7月のShelleyメインネット配信は、Cardanoのステーキングと委任に新たな扉を開きました。以来、コミュニティによる支援は高まりを見せ、1200のステークプールが作成されました。その多くが成功しており、可視性または管理ステーク数、あるいはその両方において、コミュニティの中でも早期の利を得ています。と同時に、一部のプールはまだ頭角を現していません。kが最適でなく、飽和閾値が高く設定されていることにより、最初のブロック生成に至っていないプールにとっては特に厳しい状況となっています。

これは変わろうとしてます。12月6日（日本時間7日）、Shelley配信時に150に設定されたkパラメーターが50…

Stake pool operations lie at the heart of Cardano decentralization, enabling servers to reach a consensus agreement across the network. Our groundbreaking Ouroboros proof-of-stake consensus protocol allows pool operators to reach agreement on the validity of transactions and sign a block, which is then immutably recorded on the Cardano blockchain.

On the Shelley path to…

As a project, decentralization remains arguably our most important and fundamental goal for Cardano. Protocols and parameters provide the foundations for any blockchain. Last week, we outlined some of the planned changes around Cardano parameters and how these will impact the staking ecosystem and thus accelerate our decentralization mission.

Yet the community itself – how it sees itself, how it behaves, and how it sets common standards – is a key factor in the pace of this success. Cardano has been very carefully engineered to provide “by design” all the necessary properties for a blockchain system to operate successfully. However, Cardano is also a social…

Shelley continues to evolve and, as it does, IOHK is committed to supporting the healthy development of the Cardano ecosystem. There are many factors at play in this regard: everything from the wallet experience for ada delegators to network tools for stake pool operators; from governance and funding frameworks like Project Catalyst and Voltaire to community-led initiatives…

Simon Peyton Jones has just announced the launch of the Haskell Foundation at the Haskell eXchange virtual conference. The foundation is an independent, open, non-profit organization dedicated to broadening the adoption of the Haskell language, by supporting its ecosystem of tools, libraries, education, and research.

IOHK is one of the first sponsors of the Haskell Foundation…
