Privacy needs more than technology.

It needs people who can explain it, defend it, and bring it into real communities 🌍

That is the mission of the Nightforce: Midnight's Ambassador Program.

Contributors around the world are helping educate, onboard, and grow the Midnight ecosystem.

If you care about rational privacy, join us 🛡️

One team. One dream.

Cardano Community, it is time to cast your vote!

The 5am earth Foundation proposal is officially live and waiting for your support. This is a massive leap for real-world assets (RWA) on our network.

The proposal funds an open, Cardano-anchored trust layer that connects smallholder farmers to global financial systems, credit, and fair pricing using self-sovereign identity and verifiable on-chain data.

Here is what is on the line for Cardano

Scale from the current 500 daily Mainnet registrations to 500,000 farmers across India, Cambodia, and Kenya.

Drive toward Vision 2030 targets, 3 million active users, $900 million TVL, and 16 to 20 million ADA in annual protocol revenue.

Prove that Cardano can host enterprise-grade, public good infrastructure that generates real economic activity.

Yesterday the maybe most unexpected moment of my professional career so far happened.

I was invited to the German Parliament to speak at a panel about Agent-To-Agent Payments using Blockchain.

An absolutely unreal moment.

The room was packed with politician & businesses. I spoke about our work with Masumi, the work with Serviceplan, how companies are hiring & selling agents on our agent marketplace today already and why we chose to build on Cardano.

Big shout-out and thanks to Bundesblock and Member of Parliament Marvin Schulz.

@MauroAndreoliA @Cardano excelente! 👏👏

[Tomas Garro @cryptomas45]

@Rahulkonudula @trivolvetech @Cardano_CF @Catalyst_onX @F_Gregaard this is 🔥

congrats!

[Tomas Garro @cryptomas45]

@Cardano enterprise solutions don't generate real on-chain transactions, they're a waste of time they said.

@trivolvetech team: "Hold my beer 🍺"
proceeds to drop 100k legit forensic transactions on mainnet with Indian government officials from Uttar Pradesh Police.

Case closed, your honor⚖️😂

[Trivolve Tech @trivolvetech]

🚨BREAKING🚨

Our Forensic Management System is the FIRST EVER enterprise grade project to surpass 100,000+ transactions on Cardano mainnet!

A huge thank you to the entire @Cardano ecosystem for your support. 🙏

[Tomas Garro @cryptomas45]

Excited about this @COTInetwork x @midnightfdn partnership🔐

Privacy is where blockchain gets practical: private DeFi, RWAs, identity, payments, payroll, business contracts, enterprise data, AI agents, and compliance workflows where you can prove what matters without exposing everything.

COTI brings Garbled Circuits for fast encrypted computation.

Midnight brings ZK, selective disclosure, and programmable privacy.

And midnight-3:native is already live on ethereum:0xddb3422497e61e13543bea06989c0789117555c5 Network through @chain_port, which means more liquidity, access, and builder surface area across both ecosystems.

It's great to see bridges forming between serious privacy ecosystems🤝

[COTI Foundation @COTInetwork]

Two of Web3's leading privacy protocols. One shared mission.

COTI is partnering with @MidnightNtwrk to advance the global privacy ecosystem. 🔐

[Mauro Andreoli || Cardano & Midnight Ambassador @MauroAndreoliA]

How does Cardano work? What is its consensus mechanism?

@Cardano uses a uniquely energy-efficient, peer-reviewed Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism called Ouroboros. Instead of relying on energy-intensive mining hardware, Ouroboros selects validators (known as slot leaders) to create new blocks based on the amount of cryptocurrency (ADA) they hold and stake in the network.

Waves Studio, a design company, and I were discussing how there aren't many short, informative videos out there explaining basic concepts for new users anymore. So we got to work, and from time to time we'll be releasing one.

Watch the video and let us know what you think.

