Yesterday the maybe most unexpected moment of my professional career so far happened.
I was invited to the German Parliament to speak at a panel about Agent-To-Agent Payments using Blockchain.
An absolutely unreal moment.
The room was packed with politician & businesses. I spoke about our work with Masumi, the work with Serviceplan, how companies are hiring & selling agents on our agent marketplace today already and why we chose to build on Cardano.
Big shout-out and thanks to Bundesblock and Member of Parliament Marvin Schulz.
Today, @The_DTCC and SDF are announcing plans to enable the tokenization of DTC-custodied assets on Stellar.
The connection supports the rapid conversion of traditional assets into tokenized form, and the full asset lifecycle, including corporate actions and reporting.

DTCC and the Stellar Development Foundation announced today plans to enable the tokenization of DTC‑custodied assets on the @StellarOrg network. This collaboration advances DTCC’s multi chain strategy and expands how traditional assets move across digital ecosystems.
DTC‑tokenized assets are expected to be made available on the Stellar network in the first half of 2027, supporting the evolution of a more open, interoperable, and efficient financial ecosystem.

If you're a Cardano holder, please repost this immediately.
We've come to an absolute defining moment for ADA.
In the next 48 hours, the proposals that fund Cardano development are being decided.
While the #2 chain in crypto loses their builders or researchers, Cardano can keep theirs, at one of the most critical times of the altcoin cycle.
Cardano has come this far. It can not stop here.
DReps, think about the impact here.
Holders, make your voice heard.
Today, Mastercard, @OndoFinance, Kinexys by @JPMorgan, and @Ripple successfully completed a landmark transaction connecting a public blockchain with interbank settlement rails.
Together, we’re laying the groundwork for 24/7 global markets that never close.
Video from the Austrian pavilion at the Venice Biennale:
Artist Florentina Holzinger hangs upside down inside a giant bronze bell. She swings back and forth and literally “rings” the bell with her own body.
This is part of a large-scale installation about the climate apocalypse. The bell with a person inside symbolizes a warning about the coming flood.
The Biennale officially opens on May 9, 2026, but the performance has already begun.
JUST IN: Cardano $ADA is now accepted as payment at 137 SPAR supermarkets across Switzerland. 🇨🇭
Cardano Foundation secured the integration in partnership with @DFX_swiss.
Transactions are processed in real time, no centralized exchange needed.
HUGE news! @Ripple just received conditional approval from the @USOCC to charter Ripple National Trust Bank. This is a massive step forward - first for $RLUSD, setting the highest standard for stablecoin compliance with both federal (OCC) & state (NYDFS) oversight.
To the banking lobbyists – your anti-competitive tactics are transparent. You’ve complained that crypto isn’t playing by the same rules, but here’s the crypto industry – directly under the OCC's supervision and standards – prioritizing compliance, trust and innovation to the benefit of consumers. What are you so afraid of?
