#Cardano fam, They counted $ADA out. Down ~34% on the week, sitting at #15, trading near $0.16 while the headlines write its obituary.
But here’s what the obituary leaves out.
Cardano never stopped building. While the market chased hype, Cardano shipped peer-reviewed code. And the next 12 months may be the most loaded stretch in its history:
🔹 Van Rossem Hard Fork (late June) → Protocol v11, leaner Plutus contracts, a stronger ledger. The engine room is getting an overhaul.
🔹 Spot ADA ETF window opens → Grayscale, VanEck, 21Shares & Canary all in line. The single biggest demand catalyst ADA has ever faced — institutional money that can’t buy today.
🔹 Midnight → privacy + regulated assets as a partner chain. More surface area: identity, DeFi, institutional rails.
🔹 x402 + AI agent payments → Cardano positioning for the machine economy before most chains even noticed it exists.
🔹 63%+ of supply staked → a holder base that doesn’t flinch. Diamond hands aren’t a meme here, they’re the data.
Top 5 isn’t nostalgia. It’s a thesis. Research-first chains don’t sprint — they compound. And when adoption finally meets infrastructure that was built to last, the re-rate won’t be gentle.
The strongest hands accumulate when conviction is cheap.
Patience is a position.

LEIOS IS COMING
The future of @Cardano scalability is getting closer.
With the Leios testnet going live this June, the community will finally get a chance to see one of the most anticipated upgrades in action.
Leios is designed to increase throughput and help Cardano process more transactions efficiently while preserving the security and decentralization the network is known for.
This isn't just another upgrade it's a major step toward unlocking Cardano's next phase of growth.
Who's ready to test the future of Cardano?

@dangambardello Some of what you’ve said is correct but ‘secluded’🤷♂️
Back in 2017 it was clear ADA was a slow burn, it was a full infrastructure being developed & it was going to take at least a decade
The long term holders can see it still coming together
It’s still on track despite the angst
Brilliant @MidnightNtwrk not just privacy, it’s economics.
#NIGHT generates renewable #DUST
Instead of buying gas forever, businesses hold NIGHT generating own transaction capacity
Demand driven by utility, not just speculation🚀

Weekly on-chain trading volume on Cardano is at 115m $ADA.
It's a 260% increase compared to the previous week.
Other metrics such as active traders, TVL, and trades are also up.
Nice to see.
To all those spreading lies and FUD about Cardano.
These are all DeFi projects on Cardano and they are all performing extremely well.
Please do some research before spreading lies🫡

@YoramBenzvi@udaisolanki@andamio_teams@ZengateGlobal@AiquantTech
@v_vukman@JureKaramarko@coinbureau#ADA’s entering period of significant change, however not the way Fud’s pretending it will be
#Cardano’s gearing up to become a significant player during 2026
TPS +++
#Night#Brazil olympics etc etc
only truly purpose designed & robust system outside #BTC, consolidating then 🚀
@JureKaramarko Well said
Most of it is complete rubbish, taking part facts just to generate traffic
Underlying situation for #Cardano is massively bullish despite being affected by broader crypto market
#Nights been counter cyclical despite thawing ongoing
From AI (actually 3 companies not revealed)
current view unrevealed operators probably more significant than MoneyGram
fact Midnight launched +Google Cloud, Vodafone-affiliated infrastructure, Telegram-affiliated infrastructure,eToro & MoneyGram makes me think significant impact
Playing with AI
Monument deployment #Night comes out as bigger announcement than #Cardano Ethiopia student deployment 2021 & recent #ADA Brazilian Olympic sports announcement
Given a top 500 company known to still announce for #Midnight that’s potentially really significant
I’d already used AI to try to guess who the ‘top 500 company’ was
speculative so I won’t put it here
leading contender would see #Midnight#Night token head way above the $1 mark quite quickly (probably a good reason for why its being kept secret)🤫
@IOHK_Charles’s warm summer😉
van Rossem hard fork update 🍴
The Cardano PreProd testnet has ratified the hard fork action on June 5, 2026 at 00:00 UTC.
This means that PreProd will hard fork to Protocol Version 11 on June 10, 2026 at 00:00 UTC.
Another major milestone on the road to Mainnet!
