Update from Emurgo on Goguen in this Blog post which looks into how this phase will bring Cardano close to completion:
Goguen could be the most important release for the Cardano blockchain network. This phase will introduce many new and exciting features – most notably smart contracts, which will open up a lot more tangible opportunities of development for both developers and enterprises wanting to leverage Cardano’s blockchain network. This will also enable the Cardano community as well as businesses to use their creativity to develop valued services and solutions. As we approach the release of Goguen, there are a ton of great updates and facets to unpack.
Good to see a shift to greater comms and marketing as the project moves towards the final phases. Check it out here:
