Mining infrastructure is a weakness that can bring down Bitcoin

The Core Input-Output Global (IOG) team working to facilitate the Cardano Testnet upgrade recently announced that it had agreed to delay sending the Vasil Hard Fork update proposal as previously stated. The team indicated that about seven outstanding bugs, none of which were ranked as serious, needed delays.

According to a June 20 blog post, the decision to suspend Hard Fork follows the original team’s weekend evaluation call. Noting that the team has passed 95% of the Plutus V2 test scripts, the post says that the original team still needs to run a few outstanding items to make sure everything is working as expected.
