The Midnight Tokenomics. #Cardano

Ready for bullrun? Try one of those 🔥

Institutions entering crypto want fast, scalable chains with the ability to freeze accounts and block transactions. They'll build their own chains. Cardano stands for decentralization, something they can't offer. If you understand Cardano’s mission, the future looks bright.

I highly recommend anyone in the Cardano community who cares about how treasury funds are spent to bookmark the following page. cardanotreasury.fi/ This is the dashboard that tracks the smart contracts used for managing the Budget administered by Intersect. The 168.4M ada that are available are from the following TWs: IOE -> 96.82M ada Catalyst -> 69.46M ada Midgard -> 2.16 M ada

Cardano Whale was a true legend in the community—most of you probably followed him on X. He stood firmly for decentralization and was a strong advocate of on-chain governance. His deep knowledge of Cardano DeFi wasn’t just theoretical; he used the tools himself and shared insights that helped others understand and engage. As one of the more influential DReps, he deliberately kept his DRep ID private to avoid accumulating too much power. He championed budgetary discipline and pushed for a low Net Change Limit to protect the Treasury. Now, we’ve lost that voice. The reasons behind his departure aren’t the point—he made a personal decision to step away, and that deserves respect. It surely wasn’t easy. I stepped away from the Bitcoin community in much the same way years ago, so I understand how difficult that decision can be. It’s never easy to walk away from something you’ve invested in deeply. It’s disappointing to see some dismiss his contributions or label his exit as amateurish. I believe he should have stayed—his presence on X and in governance would have continued to benefit the ecosystem. Luckily, in a decentralized system, no single voice defines the future. One legend leaves, and others will rise. That’s the strength of Cardano’s governance model. Still, we owe it to each other to foster a culture where people like Cardano Whale feel supported—not pushed out. Let’s make sure our ecosystem remains a place where critical voices are valued, not silenced. Cardano Whale inspired me personally. I’m grateful for everything he contributed to Cardano—and I wish him the very best moving forward.

And one of my personal favorites - What to do with the so-called sticky stake? Should the delegation expire after some time? We will present a plan to the TSC and to the community when we conclude the research in the next few months. cc @timbharrison @benohanlon @IOHKMedia

Cardano bridge in 2025? Yeah, @skyline_bridge actually pulled it off. ⚡ You can now bridge assets between @Cardano and @ApexFusion, two fundamentally different chain architectures using a trust-minimized and fully sovereign system that's setting a new standard for what secure, UTXO bridging should look like. This marks a massive step in Apex Fusion's broader push to enable its highly modular infrastructure. The bridge currently supports Cardano and AP3X, with the architecture already built to expand into more chains, which includes EVM and even SVM. Cardano has long needed a secure, seamless way to interoperate. At the same time, AP3X needed a native path to onboard real-world assets and builders from the Cardano ecosystem Skyline makes both possible. Huge props to the @ethernal_tech team and Apex engineers who made this happen. The amount of architectural precision packed into this thing is remarkable. Ready to bridge? 🔗 skylinebridge.tech
