@gregbradyx With tickets starting around CAD 1,400 a seat, it's reassuring to know they're committed to keeping costs down by outsourcing pre-game, game-time, and post-game operations to unpaid volunteers. Financial innovation at its finest.

REPOST but to Cardano:

Dear @Cardano, we have been in deep discussion with
@IOHK_Charles and how recent price declines will impact their budgeting needs / ability to deliver on IO proposals. Combine that with my sincere belief that we do require more structured leadership (in conjunction with constructive community involvement);

@emurgo_io will shift to a "Yes" vote for IOR. We are at an existential moment for @Cardano where actions we take now will reverberate through our ecosystem. Also make no mistake, that every chain, is facing the same decision.

EMURGO believes the following: 1. Leadership: At this time, I believe need an executive function that is led by Charles @IOHK_Charles, Fred @F_Gregaard and myself
@phillip_pon alongside Jack @JBriggsLondon
at Intersect. The community will and must be involved.

2. Infrastructure: We need to fund infrastructure and
@IOGroup and some specific protocols / projects remain best positioned to ensure core needs are met.
@Cardano_CF also does work on these matters, alongside @IntersectMBO. @emurgo_io
maintains libraries that are used by nearly all Cardano projects.

3. Commercial: Investments must also be prioritised but we must also accept that most will fail. It is the nature of early stage investment but we must try to create a thriving ecosystem that embraces a multi-chain future. Strike offers other chains too. @LayerZero_Core
is essential to this strategy as are @circle, @PythNetwork , @DuneAnaIytics and
@FireblocksHQ.

4. Marketing & Branding: Web3 is fighting for attention in the age of AI. @Cardano has a unique opportunity to rise above the fray alongside @MidnightNtwrk @F_ZK_Now. Having said that, I am not a proponent of parties, happy hours, or 'free drinks'. Marketing & Branding are serious efforts that need to be led by serious people. I was recently at a dinner with a VC, Regulator, Market Maker, and prominent project where more was done to advance Cardano's relevance than a glad handing party of the usual faces.
@emurgo_io will support serious Marketing and Branding efforts.

There is a lot more I want to say but I want to call upon all DRep to vote "Yes" to the IOR proposal and for those who have abstained or voted "No" to reconsider.

Price has changed, therefore, the value & importance of the proposal has increased.

@CANMNT_Official Good luck @CANMNT_Official !!!

[108 @ikaran108]

@IOHK_Charles Thank you Charles!!!

@sou_danialves If you are aware of grant programs like this, it would be more constructive to help make them happen rather than respond with satirical tweets.
He founded Cardano and has a clear vision for it. He knows what he is doing, n, importantly, a large part of community trusts his vision

[108 @ikaran108]

@sou_danialves I disagree w/your characterization of Charles. Not seen him attack members unless they crossed clear ethical boundaries. Rather than placing blame on him, pls provide factual evidence and specific examples to support your statement. Otherwise, accusation appears unsubstantiated.

#Cardano fam, time to be pragmatic. I have cast my votes in support of @IOGroup proposals. Aside from the fact that I am in favor of these proposals on merit, IOG are a critical element of our ecosystem. We simply cannot afford to loose all the subject matter expertise and talent that resides within that organization. We are at an inflection point as a community. Responsible and logical decisions need to be made.

Let’s be real. There’s a nihilistic group that is loud with Cardano that would rather destroy the ecosystems promise than collaborate with @IOHK_Charles.

Time to mute and block the lunatic fringe…… $ADA

Leios is coming

[Superior @andreysuperior]

Most people see a street. He sees $300-600 per block.

A 24-year-old from Chengdu figured out that every hotel, every apartment, every commercial space within walking distance is an untapped asset. One nobody has packaged yet.

He straps a rig to his back, walks in, spends twenty minutes scanning the space, and leaves with a file that lets anyone on earth stand inside that room from their couch.

