Protocol 20 Release Schedule
Protocol 20 will mark the most transformative upgrade to the Stellar network to date. And to preserve the network's performance, security, and stability during this time, the ecosystem has agreed that a slow and steady process makes a lot of sense. So, following the upgrade vote, validators will deploy a phased approach to gradually and responsibly increase capacity for Soroban transactions to monitor the impact of smart contract functionality on the network.
Installation
