Historically, Cardano ($ADA) has been somewhat isolated from the rest of the crypto universe. If you want to swap native BTC or ETH for ADA, you usually had to go through a CEX or rely on bridges that issue wrapped tokens.
🚀Maya Protocol integrating Cardano actually means making it a fully interoperable player in the broader DeFi space without compromising on decentralization or self-custody.
New for @Maya_Protocol and @THORChain users: seamlessly add and manage liquidity pool (LP) positions

@jpthor Yeah, I have same setup and it's the best so far. Specially if you bridge other chat apps then you have easy cross-communication with information channels with your agents
🍫 Chocolate Day = The birth of $CACAO. Here is a look back at the Liquidity Auction that made it happen:
What it was & how it worked ⚙️
- Instead of a traditional sale, we ran a 21-day permissionless Liquidity Auction. Anyone could contribute assets ($BTC, $ETH, $USDC, $RUNE).
- After the auction closed, 90% of $CACAO was distributed proportionally to those participants, instantly pairing with their assets to make them our first-ever Liquidity Providers.
Why we did it 🤝
- We bypassed complex, exclusive IDOs because we believe in our motto: a multichain liquidity protocol should be in the hands of the community from Day 1.
Why it’s important 🛡️
- It set a new standard for fairness in DeFi. It meant total transparency, zero whitelists, no prohibitive minimums, and reduced volatility through equal information.
- Everyone had the exact same opportunity to get involved.
Want the full breakdown of the economics and philosophy behind it? 👇

🎂3 years ago, founders @AaluxxMyth and @itzamnadev went into builder mode to create the genesis block of what today connects a tribe across chains.
Ecosystems once siloed now move together.
Let’s celebrate 3 years of multichain!! 🥳
How to swap native $BTC → shielded $ZEC in a few easy steps 🔒
You can swap using @asgardex, @vultisig, @leodexio, or @EdgeWallet, then shield your ZEC with @zodl_app.
Privacy made simple 😉
Cardano daemon for stagenet fully synced. Stagenet getting closer @Cardano
Once on stagenet, we'll do thorough testing before mainnet release on @Maya_Protocol
What are the devs building on Maya this week?
1️⃣ Merge to develop: they have integrated the Cardano state machine into the core protocol.
2️⃣ Daemon syncing: Rn our DevOps stagenet nodes are "learning" the Cardano history, syncing the daemon to stay perfectly in line with the chain.
I packaged up the "autoresearch" project into a new self-contained minimal repo if people would like to play over the weekend. It's basically nanochat LLM training core stripped down to a single-GPU, one file version of ~630 lines of code, then:
- the human iterates on the prompt (.md)
- the AI agent iterates on the training code (.py)
The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement. In the image, every dot is a complete LLM training run that lasts exactly 5 minutes. The agent works in an autonomous loop on a git feature branch and accumulates git commits to the training script as it finds better settings (of lower validation loss by the end) of the neural network architecture, the optimizer, all the hyperparameters, etc. You can imagine comparing the research progress of different prompts, different agents, etc.

Part code, part sci-fi, and a pinch of psychosis :)
Seed-phrase import is now live on Vultisig!
Import your old seedphrase wallets and convert them to multi-modal, multi-signature, and secure MPC wallets with just a few clicks!
It's time to throw away that old wallet.
🛡 We Expanded What Shielded @Zcash can do.
For a long time, shielded #ZEC had limited cross chain utility.
We changed that.
Maya now supports native swaps directly to and from shielded addresses. We’ve submitted a retroactive proposal to Zcash.
If this kind of privacy infrastructure matters to you, we’d love to see the tribe back it.

Wait… We’re about to turn 3? 🤯
Three years of building. Three years of choosing native over shortcuts. Three years of doing it the hard way.
And lately? It’s been unreal. 🚀
🛡️ Zcash integrated
🔒 Shielded swaps moving toward full in & out
🧬 EDDSA unlocking what’s next
🌊 Cardano on deck
🏗️ Vault architecture scaling quietly
⚡ Native swaps.
Always. But here’s the real part… None of this happens without the community that stayed.
The ones who asked questions. Tested. Built.
Challenged us. Supported us.
Three years later and we’re not slowing down.
If you’ve been here since year one… you know.🍫
🛡️ And if you just got here? You’re early.
