Charles Hoskinson, the CEO of IOHK (Cardano’s parent firm) has discussed the recent release of Daedalus wallet v2.2 and the new version of the node software v1.19. Hoskinson noted that both the upgrades include some “significant performance improvements.”
Some aspects of the software are 100 times faster, and QA is reporting that everything looks pretty good so far.
IOHK launched Daedalus 1.0 back in April. It is a full-node hierarchical deterministic (HD) wallet and ensures a high level of security. The CEO praised the wallet development team, which achieved substantial enhancements in the node software within a short period.
Cardano unveiled the highly-anticipated Shelley upgrade in July, finally enabling staking. The first community pools started minting blocks recently, marking the start of the firm’s journey to becoming fully decentralized. Hoskinson expects things to become “crazy” for the project by the end of 2020.
