Epoch 660 set a five-day record

The 1,780,896 transactions exceeded Cardano's previous five-day record of 1,566,974 transactions. The same report said activity on October 8, 2026, reached 542,532 transactions in a single UTC calendar day, while peak throughput reached 440 transactions per second. Peak throughput describes the highest brief processing rate, not a sustained average.

Transaction fees reached 337,720 ADA during Epoch 660. The fees are payments for using Cardano block space and execution resources, according to WBOC.

CIP-113 went live on October 7, 2026

Cardano's programmable token standard CIP-113 went live on mainnet on October 7, 2026, according to SIPO. The standard lets issuers of stablecoins and other regulated assets build compliance rules directly into native Cardano tokens. Mainnet is the production blockchain used for live transactions, rather than a test environment.

A separate dated milestone is scheduled for October 27, 2026. Boerse Global reported that Cardano's Amaru beta, an alternative node-client release, was announced for that date.
