Cardano’s Web3 wallet Lace has received fresh updates as the network prepares for the Van Rossem hard fork.
Summary
- Lace 2.0.3 fixed migration, DApp connection, loading, and legacy wallet issues.
- Lace 2.0.4 added view mode options, auto-lock settings, and language fixes.
- Cardano’s Van Rossem hard fork targets Protocol Version 11 in late June.
The wallet’s recent 2.0 releases focus on smoother migration, better DApp access, and easier wallet use.
Lace 2.0 brings Cardano, Midnight, and Bitcoin into one wallet interface. The update aims to reduce the need for users to move between separate wallets when managing assets across ecosystems.
Lace 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 improve user access
Lace 2.0.3 fixed a white screen issue that stopped some users from completing migration or connecting to DApps. It also fixed a problem affecting some older wallets imported from Nami.
Lace 2.0.4 added a default view mode, letting users switch between Side Panel and Tab. It also introduced an auto-lock timer and fixed missing Spanish and Japanese translations.
Moreover, Cardano is preparing the Van Rossem hard fork, an intra-era upgrade to Protocol Version 11. The upgrade is expected to improve Plutus performance, ledger consistency, and node-level security.
Cardano Node 11.0.1 Pre-Release is required to safely cross the hard fork. Stake pool operators and developers on preview have been asked to upgrade before the mainnet step.
Network upgrade avoids major disruption
The Van Rossem upgrade does not move Cardano into a new era. That matters because transaction formats remain unchanged, reducing work for wallets, DApps, and exchanges.
“Late June 2026” remains the date to watch, but the rollout still depends on readiness and governance steps.
