Cardano (ADA) Upgrade Ogmios v6.7.0 Just Landed: What's New

Cardano Foundation tech director Matthias Benkort announces release of new Cardano (ADA) node client

The novel release of Ogmios, a Cardano-node bridge interface responsible for the interaction with Ouroboros via JSON/RPC endpoints, addresses the issues with the so-called transactions era mismatch, CF open source tech director says.

Cardano (ADA) era mismatch errors are gone with Ogmios v6.7.0 release

Cardano (ADA), a major proof-of-stake (PoS) network, received an upgrade for Ogmios, a crucial component of its node software stack. Ogmios v6.7.0 release is focused on fixing the issues with transactions from previous "Eras," i.e., phases of Cardano (ADA) consensus maturation.

As explained by Cardano Foundation tech director Matthias Benkort, with the new software activated, the system automatically upgrades transactions from previous eras (up until Alonzo) on submission.

Published Sept. 13, 2024, Ogmios v6.7.0 is designed to address the issue where the ledger would complain about receiving a transaction in an invalid era (typically Babbage or Alonzo) while being in a more recent era (typically Conway).

As covered by U.Today previously, Cardano (ADA) ushered into Conway era with the activation of its long-anticipated Chang hard fork.
