Cardano (ADA) and its ecosystem are ready for big update
According to a recent post by IOG, many exchanges support the Vasil update. Binance, OKX, Gate.io, BitMart, Bitcub Official, Bitmark Exchange, and Litebiteu reported their readiness.

Just two days ago, Cardano parent company IOG reported five exchanges confirming their readiness.
Last month, IOG stated that it will track three key factors that led to the launch of Cardano’s Vasil upgrade:
- The final node should make up 75 percent of the mainnet blocks. Last Vasil node version 1.35.3 was used in pre-production environment and Vasil devnet. It was released last month.
- Second, more than 25 exchanges also needed to be updated before the upgrade. This meant that the number would represent 80 percent of the liquidity.

94 percent of mainnet blocks are ready for Vasil

Not SHIB – whales increase ADA activity

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson points to “macro factor dominance” for the ecosystem. He explains that this is more vital than ever. cryptocoin.com “Cardano has never been stronger before,” said Hoskinson, as we reported earlier.
Also, “many other projects are robust across the industry, but you don’t see that reflected in prices yet. You only see a sea of red. But macro factors always win,” he said. At the time of writing, Cardano is changing hands at $0.513, down 0.4% in the last 24 hours. Time will tell which levels we will see after the upgrade.
