According to PANews, the Cardano community's hard fork working group has proposed naming the 2026 protocol version 11 hard fork as the 'van Rossem Hard Fork' in honor of the late governance representative Max van Rossem. Van Rossem was a member and co-leader of the Constitutional Committee Election Working Group, contributing significantly to the drafting of Cardano's first constitution and playing a pivotal role in the inclusion of Article 8. He also founded the AdaMoments project, aimed at preserving users' personal histories, and was active in community building in the Netherlands. The community will vote on the naming proposal from January 13 to February 14, 2026. The protocol version 11 upgrade is expected to enhance node security, ledger consistency, and Plutus performance.
