

Shelley upgrade will make proof-of-stake (PoS)-based Cardano protocol “fully decentralized”.
