Cardano needs to pick a niche and specialise in that niche! Cardano needs to be the goto chain for something in particular. Yes we can all say it’s secure and decentralised but it’s got no volume or liquidity. We need a reason that people come to Cardano. RWA is a great option right now. Make Cardano the known secure chain for buying, selling, trading, owning real world assets. Then Cardano should lean more into DeFi. Cardano responds too slowly and has far too much copy pasta of dapps you can get on other chains. Cardano needs to highlight to non technical people why those people should use Cardano over Eth, Solana, or even Tron! Cardano needs to specialise in something non technical people want.

The fact that Cardano is now top 11 and projects like Tron and Doge are still in the top 10 really says a lot about the average crypto holder. Soon people will realize that decentralization and security is more important than faster transactions and memecoins.

Cardano is solid secure and strong, but it’s too slow to respond in an exponentially fast ecosystem. Instead, it should focus on a niche and become the benchmark for that niche. In my opinion, the obvious route right now would be real world assets. Cardano can easily be known as the secure real world asset Blockchain. The goto chain for secure RWA trading, ownership & usage. Start there and see how we can progress, but we still need to get some volume and liquidity and improve Stablecoin access and liquidity!

@WhatCryptoDude @DiscoverCardano Well said, what would you pick as top focus/priority for the next 6-12 months?

Things Cardano needs to succeed: 1. Killer apps and experiences 2. Marketing (of apps and experiences) 3. Investment rails to help scale and market apps and experiences 4. Large scale (real) enterprise partnerships and integrations 5. Presence, ubiquity, real connection 6. Infrastructure to support all of the above 7. A community that builds each other up You don't drive to the next town over to go shopping for the same goods and services you can get locally unless the product is: something you can't get locally, cheaper or better quality enough to justify the cost (time+fuel) of acquisition. But you definitely don't drive to the other town and hope to find what you're looking for, the stores need to let you know they exist. The store can't market and advertise it it's barely scraping by, so it needs to have access to capital to scale and attract new shoppers. If the store carries major, well-known brands it builds trust in the quality of their products or services. When you get to the store, if you don't know where you're going, the difference between a good experience and a bad one is a friendly and helpful staff person to show you where to go and help you find the right product. If there are no roads, cars/trains, gas stations, power, water, etc then the trip itself may be impossible. Finally, if you've received a warm referral from a friend who told you to shop there, it's practically a done deal. We need all of these things, the question is how much should be allocated in total and to each category or facet to drive success. Fortunately (or maybe not) we're all the "CEO of Cardano" and get to make these decisions collectively. Everyone's answers will likely be slightly different, that's okay, as long as we can have constructive conversations and work to find the middle ground.

@MeteraProtocol $WMTX $IAG $NIGHT Possibly $MIN 👀

If you had $100,000 available right now where would you put it? 1. $ADA 2. $NIGHT 3. Other CNTs 4. USDCx 5. Hold an MTK

USDCx is now live on SundaeSwap. 👀 USDCx on Cardano is a stablecoin backed 1:1 by @USDC held in @Circle’s xReserve smart contract. Swap it, provide liquidity, and earn fees while powering DeFi. Check out supported pairs → app.sundae.fi Bridge USDC → USDCx with $0 fees until June → usdcx.iog.io/bridge

@TapTools done

I will delete this tweet in 24 hours. Interact with it while you can because once it's gone you'll regret not doing it. If you’re not following me you will be disqualified. Comment "done" when done.

How are people like this getting votes for positions of power 🤦🏼‍♂️ The ignorance is staggering It genuinely worries me that rhetoric built mostly on emotion is gaining so much traction in positions of power. Empathy matters, but policy has to be grounded in evidence, trade offs, and economic reality. Good intentions alone don’t make good governance.

In the wake of breaking news that Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has been killed in Israeli-US strikes, newly elected Green Party MP Hannah Spencer joined locals in Gorton & Denton for a minute's silence honouring the fallen Ayatollah. A striking show of solidarity from Manchester's newest MP. 🇮🇷🕊️

🤦🏼‍♂️If governments could just create money with no downside, every country would do it aggressively. Yes, the UK issues its own currency, but that doesn’t mean spending is “self-financing” in any practical sense. Government still has a budget constraint. If spending persistently exceeds the economy’s productive capacity, you get inflation, higher borrowing costs, currency pressure, or all three. We’ve literally seen this play out in recent years. Taxes and bonds aren’t irrelevant either. Taxes create demand for the currency and help manage inflation, while gilt markets absolutely matter for credibility and financing conditions. If investors lose confidence, the cost of funding rises quickly, which feeds back into the real economy. So the real question isn’t whether a sovereign issuer can create money (it obviously can) it’s how you do so without eroding purchasing power or destabilising the economy. That’s the trade off any serious fiscal plan has to answer. Zack nor his party can answer that question

