Most Cardano dApps still speak their own language.
Every protocol has its own SDK, its own quirks, its own way of doing things. That works fine if you're only touching one of them. The moment you want something that spans multiple protocols, like intent-based swaps, it falls apart.
@txpipe_tools TX3 is trying to fix exactly that.
One consistent layer that lets developers talk to Minswap, Strike, or anything else the same way.
I sat down with @santicarmuega to go through how it actually works and what it unlocks.
What do you reckon?
Is a unified SDK layer the missing piece for proper intent-based stuff on Cardano, or are we still too early?

Leios is getting closer.
The first public SPO testnet remains on track for June 2026, and progress this week was significant:
• Treasury funding approved by the Cardano community with 88% support
• CIP-0164 update reduced Leios block certificates from ~8 kB to ~200 bytes — around 40× smaller
• The reference implementation was successfully rebased onto the upcoming Dijkstra era
• Piranha, a new adversarial testing tool, is now live for protocol attack simulation
A lot of deep engineering work is coming together behind the scenes and the first public testnet is getting closer!
Unicorn or bust.
Can’t speak for the the rest of the industry, but we’re in one of the best places as a protocol and community to take over and dominate the industry over the next couple of years.
We have a product with huge stickiness that’s getting better each day, multiple growth avenues, making a ton of profit for holders and liquidity providers, backed by our team which (hopefully) has proven to be one of the most competent in the world.
Team has been extremely responsible financially, holding reserves in USD, taking modest salaries, and now sitting on a DAO with the community worth 25M ADA.
Markets have been tough and they could get tougher. But we’ve positioned ourselves beautifully to keep building for years to come and remain aggressive.
Higher.
Three names. One unforgettable season 🤩
