Dropping by to let everyone know that I spoke with @phillip_pon and we are working out a plan to create a discord for a great migration of the Cardano community from X. We can have happy, positive, well-moderated channels and leave behind the drama, lies, endless rage, and embittered people for a place where real conversations and real progress can be made. I will continue broadcasting live streams to X as I have a million followers here, but will only take AMA questions from the new Cardano and current Midnight discords. I've seen some commentary that broadcasting means I'm back on X. For those people, I can't solve stupid. Enjoy your scandals of the week and FUD. Real work is done elsewhere. Looking forward to Cardano ascending to better days, governance, and culture.

Join us now LIVE with the Pentad as we examine the Cardano Critical Integrations V2 proposal. x.com/i/broadcasts/1dGYllVYP… - @phillip_pon CEO of @emurgo_io, - @F_Gregaard CEO of @Cardano_CF, - @F_ZK_Now President of @sonsonzinho, - @giozzi Chief Technology Officer @Cardano_CF

Why Cardano is the only Ecosystem that can run the world x.com/i/broadcasts/1YxNrrBdD…

One thought this video reinforced for me: Cardano has spent years solving for decentralization. The next challenge is solving for coordination. We've proven that governance can distribute power, to some degree anyway. What remains unanswered is how distributed power produces coherent outcomes, clear priorities, accountable execution, and strategic alignment across the ecosystem. I increasingly believe the future lies somewhere between traditional centralized foundations and fully fragmented governance models, a structure that preserves community oversight while empowering professional execution. Not a center of control, but a center of efficient and responsive coordination.

For those wondering how @midgardprotocol is progressing, I decided to try it myself. Specifically, I tried from this commit, which @phil_uplc let me know was a decently stable snapshot, if you want to try it yourself. github.com/Anastasia-Labs/mi… I was able to succesfully deploy some SundaeSwap contracts, make a deposit, create a constant product pool between two dummy tokens (VALHANILLA / BIFROSTING, for a bit of thematic punnery), and execute a swap of 31,415 VALHANILLA for 30,369 BIFROSTING. The TxHash of the execution of that first swap is 68ae28279b0881ffd742b2208df6b2bf308101025a7a9eac45769442b34aec9d. @phil_uplc confirmed that I'm the first person to run a smart contract more complicated than "always fails" or "always succeeds", meaning I can now claim the title of first to run meaningful contracts on Hydra, Leios, and Midgard. My trophy belt is getting quite full! :) My honest assessment: progress is impressive, but developer experience right now is rough; there were quite a few things I had to hack through to get it working. The protocol is fiendishly complex, and so its success will entirely depend on how well the team can iterate and, as we say, "finish the second 80%" for a production grade protocol.

REPOST but to Cardano: Dear @Cardano, we have been in deep discussion with @IOHK_Charles and how recent price declines will impact their budgeting needs / ability to deliver on IO proposals. Combine that with my sincere belief that we do require more structured leadership (in conjunction with constructive community involvement); @emurgo_io will shift to a "Yes" vote for IOR. We are at an existential moment for @Cardano where actions we take now will reverberate through our ecosystem. Also make no mistake, that every chain, is facing the same decision. EMURGO believes the following: 1. Leadership: At this time, I believe need an executive function that is led by Charles @IOHK_Charles, Fred @F_Gregaard and myself @phillip_pon alongside Jack @JBriggsLondon at Intersect. The community will and must be involved. 2. Infrastructure: We need to fund infrastructure and @IOGroup and some specific protocols / projects remain best positioned to ensure core needs are met. @Cardano_CF also does work on these matters, alongside @IntersectMBO. @emurgo_io maintains libraries that are used by nearly all Cardano projects. 3. Commercial: Investments must also be prioritised but we must also accept that most will fail. It is the nature of early stage investment but we must try to create a thriving ecosystem that embraces a multi-chain future. Strike offers other chains too. @LayerZero_Core is essential to this strategy as are @circle, @PythNetwork , @DuneAnaIytics and @FireblocksHQ. 4. Marketing & Branding: Web3 is fighting for attention in the age of AI. @Cardano has a unique opportunity to rise above the fray alongside @MidnightNtwrk @F_ZK_Now. Having said that, I am not a proponent of parties, happy hours, or 'free drinks'. Marketing & Branding are serious efforts that need to be led by serious people. I was recently at a dinner with a VC, Regulator, Market Maker, and prominent project where more was done to advance Cardano's relevance than a glad handing party of the usual faces. @emurgo_io will support serious Marketing and Branding efforts. There is a lot more I want to say but I want to call upon all DRep to vote "Yes" to the IOR proposal and for those who have abstained or voted "No" to reconsider. Price has changed, therefore, the value & importance of the proposal has increased.
