Today, we’re releasing new TEST versions of Daedalus as part of the final mile toward the #Vasil upgrade.

Preview 5.0.0 and Preprod 5.0.0 are test-only versions of the #Daedalus wallet for devs and SPOs working in the preview and pre-production testing environments. 🧵

1/4
Preview is an early-stage testing network for testing mature release candidates and new functionality. Pre-production mimics a production (mainnet) configuration and is the most mature network for final stage testing purposes.

The IOG & @CardanoStiftung teams – plus the whole dev and SPO community – continue to work hard preparing for the #Vasil upgrade, bringing multiple enhancements to #Cardano.

Here’s a quick recap of where we’re at and what you can expect…👇

Thread🧵
1/9
A new node version - 1.35.3 - has been released for use on the Vasil dev net and the new pre-production environment. As long as we do not encounter any significant new issues, this will be the version with which we’ll trigger the #Vasil upgrade on mainnet.
🧵2/9
This new pre-production environment has been set up to provide a ‘clean’ and more agile environment to test against 1.35.3 for exchanges and SPOs. We invite SPOs, developers #BuildingOnCardano, and exchanges to commence their final testing and integration processes.
