- Cardano’s Node 9.1.0 launch is pivotal for the Chang Hard Fork, marking significant progress in on-chain decision-making.
- While ADA’s price hasn’t surged yet, the upgrade holds potential for a future rally similar to the Alonzo Hard Fork.
Following the innovative launch of Cardano Ogmios v6.4.0, we reported last month, Cardano has launched Node 9.1.0, which is crucial for the upcoming Chang Hard Fork upgrade. This node introduces the final version needed to implement on-chain decision-making within the Cardano ecosystem. The Dawn of the Chang Hard Fork Era is equipped with a crucial feature, the Conway genesis file, which differentiates it from the previous Node 9.0.0.
This launch was announced by Intersect on X and confirmed by Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson on his personal X account. The Chang Hard Fork upgrade, initially scheduled for the first half of 2024, is expected to significantly advance Cardano’s infrastructure and capabilities.
Node 9.1.0 is here!
The final version to bring on-chain decision making to Cardano is here. As with all hard-forks, Cardano upgrades when the community is ready.

However, unlike the previous update, as discussed in the CNF earlier report, which drove ADA price up 10% as 159 projects launched on Cardano, accompanied by 9.62M native tokens and 84.2M transactions, this upgrade is still taking its time to hit the expected surge. Previous upgrades like the Alonzo Hard Fork in 2021 had a substantial positive impact on ADA’s price, suggesting potential similar outcomes with the Chang Hard Fork.
The upgrade could potentially lead to a price rally, as it is expected to break the upper boundary of the wedge pattern. As of now, according to CoinMarketCap data today, Cardano (ADA) is trading at $0.3966, with a decrease of 2.47% in the past day and 5.75% in the past week. See ADA price chart below.
