Mr. Hoskinson announced that the Cardano (ADA) blockchain will achieve a major milestone next week. Its mechanism will enter the stage of 'friends & family' testing. According to the leader of Cardano (ADA), this process of testing within the Haskell Shelley testnet will bring 'a lot of fun'.

Mr. Hoskinson also revealed the next steps towards the long-awaited decentralization of the network. After the closed testnet, Cardano (ADA) will be open for public testing.
