Plutus v1 needs to die💀 50% of smart contract transactions use Plutus v1, but they account for 90% of their size in blocks! This means users could have about ten time more bandwidth in blocks if they stopped using v1 dApps. Govern with your wallet, stop using v1 dApps!

40% of Cardano blockchain, 60/150GB are PlutusV1 scripts duplicated over & over again. It's because scripts can't be referenced in v1 & must be fully included again each time they're used. @Quantumplation new CIP suggests a backward compatible way to support script refs in v1⤵️

To clear things up, there are currently 19 Plutus scripts in #Cardano & 21,788 timelock scripts. Timelock scripts can check only signatures & time (max/min slots). Plutus scripts allow to use arbitrary logic. Timelock scripts were already used in Mary era to mint tokens.

From my understanding of #Cardano node code, there are 2 reasons why the chain is not fully loaded despite feeling congested: 1⃣ The #mempool is interpreted as a list & transactions are included in order until one doesn't fit. 2⃣ Transaction sizes are slightly overestimated.
