Cardano Unveils Dijkstra Roadmap: Leios in 2026, Peras by 2027

The roadmap's significance lies less in any single upgrade than in the sequencing: Leios first, Peras later, with a multi-year horizon that commits Cardano to a scaling path running well beyond the current cycle. That timetable is the real test, since Cardano's history has been marked by delayed deliveries, and the gap between announcing Leios and Peras and shipping them leaves ample room for slippage. What matters next is whether the stated order holds and whether Leios arrives on schedule, since that would set expectations for Peras and for how the network's performance claims are judged.
