@solidsnakedev Awesome work Jonathan! You're helping to make Midnight (and so many other dApps) safer and better! Thanks for that!

[Bharat M @bharatontech]

@Padierfind @Faizan12620 Patrick, I managed to finally meet Faizan in IBW hackathon! He attended Emurgo Academy's training programs and I've always wanted to meet him. I thought I'll catch up again with you and Faizan the next day but my bum knee acted up and I couldn't make it! 😭

[Bharat M @bharatontech]

@Padierfind @bytegen_dev Wow, that's awesome to hear. I'm evaluating how I can use Veridian for an upcoming healthcare project.

[Bharat M @bharatontech]

@_KtorZ_ Hope so... 🤞

[Bharat M @bharatontech]

Here's a great video on KERI by it's creator Samuel M. Smith. It's 5 years old but so informative!

Evaluating the Veridian wallet and its underlying KERI architecture for our project stack.

KERI’s approach to self-certifying identifiers is genuinely interesting—and its blockchain/platform-agnostic yet fully accommodative design makes a lot of sense for real-world healthcare workflows.

Exploring how this could integrate into our proposed healthcare system over the next few days.

Yearn Finance - one of DeFi's most audited protocols - just got drained yesterday.

Unlimited minting bug in the yETH pool.

CertiK, Trail of Bits, Quantstamp, MixBytes have all audited Yearn contracts. Plus many more.

Millions spent on security theater. And users still lost everything.

This is what nobody wants to talk about:

No audits = completely unacceptable
With audits = still not safe

So where does that leave us?

Stuck in security limbo. Pretending we're ready for mass adoption when we're clearly not.

The truth? Audits catch surface-level bugs. They're liability shields for founders, not protection for users. They check boxes so lawyers can say "we did our due diligence."

But they don't catch the sophisticated exploits. They don't prevent unlimited minting bugs. They don't stop the creativity of attackers who think in ways auditors never considered.

Real security doesn't start with an audit.

It starts with proper foundation:

🔸Safer asset structures that eliminate entire attack vectors
🔸No approval mechanisms to exploit
🔸Smart contracts designed with formal verification from day one
🔸Mathematical verifiability, not just "looks good to me"
🔸Protocol-level protections, not band-aids on broken architecture

Chains like MultiversX, Cardano, and Algorand built this in from the start. Native assets. No unlimited approvals. Security by design, not by afterthought.

Meanwhile, EVM chains keep building on the same broken foundation and slapping audits on top like that'll fix it.

It won't.

Yearn is just the latest proof. There will be more tomorrow. And next week. And next month.

Until we admit the hard truth: Web3 is still early. The infrastructure isn't ready. And pretending otherwise just puts more users at risk.

You can't audit your way out of fundamentally flawed architecture.

So stop acting like you can.

Historic moment for Hydra! This weekend marked the first time ever that Hydra was featured at a hackathon, and what an incredible debut it was!

At the Cardano Hackathon 2025 @IBWofficial with ~400 participants, I had the privilege of representing @InputOutputHK and Hydra as both mentor and jury member. The energy and innovation were absolutely inspiring:

- Over 15 teams chose to build on Hydra!
- The winning team for Track 1 (General Cardano Track) was a Hydra project!
- Developers are excited about Layer 2 scaling solutions for Cardano

Huge thanks to @emurgo_io for facilitating this event and making Hydra part of it. It was wonderful to see @emurgo_io, @InputOutputHK, @Cardano_CF and @IntersectMBO coming together to support the Cardano builder community.

This is just the beginning - seeing real developers building real solutions with Hydra is great validation.

The future of Cardano scaling is looking bright!

[MacroMan 🌎🐉 @ThaMacroMan]

Hydra in (almost) real time! @IOHKMedia @IOHK_Charles

I built this to show how fast hydra really is, and how it works in practice

ITS FAST. Next, to apply to real world apps

> Core Solidity takes ideas from pure functional programming languages (e.g. Haskell, Lean)

Impressive that in 6yrs Ethereum went from the biggest critic of these ideas, to one of the biggest proponents (even rewriting their entire ledger and contract language around them)

[Cardano Foundation @Cardano_CF]

Applications for our Cardano Accelerator Program are now open. 🟦

The Spring 26' cohort focuses on projects building DeFi and RWA tokenization solutions on Cardano, or looking to bridge to Cardano.

Includes professional support and a 10,000 CHF grant. Apply by 4 January 2026.

India is definitely going to be a huge opportunity for Cardano expansion and inclusion.

[EMURGO @emurgo_io]

India is a major hub for Cardano builders and one of the fastest-growing regions for crypto adoption. 🇮🇳

The Grand Finale of yesterday’s Cardano Hackathon Asia 2025 @IBWofficial Edition showed strong talent density, technical depth, and fast execution with impactful output.

Our COO @No3of3J closed with a clear message.

“If Cardano is the playground, then India is the population of builders that make the playground matter.”

Congratulations to all winners across the four tracks, Core @Cardano, @MasumiNetwork AI, @MidnightNtwrk privacy, and Hydra scaling, and to the teams awarded builder bonuses for their exceptional work. 👏🏻🛠️

We look forward to seeing you at the next flagship Cardano Hackathon event.

This is insane 🤯

A new system called Paper2Video can read a scientific paper and automatically create a full presentation video slides, narration, subtitles, even a talking head of the author.

It’s called PaperTalker, and it beat human-made videos in comprehension tests.

Hours of academic video editing... gone.

AI now explains your research better than you do.

@elonmusk @grok Isn't an AI algorithm already deciding what i see? Or do you mean that i can influence grok to show me what I'd like to see?

🇮🇳 JUST IN: India’s Madras High Court ruled crypto is “property” as it ordered WazirX to post an $11.8K guarantee over a user’s XRP lost in the 2024 $235M hack.

@8ap The public doesn't care about drive integration etc etc. They want a messaging app that just works. Once they start using arattai they might slowly look at zoho. Mad onboarding is the crucial point here. If zoho succeeds in doing so, they can then have a multi step success story

[Bharat M @bharatontech]

@mauryah13 @8ap Try and try again till you succeed. You fail only when you give up trying.
