After reflecting deeply on this governance process, a few things are clearer to me than ever.
Cardano is alive. The community is engaged. And that matters more than any single vote.
But this process has shown me something important: Cardano's governance is real. You are not passive holders. You are owners. That is exactly what we built this for.
It has also reminded me that when Cardano has needed it most, the Pentad delivered. IOG, EMURGO, the Cardano Foundation, Midnight Foundation, and Intersect have proven they can coordinate and bring critical integrations to life when the ecosystem needed it. That coordination layer matters now more than ever.
So let me show up the way I should.
I will be in Singapore for the Cardano Summit and I will be on stage. I am also personally committing to partially top up our Token2049 sponsorship to Title level. Being on that main stage is where Cardano and Midnight need to be heard.
To the Pentad, I am inviting all of you to sit down and have a real conversation about the future of governance and how we formalise this coordination going forward.
I am 100% focused on Cardano and Midnight. Always have been. Let me prove it. #strongertogether

If you're a Cardano holder, please repost this immediately.
We've come to an absolute defining moment for ADA.
In the next 48 hours, the proposals that fund Cardano development are being decided.
While the #2 chain in crypto loses their builders or researchers, Cardano can keep theirs, at one of the most critical times of the altcoin cycle.
Cardano has come this far. It can not stop here.
DReps, think about the impact here.
Holders, make your voice heard.

The new $USDCx stablecoin will unlock something Cardano has been missing and it’s hugely valuable for the ecosystem’s economy.
If you want to generate yield right now on existing Cardano stablecoins (USDA, USDM, or DJED), you need to account for the elephant in the room: the cost of getting in and out of stablecoins.
For 99% of users, getting a stablecoin starts with swapping from ADA. Between DEX fees, potential depegs, and low-liquidity pools, acquiring a large amount can cost real time (DCA) and real money. For example, on DexHunter, swapping $100k into USDM can cost ~5% in slippage/fees. The larger the amount, the worse it gets. Round trip (in and out), you’re talking 10%+ in losses on a $100k “stablecoin investment” before you’ve even earned $1 of yield.
If you’re down 10% on entry/exit, it doesn’t matter if you can earn 7% on lending in a year. This makes it financially unattractive for most users and keeps Cardano stablecoin liquidity extremely low, because people can’t acquire stablecoins at a competitive price (e.g., <0.1% effective swap cost).
With a native bridge that lets you swap 1 $USDC for 1 $USDCx, everything changes. You don’t need deep Cardano DEX liquidity just to start earning yield on Cardano DeFi. You can buy $USDC on a top CEX at the most competitive price, bridge it 1:1 to Cardano as $USDCx, and deploy it immediately.
That unlocks access to stablecoin strategies that can generate 5–10% APY on Cardano DeFi protocols like lending, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see 12–20% if demand is strong. If people are willing to pay 5–10% APY on ADA loans, they’ll likely pay a large premium for USD loans.
I can’t wait to see the ecosystem expand with this new offering, and I definitely can’t wait to borrow $USDCx using my $SNEK as collateral.

@MithaIntel @BRICSinfo It’s Chinese new year. It’s always been for thousands of years. These countries culture were influenced by the Chinese culture that’s why they celebrated the Chinese new year. If they don’t want to they can simply stop celebrating it.

Charles Hoskinson is leaving X. This is positive news for Cardano.
With over 1M followers, Charles' account was the largest related to Cardano. The Cardano Foundation assumes this role with over ~840K followers.
I dare say that many OGs became Cardano supporters thanks to Charles and his legendary whiteboard video, which has over 1.9M views.
Would you believe that this video is already 8 years old?
Charles gave Cardano a vision and defined its technological and ideological foundations. This will never be forgotten, just as Bitcoin is forever linked to Satoshi Nakamoto.
When Satoshi left Bitcoin in 2010, he handed over its maintenance to Gavin Andresen.
Cardano has been in the hands of DReps for over a year.
DReps currently vote on Cardano's vision for 2030, approve the budget for the IOG, can change the Constitution, etc.
This is a significant step forward for the crypto industry. Instead of an individual, the project was truly handed over to the community.
Charles is leaving X because he believes the platform rewards outrage.
The past year has been marked by arguments between Charles and the Cardano Foundation. This could have damaged the project’s reputation. Let’s recall that Cardano Whale left X after disagreements with Charles.
Some community members are happy that Charles is leaving the media scene. I understand them.
I am grateful that the founding entities resolved their disputes behind closed doors, formed Pentad, and together want to build critical infrastructure with the support of DReps.
Charles is leaving X at the right time.
Most people will continue to see him as a visionary, not someone who burned out on X.
Unfortunately, some Bitcoin OGs ended up like this. For example, Adam Back. He became a toxic maximalist who divided the community.
The important thing is that Charles is not leaving Cardano, but only X. He will continue to do AMAs and be available on Discord. He wants to focus on quality instead of quantity. This is good for the entire crypto industry.
Top projects have their representatives on X. Ethereum has Vitalik Buterin, Solana has Anatoly Yakovenko, Tron has Justin Sun, and the list goes on and on.
Cardano will not have a strong representative on X, just an army of smaller accounts. Maybe it’s time to think about how to support content creators. We’ll see if we can onboard new Cardano fans without Charles.
Anyway, no blockchain should have any formal leader. Cardano is becoming a mature project that honors the principles of decentralization.
To be clear, Cardano will not be more decentralized after Charles leaves. Everything will remain as it is. Blockchain leaders usually don’t have a STOP button on their computers.
Charles remains the CEO of IOG. What changes is only the media image, which may be better without Charles.
Thank you, Charles Hoskinson, for everything you have done for Cardano and for dedicating a significant part of your productive life to this project.
We are here to continue the project's mission.
