−0.5%Cardano launches public Dijkstra testnet ahead of node 11.2 upgrade
Image: Crypto.newsCardano's public Dijkstra testnet is now live for stake pool operators. The testnet runs on node 11.1.3 and will test the Dijkstra hard‑fork features using node 11.2 before the protocol version 12 upgrade. The testnet includes the full Dijkstra feature set except the Leios component. Configuration files and a faucet are available on Cardano Book. CIP‑23's minPoolMargin parameter is confirmed in the scope for future development.
Key points
- Cardano opened a public Dijkstra testnet for stake pool operators.
- The testnet runs on node 11.1.3 and will be used to test features for the upcoming protocol version 12 hard fork.
- The Dijkstra hard fork includes all features except the Leios upgrade.
- CIP‑23, adding a minimum pool margin parameter, is fully included in the Dijkstra scope.
What's unclear
The mainnet activation date for the Dijkstra hard fork has not been disclosed.
The required percentage of operators that must upgrade their software before the hard fork is unknown.
