The immense success of the Shelley incentivized testnet seems to have left Cardano invigorated and ready to pick up the pace when it comes to development.
For a project that has been so widely criticized for its slow development, Cardano now seems to be moving at the speed of light.
Following the successful launch of the incentivized testnet for the Shelley era of the Cardano blockchain, the team behind the ambitious project seems to have crossed an important threshold that put its development into overdrive.
According to Charles Hoskinson, the CEO of IOHK, Cardano's parent company, the past few weeks have been "Illuminating." Not only has the company changed its product and project, but they've also significantly updated their management estimations, he said in a recent AMA. The company, known for its no-nonsense and transparent updates, has set up a new release cadence, with new updates and releases expected on a weekly basis.
All of the work that Cardano teams have been putting in won't be in vain.
The OBFT hard fork will most likely occur in February, but Hoskinson noted that Cardano is still "Interfacing" with its exchange partners about it in order to make sure all of the infrastructure necessary for the fork to occur is lined up.
At the end of 2019, he said that Cardano plans on setting up a regular communication schedule to keep the community informed about all of the in-house developments.
Hoskinson's effort to create a transparent communications channel between the team working on Cardano and the Cardano community seems to stem, at least in part, from his aversion towards crypto media.
The Cardano Foundation is already looking at master plans for the entire year to ensure that the blockchain the hackathons will work on "Is going where it needs to go."
"We're looking forward to having a hackathon or event every month in each major development area," Hoskinson said, adding that this is the best way to let people know that Cardano is a platform you can actually build on.
