A lot of significant developments have taken place on the Cardano blockchain in recent months; as a consequence of the network’s expansion, the average blockchain load has been steadily increasing.
In particular, the average blockchain load over the previous eight days, beginning on January 19, has stayed above 90%, with the most recent reading on January 26 standing at 93.2%. This is the first time the system has ever achieved this level of blockchain load, and it is also sustaining the metrics, which is even more astounding.
Cardano reached the 90th percentile for the first time on January 16, and the climb in the average blockchain load has been supported by the introduction of smart contract capabilities, which has enhanced network activity, as seen by a spike in a variety of indicators.
