Cardano Node and Backend Update:

It has been a busy fortnight for IOG, as they continue to enhance and optimise the #Cardano #Shelley platform. Last week, they released a host of upgrades inc. a new #Cardano wallet backend, adding transaction metadata support and enhanced performance for exchanges and 3rd party wallets.

Earlier today (yesterday for some), they’ve deployed a number of additional upgrades to mainnet, including new node version 1.20.0. This release further optimises performance for SPOs by reducing CPU and memory usage at the end of each epoch.

The new node also contains node-level pool ranking enhancements and saturation calculations which will be integrated into the next Daedalus release to continue to improve the delegation experience.

Please stay on the lookout for more updates to come for Daedalus! 💪 💻 🧱⛓

The full uncut conversation between Charles Hoskinson and Ben Goertzel!

SingularityNET Foundation and leading blockchain research and development company IOHK, have today announced that they are planning to port a significant portion of the SingularityNET decentralized protocol and platform from Ethereum to Cardano.

This would involve providing mechanisms for swapping some of the current (Ethereum-based) ERC-20 AGI tokens to Cardano-based AGI tokens, and also creating analogues of the Solidity smart contracts underlying aspects of the SingularityNET platform using Cardano’s new Plutus smart contract language.

IOHK and SingularityNET, CEOs Charles Hoskinson and Ben Goertzel sit down here for a wide-ranging discussion of the future of technology. The conversation at the University of Wyoming Blockchain Stampede touches on the intersection of decentralization and artificial intelligence. SingularityNET is working with Cardano on the shared goal of pushing power to the edges of the world through the application of next-generation technology.
