Cardano plans a two-phase Dijkstra upgrade with Phase 1 aiming for code completion in Q4 2026, introducing Ouroboros Linear Leios to increase transaction throughput via supplementary Endorser Blocks. This phase also adds nested transactions, guard scripts, and ledger improvements. Phase 2, targeted for Q2 2027, will activate Ouroboros Peras to speed up settlement through stake-pool voting. Both phases require extensive testing and governance approval before mainnet activation, with timelines subject to change based on readiness.
