Cardano has successfully&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/PoolShamrock/status/1830362933143957612">launched</a> the Alonzo hard fork, which marks a major milestone for the popular proof-of-stake blockchain.&nbsp;
As&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/cardanos-chang-hard-fork-suddenly-postponed-heres-why">reported by U.Today</a>, the hard fork was originally supposed to be launched in late August, but its debut was delayed since some centralized exchanges needed more time to prepare.&nbsp;
The hard fork has transitioned Cardano to Voltaire, the era of decentralized governance.&nbsp;
Notably, the major upgrade was named after Phil Inje Chang, the late product manager at Input Output who was responsible for Voltaire's development.&nbsp;
The hard fork has activated Plutus v3 with such capabilities as advanced cryptographic primitives, improved performance, better smart contract efficiency, and governance integration. "This is a very significant event as not only is community governance activated, but scalability and interoperability get a gigantic boost from the Plutus v3 deployment," Cardano advocate Rick McCracken explained in a social media post.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During his recent&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqvymw3gEeA">livestream</a>, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson said that the community is now "in the driver's seat." "Together, as an ecosystem, we gonna have to figure out the future," he added.&nbsp;
"Now, they have to judge Cardano based upon the merits of the community that can take a flag to Mount Everest, they have to judge it on the merits of a community that has more PhDs in it than any other one combined. They have to judge it on the merits of a community that has no face and, unlike Bitcoin, has the mandate and the ability to upgrade itself on a regular basis," Hoskinson stressed.&nbsp;
Despite the excitement surrounding the upgrade, the ADA price is down 3.1% over the past 24 hours. The token remains in 12th place by market cap.&nbsp;
