Not a fan of centralizing all of our governance discussions into a centralized Discord channel. That is moving backwards. And IMHO if it is weaponized to vote against people who are simply not members of the Discord then it arguably violates one of our Constitutional tenets.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Our Forensic Management System is the FIRST EVER enterprise grade project to surpass 100,000 transactions on Cardano mainnet! A huge thank you to the entire @Cardano ecosystem for your support. 🙏

Crypto Facts - Transparent Governance

Whale said it. I’ll say it too, and others that genuinely care about Cardano will continue to say the same thing. We need to be extremely fiscally responsible. As ADA holders, DReps, builders and long term participants in this ecosystem, every treasury withdrawal matters. Especially for those of us with significant exposure to ADA who are not asking for budget allocations ourselves. The treasury is not free capital. Every continued spend carries an opportunity cost to ADA holders and impacts long term sustainability. If Cardano wants to remain competitive and continue holding a position among the leading blockchains, spending needs to stay focused on essentials that create measurable value, strengthen infrastructure, improve adoption, or materially advance the ecosystem. Strong governance is not about approving the most proposals. It is about allocating capital carefully, understanding trade offs, and protecting the long term health of the network. That discipline matters. When is enough, enough?

I told everyone @ewarren was 100% in bed with the Banks when I debated her with @kelleratlarge as moderator. She refused to ask Jamie Dimon a single question about his bank @jpmorgan financing Epstein - the largest child-sex trafficking operation in American history. As for crypto, of course there are lots of junk projects and scams within the industry - that’s why we needed sensible regulations. ATM machines have been used for bad things like drug buys - but we don’t ban the technology. In fact, the banks are the biggest crooks in the world. JPMorgan Chase has been fined over $40B dollars for illicit activity NOT including Epstein. Bank of America, Wells Fargo, etc., all have engaged in criminal enterprises, including money laundering for some of the worst bad guys on the planet. Unlike the banks, Stablecoins require 100% reserves - which is far more safe than the fractional banking system Warren and @SenMarkey love to protect. When Warren says that the economy will crash does she mean similar to the way the banks caused the Great Financial Crisis in 2008 and then people like her and Ed Markey supported bailing those same banks out with taxpayer dollars? Warren is a fraud. @SenMarkey is a puppet. I look forward to seeing Markey on the debate stage next. #mapoli #MASen #Deaton

To be clear, if your proposal is not good enough. It's a no from me. I'll be using my voting power to block as many proposals as I believe are not feasible and required. I'll be participating as much as I can. Based on what I've seen recently submitted, this is super important. Let's go.

I’m curiously wondering, how is it possible for KelpDAO to have this level of knowledgeable Industry Investors in their Rounds yet still completely fail on Security? How is it possible? Do VCs not ask questions and ensure their investment dollars are backing a safe protocol?

Arnold Schwarzenegger just ended CNNs Jake Tapper to his face "In New Mexico 45% of the people voted for Trump… zero is sent to the House 0 representatives for the Republican Party” Would be a shame if this went viral on 𝕏 Thoughts......?? You know what to do 👇

Cardano has been reliably running 3,139 days, 0 hours, 12 minutes, 9 seconds Thats 103 months, 5 days, 12 minutes That's 8 years, 215 days. Reliability, resiliance and decentralization, unmatched and operated by independent stake pools across the world.

Sundae Labs has been using this for some of the new things we're working on, and we are *very* impressed! This tool is *transformative* when it comes to the confidence we have in the software we're building!

Cardano meets Java at JCON 2026! 🇩🇪 Fabian Bormann presented "Building a DPP with Java and Cardano," and the booth hosted conversations on Java on Cardano, dev tooling, and real-world use cases. Thanks to @jcon_conference. We can't wait to see what you build on Cardano next.

Could you elaborate on the use cases for Hydra? Does this proposal address the reasons why Hydra hasn't been widely used until now? Regarding this simple reason, in my personal opinion, it's quite difficult for "individuals" to use Hydra for three reasons, and these three reasons are not addressed by this proposal. 1) Hydra Head cannot be easily run on a browser or smartphone. Users cannot easily open Hydra Head. In that case, users would need to trust the Hydra Head administrator. 2) Hydra Head cannot be joined midway. It is not suitable for use by a large number of individuals. 3) Setting up Hydra Head and transferring funds takes more time than a simple L1 transaction. In other words, for most individuals, there is no advantage to using Hydra; simply sending money via L1 is more advantageous. Therefore, while Hydra may be used in enterprise or DeFi internal mechanisms, its use cases are limited due to the technical constraints mentioned above.

RT @matiwinnetou: There are two path for capital markets forward: - (1) they steal , we take them back - (2) we use chains (e.g. Cardano)…

By the way, I forgot to post about it during Blockchain Paris but I went to a RealFi side event and learned about what they're actually doing & discussing how to make Cardano DeFi successful. Honestly: Bullish. Very Bullish. Shoutout @ John O'Connor and RealFi team.

Pretty crazy that Arbitrum has a random unknown group of people called a “Security Council” composed of self appointed, unelected experts who have control of all six infinity stones in that universe.

Crypto Facts - The REAL yield farming

Everyone screams ‘Ethereum is decentralized’… really? Ethereum has $85.9B in TVL. Out of that, $83.4B (97%) is locked in just THREE protocols: Lido, Aave, and EigenLayer. Imagine if ONE of them gets hacked or taken down — the entire DeFi house of cards collapses. Meanwhile, Cardano doesn’t need a Lido to offer liquid staking. It’s built natively into the base layer. No single point of failure, no billion-dollar protocol holding the network hostage. Decentralization isn’t about narratives. It’s about design!
