Cardano ADA 1.2 updates & 2nd TestNet “IELE” to be launched in July

This update according to the Cardano team is the first time a complete semantics of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) has been produced.

Gerard Moroney of IOHK shared his thoughts with:

“The KEVM TestNet, a correct by construction version of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) specified in the K framework. This technology, produced by Runtime Verification with the support of IOHK, is the first time that a complete formal semantics of the EVM have been produced. This is an important first in cryptocurrency that is a necessary step towards the promise of third-generation blockchains.”

The crypto community has been really enthusiastic and eager for this update that made several changes to the wallet along with fixing the bugs, Daedalus issue and much more.

After this launch, the second TestNet called IELE is set to be launched in July. IELE is a new virtual machine whose release means developers will be able to write, compile and execute the smart contract with better performance and improved security.

The first TestNet launch has brought a good rise in Cardano ADA price. The second update is expected to increase ADA’s market value which might even take its prices to the moon. It’s all wait and see for now about how June goes and what July brings forward!
