After around 4 months of back and forth with Pentad & Intersect. Pentad steering committee decided not to reimburse Iagon for the Fireblocks integration fee.
@IntersectMBO recommend it to be approved but Pentad committee decided against.
This integration is a necessary stop-gap solution in order to provide institutional custody solutions for Cardano. If it goes well, this will lead to native integration. This is the solution that was recommend by Fireblocks to show ARR.
We also made steps early on to contact a host of dApps, market makers, capital funds, that could benefit from this solution to see what type of features they would like to see within the integration.
We even invited CF's Global Head of Technical Integrations @michaeldotada to make sure the features were in alignment with the goals. Michiel also attended every meeting leading up to the commercial agreement with Fireblocks.
This is Cardano wide integration, helps every CNT and at the same time provides $ADA native staking and voting features.
It is worth noting that FB wanted to work with us on this stop-gap integration and not the pentad members. They had the option of working with others and choose not to. Prior to pentad formalizing, we were assured by many of their members that they would have no objection to this reimbursement. Our plan was to go to the treasury prior to their pentad proposal being proposed within the Cardano treasury. We waited because of these verbal assurances.
@IagonOfficial will still continue this integration for Cardano and pay for the full fee. We don't plan to go to the treasury for a refund. We hope you like what we deliver. Excited for the end result!

Public service announcement 📣
We signed a 1-year loan option with @ambergroup_io.
We’ll be sending 5,000,000 IAG from the team wallet into this arrangement.
Why this matters (2 big wins):
Deeper liquidity on CEXs
More market-making depth = tighter spreads, better fills, and less slippage for everyone. That’s a direct upgrade to the day-to-day trading experience.
Extends the “lock” on part of the team allocation
This effectively keeps a portion of team tokens out of circulation for at least 1 more year, adding additional alignment and reducing near-term supply pressure.
Who is Amber Group?
Amber is a well-known digital asset firm that works across liquidity, execution, and institutional crypto services. In simple terms: they’re one of the groups that can help ensure there’s reliable two-sided liquidity so markets function smoother.
What’s next:
This is not “one and done.” We’re actively planning conversations with additional market makers to continue improving liquidity depth across venues. The goal is simple: make $IAG easier to trade at size, with less friction, for everyone.
More updates as we add depth. 🧑🚀💽
USDC liquidity to Cardano??
SOLVED 🚀🚀
My buddies of @ApexFusion have come to the rescue.
This news just came in blazing hot 🔥
Read and Retweet if you are a @Cardano happy camper 😃😃

We're proud to welcome @IOHK_Charles, CEO of @InputOutputHK, to The Digital Chamber's advisory board. His blockchain innovation and leadership will advance our mission of shaping digital asset policy and fostering industry growth.
It's come to my attention that apparently @Cointelegraph's editor in chief refuses to publish a retraction about the story they ran on the alleged ada voucher theft.
Apparently, they will run a story that we are "pressuring them". Telling people to tell the truth about what happened, isn't pressure, it's basic journalistic integrity, which @Cointelegraph lacks at its core.
As an industry, we need to do better and if you run a project in crypto, I'd recommend pulling your ads from cointelegraph, attending their events, and legitimizing them.
Accusing IOG of stealing 600 million dollars is defamation at the highest level. Giving a platform for it without even contacting us and not correcting the record once we have been fully exonerated is equally defamatory and reckless.
