💥BREAKING: Kevin O’Leary says Bitcoin and Ethereum capture 98% of crypto. Calls the rest of crypto “poo poo.”

🔖 NEW ARTICLE The walls between Cardano and Bitcoin are slowly coming down. This month two teams shared meaningful updates on connecting the blockchains together. Read about the Progress on Cardano-Bitcoin Interoperability in this article 👇 cexplorer.io/article/progre…

I disagree. It’s clear we have insufficient controls and are exposed to unnecessary risk. Taking a position of voting everything down if the submission is substandard will put more pressure on those seeking funds for clarity and creates a high standard with more transparency. If #Cardano is to improve in its development quicker, it needs to update its internal controls. Do it once, do it right.

@WylanCoffman Mastery of governance is the ability to distinguish between the necessary and the unnecessary. Voting NO to everything is an oversimplification that can only bring about the collapse of the ecosystem.

If you are a Cardano DRep, I highly suggest we take a break from funding BULLSHIT!

We are actively working on integrating Cardano into Fireblocks. The integration has been ready & publicly accessible since 3 weeks ago. It is open source. We are further optimizing the integration and looking forward to showcasing a demo video for you. You can check the link below: github.com/fireblocks/car…

Gosh, so much negativity in the Cardano timeline. Let’s clear the air here: Coinmarket rankings don’t matter. Not anymore. This is due to: 1. If you look at the top whatever, 2 of them are stables, and 4 are fake, centralized chains where the numbers are manipulated. Remove these and $ADA ‘s pretty much in the top 10. 2. If you’re worried retail won’t see Cardano because it’s not top 10, take note: retail is no longer relevant. Mcaps are too high for retail to ever leave a mark. 3. Institutions are now the name of the game. The ones with approriate capital do not look at rankings to decide. They’re not idiots. Instead, the metrics that matter are: 1. Look at the tech and its development. Cardano’s still undergoing scaling? Good. Governance, while annoying, is still pretty much working? We’re on the right track. 2. Government legislation is still underway to give clarity to all this. Soon you’ll find there will be 2 lists in coinmarketcap, one for securities and one for proper decentralized commodities. 3. Cardano still attracting devs and institutions? This one honestly is a bit weak at the moment. Thankfully, Midnight’s attracting the right attention, which has a halo effect to Cardano given it’s a CNT. 4. Are the Cardano ecosystem projects still going? Yup, at least the top ones are still humming alongz $SNEK $IAG $FLUID $SURF $STRIKE and many more are still building. Don’t bother with the rankings, they don’t matter anymore.

Change your mindset to better understand what you see. The tech is undervalued and it’s not priced in. Once other L2s like Midnight build on it… People need to be patient and play the long game with #Cardano Its still in its infancy, but the technical foundation as it is today is solid; it will naturally evolve over many years.

I was here the first time Cardano fell below the Top 10. It came back roaring. Before it dropped below again. The good thing is that crypto is very forgiving. The bad thing is that time is running out.

Thanks for using my image and analysis. Did BTC die when it was floating between $1-5? #Cardano technology will stand the test of time, and those who doubt it will regret, like not buying BTC around 2009-14. The greatest gift is when the tech is undervalued and nothing is priced in 🧠

Cardano doesn’t focus on what actually matters for adoption. Tech is great, but price matters above all else for bringing in new users and new capital. Price go up, or ADA is dead. Better start understanding this now before it’s too late.

Something you see a lot in this industry is foundations handling everything from protocol development all the way to building end-user products and marketing them. This is especially common with Cosmos SDK-based chains and general-purpose L2s. The most ideal structure in this market is one where the foundation focuses solely on the protocol, and builders focus on products built on top of it. But achieving this kind of ecosystem is extremely difficult. It's really hard to attract builders who voluntarily build products and participate, and it's even harder to create a market where those builder-made products can actually survive and thrive. So when a foundation is doing everything from protocol development to shipping end-user products, that's not something to brag about. It means they're in a difficult position where they have no other choice. And the moment the foundation stops, the ecosystem collapses. Personally, I think that's less of a blockchain network and more of a single solution built entirely by the foundation from start to finish. L1s with this kind of structure aren't sustainable. And that's exactly why growing an ecosystem where many builders emerge and diverse dApps are born is such an incredibly difficult thing to pull off.

