#Cardano is the eUTXO that will change the world. Join the revolution.

[JamOnBread.io @JamOnBread_io]

Cardano's Leios testnet launches June 23. 🔥

Target: 10-65x throughput increase, pushing toward 1,000+ TPS.

A faster, more scalable Cardano benefits everyone building on it - including us. 🍞

[Jason Appleton (Crypto Crow) @jasonappleton]

If you want a Drep that isn't going to crash out anytime soon, has been in Cardano since 2017 and genuinely cares about the mission of Cardano and Midnight, I'm here for you. Or, become a Drep yourself and get involved! drep1ytfwpmt2fvdnyvlswyjyggpf8alwkpm7ha6cua9nsak525ssmvm57

I’ve never seen a Cardano holder going around begging people to join us.

What I have seen is holders from countless other projects showing up every single day, trying to convince #Cardano people to leave, switch sides, and join their communities. Think about that for a moment. If their ecosystems were truly everything they claim to be, why is so much energy spent trying to recruit people from Cardano?

The truth is simple. $ADA holders know exactly what they own. We know the value of our network, our technology, our community, and our vision for the future. We are not chasing trends, we are building conviction. We do not need to knock on doors because we are already home.

And that is why they keep coming. Deep down, they know what Cardano brings to the table. They know the strength of the #CardanoCommunity. They know the loyalty. They know the resilience. They know that when people truly understand Cardano, many choose to stay. That’s why the recruitment never stops.

You don’t spend your time trying to take people from something weak. You spend your time trying to take people from something strong.

Cardano doesn’t need to chase attention. Attention keeps chasing Cardano.

JUST IN: Cardano $ADA named one of Fortune's 30 projects pushing the digital asset ecosystem forward 🇺🇸

Cardano is featured in the "Blockchains & Protocols" category.

Fortune is one of the world's most established business media brands, behind the iconic Fortune 500.

[NightSwap @NightSwapLabs]

The amount of hate Cardano gets is actually bullish.

Nobody attacks something this hard unless it's a threat.

One day the market will realize the level of FUD, manipulation, and double standards Cardano has endured for years.

Do your own research. Ignore the paid KOLs

[Midnight N8 @NathanCWest]

Many people compare Zcash and Midnight because both use advanced cryptography and privacy technologies.

But they are solving very different problems.

🛡️ Zcash = Private Money

🌙 Midnight = Private Applications

Let's break it down.

Zcash was built to answer a simple question:

"How can people send money privately?"

Using zk-SNARKs, Zcash can hide:

✅ Sender
✅ Receiver
✅ Transaction Amount
This makes it one of the most advanced privacy payment systems ever created.

Midnight asks a much bigger question:

"How can we build an entire digital economy where privacy is programmable?"

Not just payments.

Everything.

👤 Identity
🤖 AI Agents
🏥 Healthcare
🏦 Finance
📄 Documents
🏢 Enterprise Data

Think of it this way:
Zcash protects transactions.
Midnight protects data.
That's a huge difference.
Most blockchain data today is completely public.
Midnight was designed to change that.

The recent Zcash vulnerability highlighted one of the challenges privacy chains face.

When data is hidden, proving that a bug was never exploited becomes difficult.

Even if a flaw is patched quickly, uncertainty can impact confidence.

Privacy is powerful.

But privacy also creates new design challenges.

Midnight approaches privacy differently.

Its core philosophy is:

🔒 Protect data
👁️ Reveal only what's necessary

This concept is called Selective Disclosure.

You can prove information without exposing everything.

For example:

Instead of revealing your full identity...

You could prove:

✅ Over 18
✅ Licensed Professional
✅ Accredited Investor
✅ Authorized Employee
Without exposing your personal information.

That's where privacy becomes useful beyond payments.

This is especially important for businesses.

Most companies cannot place sensitive information on public blockchains.

Customer records.

Medical records.

Trade secrets.
Financial data.
Midnight aims to make blockchain usable for these industries.

Where things get really interesting:

🤖 AI

The future won't just be humans using blockchains.

It will be autonomous agents.

AI systems buying, selling, negotiating, and interacting on our behalf.

Imagine an AI agent:

✅ Proving its permissions
✅ Accessing confidential data
✅ Executing contracts
✅ Making payments

Without exposing private information publicly.

That's a massive opportunity.

This is where concepts like "Midnight City" become interesting.

A future ecosystem where:

🏢 Businesses
🤖 AI Agents
👤 Users
🔐 Digital Identities

Can interact privately while remaining verifiable.

