NEWS: Cardano DeFi just got the pricing layer it's been waiting for. Pyth Pro is live on @Cardano 🧵
With Emurgo and Yoroi abstaining we have reached ~61% approval for the HLabs proposal There are still a few hours left, we are looking at ~250M ADA in voting power missing It is not impossible, please if you know a DRep that is willing to change their mind tag them
Hey @Cardano! We know you have questions so join us tomorrow to discuss the Marketing Proposal for Cardano. Thursday, April 30th, 6pm CET. Link below
Big day for the IO High Assurance team. For the first time, you can automatically prove the correctness of a Cardano smart contract, from your source language down to the CEK machine, against the actual ledger rules. 🧵
Most high performance DApps needing fast finality, low fees and high throughput see Cardano's numbers and go straight to competing chains. They never get to evaluate Cardano's superior security model, formal verification, or eUTXO design. L2s fix this, and the KPI impact is direct: - TVL grows because Hydra and Midgard unlock use cases that are simply inefficient or impossible on L1 today. Global DeFi TVL opportunity is ~$100B. Cardano's ~$150M share moves if we have competitive L2 infrastructure. - Transaction volume grows because agentic economy, micropayments, many DeFi use cases, and gaming become feasible. Net Cardano ecosystem activity expands dramatically instead of flowing to other ecosystems. - Monthly active users follow finality and fees. They are the number one filter for user acquisition and retention. L2s bring Cardano to competitive parity on both. - Protocol revenue gets a structural boost. Every Midgard block published generates L1 fee revenue. Every Hydra lifecycle contributes L1 transactions. Activity that would have gone to competing ecosystems now stays in the Cardano ecosystem . L2s are crucial for driving adoption and utility on Cardano. Vote YES to the L2 Scalability proposal. momentum.cardano.iog.io/proposals/l2-s…
I am a massive fan of Cardano for a long time now. The technology and engineering pulled me in - now we are building with Masumi on Cardano for almost 1,5 years ourselves. And we constantly deliver what we promise and build AI products used by hundreds of real-world companies already. I talked over the years to many of our clients about „Why Cardano“ and explained why this blockchain is the only serious option for enterprise use-cases. When I explain Cardano in my own words, people get excited, ask good questions, see the benefits and are genuinely surprised that they either have never heard of Cardano or had a completely different and mostly false idea of it. And that needs to change. And you can change this through good communication and by breaking out of the crypto bubble on X. You need to get Cardano positioned in front of business leaders and shape a perception and narrative about Cardano which not just resonates with them, but enforces our strengths as an ecosystem. The timing is perfect for this. Never has there been more anxiety across business leaders about digital sovereignty, security, traceability of all things digital & AI. They are all ears to understand what blockchain has to offer. I would like to encourage you to read the linked PDF below: it shows you our thinking - which is btw already the result of engaging with not just all three founding entities, but also with the GMC, the community and many well known individuals from the community. I think you can tell we not just did our homework, but we have already put in an considerable upfront investment. We have skin in the game on many different levels. Not just by the pure time invested into this proposal, but even more so by being committed to build on Cardano, to recommend Cardano and bring our clients with us. We are absolute amazed by the attention this proposal has been getting over the last 24+ hours and I can tell you we read and consider every feedback and comment. So thanks for reviewing our proposal 🙏 I know it’s a lot to go through. But also absolutely worth it to take a deeper look. drive.google.com/file/d/1Mrq7FN…