The client pastes a link on their booking page. Guests tour the property before they arrive. Cancellations drop. Reviews go up.

He gets paid $400 for the scan. $99 every month for hosting.

The technology: 3D Gaussian Splatting. Free on GitHub since 2023. The app: Luma AI. Also free. The page he delivers: built by Claude in ten minutes.

Total tool cost: $20/month.

Month one: $3,500. Month six: $18,000.

The streets haven't changed.

He just started charging for them.

@IOHK_Charles @TobiasIlskov Thaak you Charles!

[108 @ikaran108]

@NaVi_GaT0R @benohanlon @IOHK_Charles @bosconfts @Cryptofly777 @LucasMacchia2 No, I didn’t mean that you called it that. I meant that you brought up the phrase “whale was right” to support your argument, while completely overlooking the abusive behavior of the whale.

[108 @ikaran108]

@NaVi_GaT0R @benohanlon @IOHK_Charles @bosconfts @Cryptofly777 @LucasMacchia2 Navjit pointed out that “the whale was right,” but overlooked that the whale used abusive language, resorted to name-calling, and made personal attacks against Charles—all as part of a broader attempt to frame Charles as the villain. Ethic applies to you as well brother.

@midnightfdn @MidnightNtwrk Midnight the 4th generation blockchain is here.

The selective disclosure is on!!!

https://t.co/b0HdKrCIZ8

[Midnight Foundation @midnightfdn]

Midnight is live 🥳

Today marks the launch of the @MidnightNtwrk, a defining step forward in blockchain infrastructure and the realization of a fourth-generation architecture.

Rather than forcing a trade-off between transparency and privacy, Midnight allows both to coexist. Developers can build applications where user data remains private, while key conditions can still be proven on-chain, unlocking entirely new design space across financial products, identity systems, and decentralized applications.

Welcome to privacy by default, and disclosure by choice.

Read the full announcement, including details on the network’s phased rollout designed to ensure stability, security, and long-term resilience as the ecosystem expands: https://t.co/OTc7RRtVzq

Ethereum focuses on execution, Cardano focuses on validation.

Ethereum executes logic directly on-chain, making it strong for complex state changes and composability, but with structural downsides: unpredictable fees and state bloat.

Cardano determines transaction outcomes off-chain first and only validates on-chain. This makes fees predictable and enables parallel processing, though designing complex multi-party interactions has a steeper learning curve.

These two are approaching different parts of the market. I don't think any single chain will dominate everything. Different chains will carve out their own space through specialized approaches.

Chains competing with Ethereum by offering the same general-purpose execution environment will struggle. But chains filling gaps Ethereum structurally can't, like deterministic validation, predictable fees, and a design architecture enabling formal verification, those will be sustainable.

That's what makes Cardano special. It has a unique design philosophy and technical differentiation that other chains don't have.

With its eUTXO model, Nakamoto-style consensus algorithm, and liquid staking mechanism, Cardano has unique capabilities that no other chain offers. I think it will pioneer new territory that existing players simply can't reach.

Hundreds of wallets have been drained on EVM chains recently, likely tied to risks inherent in the approve based model. this is a class of risk that simply doesn’t exist on Cardano!!

If you’re an EVM user, you’ve probably gotten used to revoking approvals or checking tools like https://t.co/aOvuExpTaT after every major hack. That alone says a lot.

on EVM chains, tokens are issued and controlled through smart contracts, which means users must grant contracts permission to move their assets via approve. while convenient, this permission model has repeatedly been at the center of hacks and wallet drain incidents.

Cardano, by contrast, is built on the UTXO model, making this type of risk much harder to occur. there’s no concept of granting unlimited permissions to contracts, and every asset transfer is explicit and transaction-specific. Cardano tokens are native assets, not smart-contract-based, which significantly reduces the attack surface.

In short, smart contracts and tokens are structurally separated on Cardano. as a result, the kinds of issues that frequently occur in the Ethereum ecosystem are far less likely to exist there.