Another key difference:

🪙 Zcash = Primarily a privacy currency

🌙 Midnight = A privacy platform
Developers can build:
• Private DeFi
• Private Identity Systems
• Private AI Applications
• Enterprise Solutions
• Government Services
On top of the network.

To be clear:

Zcash deserves enormous credit.

Its research, cryptography, and privacy innovations helped push the entire industry forward.

Without projects like Zcash, many modern privacy technologies wouldn't exist.

But the market opportunity may be much larger than private payments alone.
The future may require:
🔒 Private AI
🔒 Private Identity
🔒 Private Data
🔒 Private Applications

Not just private transactions.

Simple analogy:

🛡️ Zcash:
"Let's make cash private."

🌙 Midnight:
"Let's make the entire digital economy private."

As AI, digital identity, and enterprise adoption grow, that distinction could become increasingly important.

[Jure @JureKaramarko]

Dear @coinbureau,

Since you deleted the Cardano post after pressure from the community, I am now asking you, since you are the biggest investor and co-owner of theKOLLAB agency from Dubai, to kindly ask all those garbage KOLs you control and who work for you to also delete the trash you have all been coordinating and systematically posting together for months against Cardano, creating a narrative that damaged this great project.

All the top-tier KOLs who have been systematically trashing Cardano for months, mocking it, belittling it, and shaping the narrative are all part of your network.

I am calling on the @IOHK_Charles, @Cardano_CF, @IOGroup, @emurgo_io, and all other Cardano fans to investigate these connections more deeply, because this constant dumping on #Cardano has been going on for far too long, and it is time to put an end to it and start digging somewhere.

There are too many connections here, and this needs to be seriously investigated. Either someone is paying these people to do this, or they have all collectively lost their minds. Something is definitely going on here.

[Jesper F 🏴‍☠️ @JesperFluX]

Still here... #Cardano

[Cardanians (CRDN) @Cardanians_io]

Remember when Solana bottomed at $8 after FTX?

Everyone called it a dead chain. Done for good.

Then it ran towards a new ATH and turned every doubter into a holder.

$ADA is sitting in that exact spot now, counted out & written off.

Only those who've been here long enough know that's not true.

Most of the loudest voices on X have no idea what Cardano actually is.

It's time for all of us to focus on the right things, show the whole crypto world Cardano's resilience, and run it back.

And there are several things coming that could push us in this direction, Leios is one of them.

Looking forward to proving all the haters wrong. 🐺

[Weiss Crypto @WeissCrypto]

Regardless of one's opinion on the success or lack thereof of $ADA, Hoskinson is a man who dedicates sweat and tears to crypto, and that should be respected.

[🪏Ed n'Stuff @EdnStuff]

Yes the markets are down. But #Cardano is bleeding harder because we air our grievances, dirty laundry, and sausage making in public, and our governance accelerates this. Our comms and governance must and will change for ours and $ADA’s sake. It's being worked on.

[Dave @ItsDave_ADA]

I believe in Cardano and it's community.

[Rod | DRMZ @rod_drmz]

People talk about ADA like it's the only chart that's down. Meanwhile:

BTC: ~49% below ATH
ETH: ~63% below ATH
SOL: ~76% below ATH
DOGE: ~88% below ATH
ADA: ~90%+ below ATH
AVAX: ~90%+ below ATH
LINK: ~75–80% below ATH

The story of this cycle hasn't been Cardano.
It's been Bitcoin dominance.

Capital flowed into BTC while most alts got crushed.
Cardano isn't alone. The entire alt market has been fighting the same headwind.

The question isn't whether ADA is down. The question is what happens when capital rotates back out of Bitcoin. 👀

[Pete | Beware of Scammers @astroboysoup]

While haters shit on Cardano, devs keep building and solving the blockchain trilemma by delivering scalability to Cardano while maintaining its decentralisation and security!

Leios is coming this month to testnet, delivering scaling to the chain.

[Andrew Westberg @amw7]

As one of the official interim-CEOs of Cardano today, I have some announcements to make.

- The SPO call was full today with good participation. Everyone is preparing for the Van Rossem hardfork. SPOs are upgrading to 11.0.1 release to ensure they are ready.
- I have had 3 meetings with development teams and all are still building.
- I'm personally working on a demo wallet for @Shield_USD on Midnight. The guts are working and I'm on to the fun part of the UX. @iamwilco has some amazing designer skills.

[Dave @ItsDave_ADA]

Cardano is run, owned, and it's future is decided on by ADA holders.

That is the beauty of a decentralised blockchain, and another positive of Cardano.

[NightSwap @NightSwapLabs]

People love to complain about Charles.

But they forget legendary moments like these.

Charles built Cardano from scratch.

He gave billions of $NIGHT to the community for free.