[Midnight Foundation @midnightfdn]

We're excited to partner with @COTInetwork to advance privacy standards, empower builders, and expand what's possible for privacy-preserving applications across Web3.

The privacy ecosystem grows stronger when we build together. 🤝

[₳lex Maaza @planetmaaz]

Such a cool project & proposal. impactful onchain, for business, for people

if you or your DRep isn’t on this https://t.co/khQGKBEFyy train, you gotta ask yourself:

do you even Cardano?

[Danny 🐣 @dannyribar]

i'm glad that cardano's continued research proposal from iog passed on chain that seeks to continue to position cardano as a research leader in the field of web3 and beyond

arguably - in the era of ai acceleration/continued exploits left and right across protocols - this foundational principle of provable security is going to be fundamental difference between success and failure that ecosystem can rely and build atop long term

let's see how this unfold in practice

would be great to have periodic research progress town halls/presentations/AMAs as time passes and give spotlight to these amazing researchers first hand that i've also come to work with over the years - fantastic work they've done that often goes taken for granted automatically

good luck! (to us all)

approved proposal is anchored around 3 priorities:

1. Human-centred design improves usability, incentives, and governance participation through enhanced DevEx (e.g. decentralized APIs), better SPO alignment, and reduced user friction via intent-based interaction.

2. Scalability is addressed through a layered architecture combining consensus improvements (Leios/Peras integration), L2 execution and ZK-enabled scaling, and mid-term research like sharding.

3. Post-quantum security ensures long-term resilience through evaluation and migration of quantum-resistant cryptographic primitives, supported by a cross-cutting roadmap spanning security, transaction efficiency, ZK/L2 infrastructure, and partner chains.

The programme is organised into 7 work packages aligned to ecosystem outcomes:

WP1 Trust Security & Reliability Infrastructure
WP2 Scalability & Execution Layer
WP3 Developer Platform & User Experience
WP4 Applications, Adoption & Liquidity
WP5 Economic Systems & Incentives
WP6 Governance, Identity & Social Infrastructure
WP7 Delivery, Dissemination & Partnerships.

proposal delivers 42 outputs across the innovation pipeline:

- 38 papers and technical reports at early TRL
- 8 Cardano Problem Statements (CPS)
- 12 prototypes at mid-TRL (including Leios/Peras integration designs, dynamic fee mechanisms, SPO incentive models, and a decentralised Babel fee marketplace);
- 5 Cardano Improvement Proposals (CIPs) enabling implementation in identity services, ZK-enabled L2 scalability, and post-quantum security.

It's not every day you see Cardano mentioned on the main @Olympics website 🤷‍♂️

Yesterday, we shared some comments from the community about 5am:
https://t.co/IPGGJ6FY6Q

Here are some comments from the DReps:
"I cannot convey how pleased I am to see this proposal. Finally — we have a massively qualified initiative led by highly qualified people. The impact potential of funding this proposal is massive."
— Kyle Solomon

"Cardano's technology is being used not only in the world of cryptocurrencies, but also to directly address real-world challenges such as agriculture and finance in developing countries."
— MUEN

"This proposal represents precisely the type of strategic initiative that Cardano must champion to achieve global maturity. It strikes a flawless balance between creating technical value and driving socio-economic inclusion."
— Latam Cardano

"This proposal is not really about agriculture. It's about turning real-world trust and economic activity into Cardano-native infrastructure."
— Blockjock (James Meidinger)

"This is one of the clearest adoption-oriented proposals in the current treasury batch... Cardano needs more proposals that can turn infrastructure into transactions, users, financial activity, and real-world value."
— STORM Partners

"No brainer. The on-chain activity is there. Proposal backed by real economic activity."
— Cash

"Changing my vote to yes. The perfect is the enemy of the good, and I think this is good. We need more adoption."
— This Corrosion

The UTXO model is more complex than the account model, but I think its utility is far greater in many ways.

This is one of the reasons I'm long-term bullish on Cardano.
