Cardano Upgrades Ogmios to Version 6.7.0: Era Mismatch Errors Now Resolved

• Cardano’s Ogmios v6.7.0 update resolves era mismatch issues, ensuring smooth transaction upgrades across different blockchain phases.
• The new version automatically upgrades transactions from earlier eras like Alonzo, boosting efficiency and eliminating manual intervention.
• Cardano’s integration with DEX Screener enhances its visibility in the DeFi space, supporting various ADA-based liquidity pools.

Cardano (ADA) has released a significant update to its blockchain infrastructure, addressing long standing era mismatch issues. The upgrade, Ogmios v6.7.0, improves transaction handling across different phases of the network’s consensus evolution. With this update, Cardano strengthens its blockchain by providing seamless interaction between older and newer transaction eras.

Cardano(ADA)   Era Mismatch Issues Addressed

Ogmios v6.7.0, released on September 13, 2024, solves a critical problem in the Cardano network, where transactions from earlier eras would often trigger errors. Previously, the network encountered issues when transactions from the Babbage or Alonzo eras were submitted during the current Conway era. These mismatches could result in the ledger rejecting valid transactions.

Automatic Transaction Upgrades

With the latest update, Cardano’s system now automatically upgrades transactions from previous eras upon submission. This streamlined process ensures that any transactions created before the Alonzo era can be processed smoothly within the current consensus. Matthias Benkort, Cardano Foundation’s tech director, emphasized that this solution eliminates manual intervention, providing greater efficiency.

The upgrade comes shortly after Cardano entered the Conway era, a phase marked by the activation of the Chang hard fork. This transition represents the latest step in Cardano’s ongoing development and improves the network’s capacity to handle transactions across multiple eras without conflict. Ogmios v6.7.0 is part of a broader strategy to refine Cardano’s blockchain infrastructure.

Integration with DeFi Platforms

In addition to the era mismatch resolution, the Cardano ecosystem recently achieved another milestone. Its liquidity pools were integrated into DEX Screener, a popular decentralized finance (DeFi) browsing platform. This integration enables better visibility and tracking of ADA-based liquidity mechanisms, further enhancing the network’s participation in the DeFi space.

Cardano continues to innovate and expand its blockchain capabilities. The availability of Ogmios v6.7.0 in the official Cardano GitHub repository showcases the platform’s commitment to addressing community needs while enhancing the blockchain’s functionality. The update ensures that Cardano remains at the forefront of blockchain technology, solidifying its position as a leading proof-of-stake network.
