TapTools had wind down operations today, we will try to continue their mission and be the homepage of Cardano trading at @DexHunterIO🫡

🚨 June 23 could be one of the biggest dates in #Cardano’s history.

The Ouroboros Leios public testnet is scheduled to launch, bringing Cardano’s most ambitious scaling upgrade into public testing.

Leios targets up to 65x higher throughput and moves the network toward 1,000+ TPS while preserving decentralization.

[Draper University @draper_u]

It’s official. @DraperDragon $80m @OrionFund is open for business. And Draper University is leading the programs that help find and uplift the earliest builders.

The fund is built to turn Cardano's technical leadership into global, venture-scaled growth.

We are searching for the founders who will drive the next $3b in TVL.

UPDATE: Midnight's $NIGHT token now has 76,300+ holders.

It's the largest Cardano-native token by market cap, and one of the largest by number of holders.

[Linda @Cryptofly777]

Curious what’s on the other side?

Cardano’s ecosystem continues to grow.

Bridge to Cardano and start exploring 😏

[Pete | Beware of Scammers @astroboysoup]

This might sound like a small update, but it's actually a pretty big UX improvement for Cardano.

@MinswapDEX is now sponsoring collateral for users.

That means:

✅ No more setting up collateral manually
✅ No more 'no collateral found' errors
✅ No more keeping 5 ADA locked in your wallet

For years, collateral has been one of those onboarding hurdles that confused new users.

Most people don't care how collateral works. They just want to swap tokens.

Now they can.

It's the kind of improvement users may never notice, which is usually a sign of good product design.

One less Cardano papercut. Nice work from the Minswap team.

Hello Cardano! 💙

We want every builder and every dApp to be BIFROST ready as soon as we go live:

→ We make sure Bifrost is compatible with your smart contracts
→ We offer a whitelabel solution, in which users will be able to deposit BTC into your dApp
→ We help you to integrate Bifrost at 0 cost

This is how it will work 👇

[Eternl @eternlwallet]

Our proposal is due in 3 days. Please put your vote on-chain, if you haven't already.

If you are an ADA holder and want to support Eternl, please delegate to a DRep who voted yes. It's a simple transaction (will be made even easier in our upcoming v2.1.0).

Thanks to everyone who has already taken the time to make their voices heard. 🙏

[Linda @Cryptofly777]

New Cardano Roadmap just dropped! 🚀

After the majority of Input Output's proposals got funded, let's take a look at

- what's actually being built
- & which new features we can expect over the coming year and beyond

[Everstake @everstake_pool]

Cardano is going to surprise everyone this year!

We firmly believe that cardano:native is one of the most undervalued projects in the entire space and our support for this amazing ecosystem is unwavering.

We are seeing massive signs of dormant wallets awakening. There are huge spikes in the age consumed metric which means that older coins are finally starting to move in a big way. Historically this kind of movement from long term holders is a very strong signal for a major trend reversal.

The market might be distracted right now but the fundamentals are incredibly bullish. We are so proud to stand with this community and secure the network!

Cardano will win!

[Don Digital Finance @niroshan682]

If someone asked me today what the best crypto investment is, I’d answer without hesitation: $ADA.

Strong fundamentals, growing adoption, decentralized governance, and one of the most committed communities in crypto.

That’s where my conviction is. 💙

[Baddie Mattie @Plutus_Plumbus]

Hope this is true.

I am often critical of CF, but if they take a step into the DeFi ecosystem it's a step in the positive direction.

Cardano's Leios testnet launches June 23. 🔥

Target: 10-65x throughput increase, pushing toward 1,000+ TPS.

A faster, more scalable Cardano benefits everyone building on it - including us. 🍞

[Cardano Foundation @Cardano_CF]

$ADA is now included in the new @Nasdaq and @CMEGroup crypto index futures, alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other market leaders.

The Cardano ecosystem keeps maturing, and Wall Street is noticing.

[Patrick Tobler @Padierfind]

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.

[Frederik Gregaard @F_Gregaard]

Incredible excited and proud about the @trivolvetech team for having rounded 100.000 tx on Cardano. It secures human rights and protects the population with a Forensic Management System secured by Cardano