All those years, he dedicated his time, energy, and passion to Cardano and Midnight.

Instead of complaining, maybe it’s time to show some support and appreciation for everything he has done for this ecosystem.

Because after every bear market comes a bull market.

Don’t complain. Show some love.

Drop a 💙 to say: Thank you, Charles.

[Jason Appleton (Crypto Crow) @jasonappleton]

I'm personally tired of the bots and trolls crashing out on Charles. The market has been getting manipulated down for the past year. "They" want a reset before Clarity. It's the banks, institutions and politicians that have been orchestrating all of this. Retail had fun with the gimmicks, scams, imaginative use cases, internal manipulations etc, but that is coming to a close as the big boys come to play with Trillions of $$.

The only reason Charles gets the brunt of the anger, fear and frustrations of the ecosystem is because he opted to put himself out there in a transparent way with every thought, effort, goal and compromise he considers. What other ecosystem has its founder putting themselves out there the way Charles does?

Cardano isn't down because Cardano sucks, has failed, Charles is mean, or any of this nonsense. It's a risk on asset in a sea of assets being shaken out of retail hands before the real strengths of these chains are put to legitimate use by the very institutions funding the markets we trade in. The club has been built, the DJ is unloading his crate, the music is soon to begin and while the guys are suits are being let in through the back door, we aren't invited unless we are smart enough to have the foresight and understanding that to play with the big boys, you have to think like them, understand their plays and stop playing victim to the game.

When Clarity passes as the necessity that it is for the banks to survive the Quantum threat and the chains more advanced in their quantum proofing state take the lead, there is NO OTHER FUCKING CHAIN that has been designed, developed and continues to expand its reach and capabilities than Cardano and thats why IM NOT FUCKING SELLING! I'll work every job I can, take on as many AI clients as possible, grind my daily work, my content, whatever I have to to survive where we are. We've ALL been played. But I'm not a victim, I'm a fucking pioneer. I was of the first, I've been here ever since and I'm not going anywhere. The world HAS to change or everything collapses and it has to change to quantum proof blockchain rails or no bank account is safe. AI with Quantum computing access? HAH!

It really is time for everyone to get a grip. Whats done is done. It doesnt change where we have been, what we have accomplished or where we are going.

Tired of the bots and trolls? Block them all. The power they have is the power we give them through out engagement. Its time to clean house. If you shit on Cardano, Charles are just a senseless toxic shit stirrer, I'm blocking you. Period. I'm done with the drama and the negativity. Now is the time for UNITY under pressure with the focus being how we rise with the coming tide and it is coming, you can take that FROM the bank and put it onto any one of these legit blockchains. Most of these chains in the Top 50 will be used for different things.

When the market turns, its going to be hard and fast and likely at a moment you least expect it because they will wait until everyone last one of us has been shaken out before the flood waves drives uptrends that leave everyone wondering WTF is happening and your exit prices are blown away forcing you to buy back in higher than you sold and your disbelief and confusion keeps you from pushing the buy button. This is all by design and this time, this bear cycle, is very much diffferent...dont get caught off guard because you're too busy bickering about nonsense with others in your community. Its time to focus.

Crow Your Coins

[ADA Lebanon @AdaLebanon]

Been in $ADA since 2018. Never sold a single Ada.

Sold everything else. Just staking and holding.

@IOHK_Charles taking a break doesn't scare me. The man built something real and he deserves the space.

The noise on X is loud right now. But I've seen loud before.

See you on the other side. 🤝

[Frederik Gregaard @F_Gregaard]

What matters long term is not short-term market sentiment, but whether an ecosystem continues to build meaningful infrastructure and attract real adoption.

Cardano today has:

Decentralized Governance operating at scale through CIP-1694 and on-chain voting

One of the strongest open-source communities in the industry, with contributors building across research, protocol development, tooling, and applications worldwide

Institutional Transparency anchored directly on-chain, where governance actions, treasury activity, and ecosystem operations are publicly verifiable

Growing DeFi initiatives including
Bifrost by Fluid Tokens
Pogun by IOG
Sundial Protocol
Charms
BTC Karma
Expanding RWA and digital identity infrastructure through projects like Veridian and tokenization initiatives across multiple regions

Global public/private sector collaborations spanning education, telecommunications, digital identity, and blockchain infrastructure

Examples of transparent on-chain activity already visible today include:

DRep registrations and governance actions
Treasury withdrawals and constitutional committee activity
Ecosystem and partner network activity
Native asset issuance and RWA directly on London Stock Exchange
20.000 farmers in India combining satellite data, identity, education and industry

Everything verifiable. Everything auditable. Built in public.

The work continues.
