Cardano’s Chаng Hard Fork is Almost Here – Here is What You Need to Know
Intersect has announced that Cardano’s Chang Hard Fork will take place on September 1, 2024, at 21:45 UTC.
This update is a significant milestone in Cardano’s shift towards full decentralization.
The decision to proceed was made after extensive discussions among key Cardano stakeholders, including Intersect, Emurgo, the Cardano Foundation, and Input|Output.
Initial concerns over liquidity—only 28% of exchanges were updated—have been addressed, with current readiness levels showing strong support. Around 92% of Stake Pool Operators (SPOs) and over 90% of exchanges are now prepared. Additionally, over half of the value locked in Decentralized Applications (DApps) indicates solid adoption.
