Philippians 4:6-7
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Good Morning Cardano
Serviceplan Group, the marketing agency who also works for companies like BMW, Netflix, Amazon, etc. has just submitted an official Marketing proposal for the Intersect Budget process.
After 1.5 years of building Masumi & becoming closer & closer to Cardano, they've decided that they want to become Cardanos official Marketing partner.
Some disclaimers first:
1) I am an unpaid advisor to this proposal. Yes, unpaid.
I do not get any money if it wins but I've decided to give some of my time & help Serviceplan with connections into the ecosystem because I believe that professional marketing like this is very much needed in Cardano.
2) This is a joint proposal coming from multiple different agencies from inside the Serviceplan Group. Serviceplan has around 6000+ employees.
The team working on this is a different team than the one working on Masumi.
3) This proposal is not a grant or some speculative investment or so. It's an actual proposal for very specific work package that will be carried out. It's the first time SP has ever done "public pitch" like this, normally they're used to pitching in front of marketing departments of large enterprises. 6 months of work went into drafting this proposal. So please be nice, even when you have criticism. :)
4) Serviceplan is the only entity that I know of from outside of Cardano that has invested a Multi-Million dollar amount into Cardano development in recent years. I'm not sure I'm allowed to say the exact number but let's just say this: If they win this proposal + the Catalyst proposals they've received for Masumi, it will still be less than what they've invested into Cardano so far.
That alone should be reason to take a very serious look at this.
Now about the proposal itself:
The goal of this proposal is to broadly "reposition" Cardano as the Blockchain for serious business.
It's specially built so it captures Leads & distributes them into the ecosystem.
The main pillars that the proposal focuses on are 1) DeFi and 2) Supply Chain.
Now I highly recommend everyone for read through the full proposal, I will put the link to the PDF into the comments.
Iran has reportedly kidnapped the families of the Iranian women’s soccer team members who requested asylum & the women are now abandoning those claims and returning to the country to face torture or death. No prominent left wing American women’s soccer players have said a word.

Dear crypto holder, this is one of the most important macro signals of the cycle.
The Russell 2000 just broke into price discovery.
For decades, this tracks the PMI business cycle with insane accuracy.
Similar moves have happened in:
• 1991
• 2003
• 2010
• 2016
• 2020
And the last two times this happened (2016 and 2020) crypto was preparing its own bull market move, and getting ready to follow Russell 2000.
This is not a guarantee, but with falling inflation, and dovish FED chair inbound, at least consider the possibilities.
A leading force in cancer innovation is making real strides. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong & ImmunityBio are powering ahead with Anktiva, a groundbreaking IL-15 superagonist immunotherapy that activates & multiplies the body’s natural killer (NK) cells & memory T cells to precisely hunt down & destroy tumors.
Instead of harsh chemo that damages healthy cells & weakens immunity, Anktiva restores & strengthens the immune system for targeted, longer lasting attacks, offering hope for fewer side effects & better outcomes.
The visionary behind it,@DrPatrick, surgeon, inventor & ImmunityBio’s Founder, Executive Chairman & Global Chief Scientific Officer.
Anktiva earned U.S. FDA approval in 2024 for BCG unresponsive non muscle invasive #BladderCancer (NMIBC) with carcinoma in situ. In January 2026, the Saudi FDA granted accelerated approvals for:
• Anktiva + checkpoint inhibitors in metastatic non small cell #LungCancer (a world first for subcutaneous IL-15 therapy!)
• #Anktiva + BCG in BCG
unresponsive NMIBC
Plus, strong trial data show immune restoration, prolonged survival in tough cases & promising signals in lung, pancreatic, glioblastoma & more.
Sales are surging too. ImmunityBio reported ~$113 million in preliminary 2025 net product revenue, a massive 700% year over year jump!
Experts stay cautiously optimistic. More trials & approvals needed, but this “Immunotherapy 2.0” shift empowering the body’s natural defenses is changing the game toward smarter, kinder cancer care.
Hope is building as science advances. The future of fighting #cancer looks brighter every day.