@dori_coin We’re currently experiencing some challenging times and some people dislike uncertainty during bear markets. We have exceptional technology and just need to adopt a long-term strategy similar to Bitcoin. I have total faith in #Cardano and its future.

@CardanoTruth yeah, spot on. I think cardano has the kind of L1 ecosystm I see as ideal.

On Vitalik: He didn't abandon the L2 concept. He said generic copy-paste scaling chains are becoming irrelevant because Ethereum L1 is now scaling itself. He explicitly said L2s offering privacy, specialized VMs, and non-financial use cases are exactly what's needed going forward. That describes Midnight almost perfectly. Citing Vitalik as a critique of Midnight is actually the opposite of what he argued. On "building behind the community's back": Midnight was publicly announced at Consensus 2022. It's been discussed openly for years. You can disagree with the direction, but the secrecy narrative doesn't hold up. On liquidity: Yes, new tokens create temporary rotation. That's true of every new asset launch in crypto history. The question is whether the underlying value creation justifies it long term. If Midnight attracts enterprise and privacy use cases that couldn't exist on Cardano L1, that's net new demand, not just reshuffling the same pool. On timing: Fair criticism honestly. Launching a new token in a bear market is rough optics and rough for price action. On "the charts don't lie" cuts both ways. Correlation isn't causation. ADA underperformed well before NIGHT existed.

More tokens spread across the same community and users without attracting anyone new impacts ADA price bc this holders are selling ADA to buy NIGHT. I believe Vitalik is abandoning the L2 concept per the below. Charles was likely planning/building Midnight behind community’s back using resources funded by ADA while launching NIGHT token very quickly in the worst bear market in crypto history and delivering slow on the Cardano side. 😂. Ofc people are not going to be happy Night token was launched at the worst possible time sucking liquidity from ADA and the rest of the ecosystem bc holders are selling other CNTs and ADA for the new shiny NIGHT. Charles tries to deny this, but the charts don’t lie.

Mostly bc Charles Hoskinson @IOHK_Charles launched his new blockchain by pandering to existing ADA holders and diluting their liquidity and discretionary income between NIGHT and ADA. He attempted to pull in new people to NIGHT by air dropping and marketing to other chains, but it failed miserably and now his only hope for NIGHT price appreciation comes at the expense of ADA price as he continues to poach holders, influencers, devs, etc from Cardano and not from any other community bc they are not interested as they have seen many holders lives financially ruined by Cardano while the devs have thrived.

The relevance of Cardano can be ensured by spending Treasury ADA. Nobody cares about the "moneyness" of coins. Only utility ensures relevance. We must think about each ADA and choose the best projects. We must not be afraid to vote NO and insist on improving proposals.

@davidtwltr That’s crazy. Nothing should be funded unless it’s a loan or it will generate return and benefit the holders.

As Cardano drops further down the cmc list, with tokens that are unheard of such as LEO overtaking it, and Tron now ~4x our marketcap. Lets point our attention again to the crazy spending from Catalyst and the treasury spearheaded and encouraged by Mr. Hoskinson. NCL 350M $ADA this, Intersect committee that, Catalyst round 15 this, Cardano calender and CF events that. Whale you are stupid this, OTC trades absorb all the selling that. Dingo node this, Amaru node that. Devs on the payroll this, we got to retain our quality engineers that. At the end of the day, we are dropping further down the drain, people are losing their lifesavings, holders losing faith, more pools retiring. Yet you want to keep funding IOG and infrastructure and paying for shit nobody asked for while they sell the ada they receive and have no skin in the game, while holders for 7-9 years have seen their investment stale, while other tokens outperformed ada by miles. Wake up you ignorant fools! Drep clowns can't see whats right infront of their eyes. Blinded by the lies and promises of green pastures. We are 2026 already and still below the marketcap of 2018. Stop funding this madness.

@bobcorn_ada @davidtwltr 🎯

Two genuinely important infrastructure pieces: 🪨 Pebble — a Cardano smart contract language designed for JS/TS/Rust devs. Lowers the barrier meaningfully. ⚙️ Gerolamo — a TypeScript node implementation. Client diversity is a real resilience issue and this addresses it. This is the kind of unglamorous, foundational work that actually moves the needle for @Cardano long-term.

A new Treasury Withdrawal has been submitted for the Pebble and Gerolamo node.
