Cardano’s Leios Upgrade: Speeding Up Blockchain Performance While Maintaining Decentralization

Cardano’s upcoming Leios upgrade promises to deliver speeds similar to Solana, a blockchain renowned for its fast transactions. This ambitious update tackles the blockchain trilemma, aiming to achieve the three crucial elements of scalability, security, and decentralization in tandem. By introducing a new transaction processing method, Leios aims to boost Cardano’s speed without sacrificing its decentralized foundation. Charles Hoskinson, Cardano’s founder and CEO of IOHK, highlights how Leios will scale significantly while remaining resistant to central points of failure.