@WhatCryptoDude @ZackPolanski The UK government issues a fiat currency. It is self financing. Neither tax nor bonds fund spending. The only constraints are real resources and inflation. That’s how it works not the monetarist and neo-liberal delusion

Let's get menancing. (Lowering bills, protecting NHS, funding public services....) Join.greenparty.org.uk

@MetamateDaz Take a business economics class and then listen to the Green Party 💀 They are running a campaign based on people’s feelings and what sounds nice for the people to hear. They are not economically competent. The UK will fall into economic decline under greens.

this might sound dramatic but Greens winning the next general election is the ONLY way to tun The UK around, and it’s nothing to do with left/right or their policies. Every single other major party is owned by foreign agents either through blackmail or bribery and it is doing far more damage to the country than anything else & just as they ran Corbyn’s name through the mud they will do the same with the Greens because when you do not take the bribes, they get the media to tarnish your name because most people are idiots that believe whatever The Sun tells them to

Cardano doesn’t need more hype right now. It needs usage! If you’re part of this ecosystem, the biggest thing you can do is actually use it. Let’s get NFTs moving again. Let’s all get trading again with excitement and enthusiasm around CNFTs. Use Platforms like JPG Store and I want to see more projects trading. We need active communities not ghost towns and dead discords. If you’re building, ship. Equine let’s get those horses racing & trading! Let’s make cnfts cool again. DeFi needs the same energy. Borrow, lend, provide liquidity, trade. Real activity creates real markets, and real markets attract real capital. Trade, TVL and liquidity volume matters because it’s what gives the ecosystem depth and resilience. If you’re running a Cardano project, look inward first. Use Cardano infrastructure for your own stack. Storage, compute, data, identity. Projects like Iagon exist so the ecosystem can be self-reinforcing rather than dependent on external rails. With USDC on the horizon, we’re about to remove one of the biggest friction points. But stablecoins only matter if people actually transact with them. Payments, subscriptions, treasury management. The tools are arriving, now behaviour needs to follow. Because here’s the uncomfortable truth: if a chain isn’t used, markets will treat it like it has no future. Liquidity dries up, narratives turn negative, and traders step in to short momentum. Usage is the defence. Build on it. Trade on it. Transact on it. Support the teams actually shipping. Cardano’s success won’t come from waiting. It’ll come from participation.

@jayedii @MinswapIntern Min needs more use cases Like most DEX tokens, what’s the reason to hold the token? Just governance ?

I think @MinswapIntern is the last person to be advising anyone in Cardano about token price.

It feels like we need a bit more context on the actual conversation before we can land on a verdict here. How and why were patents being compared to cocaine in the first place? That’s a pretty specific analogy and it matters what point was being made. I’m also guessing he wasn’t calling all builders evil, so what was the situation where you, as a builder, were singled out? Was it tied to funding, incentives, or a specific decision? Calling someone a goblin is obviously petty and childish, no argument there, but again the question is why the discussion got to that point. Without the full context it’s hard to judge fairly, and it risks coming across less like raising a governance concern and more like dobbing someone in to the school teacher. Transparency goes a long way in this space, especially when it concerns funding for start ups.

A Cardano CC member with 80+ million ADA delegated has compared patents to selling cocaine, called us "evil", accused us of "rinsing retail" and called me a "little goblin," in a recorded space. Is this the standard of professionalism we accept from governance? How do we expect serious companies, regulators and institutions to take our industry seriously?

Crypto market is down, the hype has been and gone, everyone is waiting for the new bull cycle but ignores the fact that you need to be using crypto to keep the crypto market alive. Cardano DeFi should be popular soon. Especially now USDC is coming. I don’t get why more people aren’t using Cardano. It’s easy and far safer than many other options out there.

Cardano has been one of the WORST investments that i've made since I started investing in crypto Such a strong community & so much potential Very sad to see the team waste such a great opportunity Is anyone here still holding $ADA?!

@TheGreenParty This is the dumbest take. 🙈 If these idiots actually got into power, the UK is screwed 🤦🏼‍♂️

Reform want ICE-style deportations in the UK — the kind that have wreaked havoc in the US. Instead of standing up to this Trump tribute act, Labour is echoing it. Raids and scapegoats won’t fix what’s broken. Inequality is the problem — and only the Greens have a plan to confront it. #HopeNotHate | @Carla_Denyer

Who owns some of these 👀 Who remembers?

@TheGreenParty Lead by having practical and realistic outputs, not just “I hope everyone feels okay” You can’t lead a country based on people’s feelings.
