1/ Midnight had a big presence at @consensus2026, demonstrating the capabilities of the world’s first fourth-gen blockchain. Teams, partners, & ambassadors gathered in real time to demonstrate the future of programmable privacy. Check the highlights: midnight.network/blog/midnight-…

Working with conviction and determination. 🪏 There is nothing more meaningful than purpose-driven work. In this case, carrying forward the mission and vision of @Cardano and @MidnightNtwrk to as many people as possible in their native language, with the technical knowledge required to speak with precision, confidence, and clarity. Two resilient and effective technologies. One, a pioneer in decentralized governance built on a Proof of Stake system. The other, a zero-knowledge blockchain focused on selective disclosure, privacy-enhancing technology, and rational privacy. Each with unique use cases, adaptability, and enormous potential waiting to be discovered.

Cardano DeFi is moving into a new phase. It’s not just swaps, staking and lending anymore. Perpetuals, leveraged trading, vaults, event markets and short-window prediction markets are starting to appear across Cardano and Midnight. @strikeperps is live. @AscendPerps is heading to testnet. @ATLAS_DEFI_ is building on Midnight. @minute_markets is exploring fast 5-10 min markets. The opportunity is huge. But leverage is not adoption by itself. Risk, liquidity, education and real users still matter. *Not a paid promotion

The Cardano Critical Integrations (CCI V1) closure report is now live. intersectmbo.org/news/cardano-c… Delivered collaboratively by members of the "Pentad" including @Cardano_CF, @emurgo_io, @IOGroup, @midnightfdn, and Intersect, CCI V1 brought four major integrations live or into final implementation: • USDCx by Circle • LayerZero • Pyth Network • Dune Analytics The report provides a shared account of what ₳70M in community approved funding delivered, how funds were administered, lessons learned, and the path toward CCI V2. A major milestone for Cardano's infrastructure and institutional readiness.

Midnight: selective disclosure, smart compliance, and rational privacy. 🕛⚫️ Today I return home, to my university and the place where I studied. Invited by our partners at Binance Argentina (@BinanceArg), I will be speaking with young students about Midnight (@MidnightNtwrk) and exploring some of the most fascinating concepts emerging in the blockchain industry. Inspired by the speeches of Charles (@IOHK_Charles), “the triangle man,” I will be participating in a panel discussion about privacy enhancing technologies and this new concept of smart compliance. See you today at the National University of La Plata.

Argentine and Brazilian fintechs: a joint mission with the Embassy of Brazil 🇧🇷🇦🇷 Special thanks to the Embassy of Brazil in Argentina, the BRETA team, and all the teams that participated. Through a joint effort, we invited retail and fintech startups that are already generating revenue to present at the Input Output offices (@IOGroup) The Embassy of Brazil and the BRETA team invited a wide range of Brazilian fintechs, retail companies, and businesses with the mission of finding strategic partners and discovering new tools to expand their operations beyond borders. From Input Output Buenos Aires, together with our partner, the Argentine Fintech Chamber, we invited startups, software factories, and UX/UI designers, and shared how they can scale their products across borders through blockchain technology, especially through the @Cardano and @MidnightNtwrk blockchains. A special thank you to Ernesto Mané, First Secretary of the Embassy of Brazil in Argentina, for supporting the event, and to the BRETA team for their coordination and efforts on their side.

We just completed our first project funded by @midnightfdn: DID:MIDNIGHT 🕛 has been build by @DennisMittmann and team. And honestly, we are impressed. The Midnight Foundation has shown what professional ecosystem support can look like. Even when our contact person changed, the process stayed smooth, reliable and respectful, from presentations, to amendments, to clear communication, to payments arriving exactly as expected. This is how you help builders turn ideas into real products: Fast. Professional. Reliable. Builder-focused. Most importantly, we felt treated like a serious team contributing value to the ecosystem, not like applicants who constantly need to justify that they are not “greedy grifters trying to drain a treasury.” That difference matters. It is refreshing to work with people who understand that homegrown projects need trust, speed and support to create real impact. Big thanks to the Midnight Foundation team around @rongurlavi! 🕛🚀

Pay with Begin at 137 SPAR stores around Switzerland. We partner with @DFX_swiss and @OpenCryptoPay to make it a reality. Cardano Community and @Cardano_CF.

I've put together a @midgardprotocol tracker. It shows git commit progress against milestones based on their original proposal. It's mostly automated, pulling data in via GitHub. Let me know if I got anything wrong.

A few weeks ago Google released the DESIGN.md standard -> an easy standard that gives agents access to your brand guidelines. But it was still a hassle to actually write a DESIGN.md file. So I built a simple easy & free tool that does it for you -> DESIGN.md generator ✨

@juanlazarte06 @KeydNetwork @MidnightNtwrk @IOHK_Charles Felicidades! 👏

Making things happen. Today officially closes an incredible chapter: at @KeydNetwork we have successfully completed the Build Club Cohort 0, the first-ever @MidnightNtwrk accelerator. It was months of total immersion. We went through intensive modules on Zero-Knowledge (ZK) infrastructure, privacy-first product design, and go-to-market strategy to ensure our digital identity solution scales and meets the regulatory standards the industry demands. Looking back, from that first hackathon we won, to the Demo Day where we had the opportunity to pitch our vision, the journey has been spectacular. Validating this effort with the backing of the Midnight Foundation confirms we are heading in the right direction. But the acceleration phase is just the beginning. The real work of building the trust layer and sovereign privacy for the digital economy continues every single day. Thank you to the entire @midnightfdn team for the support. Time to keep executing. 🕛

Privacy is moving from concept to product! 🚀 Build Club Cohort 0 just wrapped with 10 international teams building across digital ID, RWAs, private storage, credentials and blind auctions. Great to see @MidnightNtwrk helping privacy-first startups move closer to investment readiness 🔐 Interested to join the next cohort? Apply here 👉 midnight.network/build-club

Buenos Aires, we’re back. And once again, a full house. 🔴🏆 Welcome to Product Day. This is an open stage for builders across every industry. Real economy, retail, fintech, SaaS, AI, logistics, gaming, healthcare, education, infrastructure, and beyond. If you’re building a product, this event is for you. Selected products will pitch before a jury and compete for major prizes. But beyond the competition, founders and product teams from all sectors will discover how cutting-edge ecosystems like @Cardano and @MidnightNtwrk can integrate directly into their existing products, adding security, transparency, programmability, privacy, and decentralized infrastructure to whatever you’re already building. You don’t need to be a blockchain company to be here. You just need to be building something worth scaling. Keep onboarding. Keep building. Keep working. Always warm, always welcoming. Sometimes Buenos Aires. This is the Input Output Office in Buenos Aires (@IOGroup)
