As part of our ongoing efforts to streamline and focus the Minswap platform, we will be completely removing the LaunchBowl feature from the Minswap website, including LaunchBowl LBE V2.
For teams or developers interested in continuing to use the infrastructure, both the off-chain and on-chain components have been fully open-sourced:
• Off-chain SDK: https://t.co/dsW0rYbQlR
• On-chain LBE V2 contracts: https://t.co/3IcwuOba4U
This means anyone can self-host and operate their own version independently
We'd like to thank all projects, contributors, and community members who participated in LaunchBowl over the years 🙏
Thank you for your continued support.
Hydra v2.2.0 is out!
This release introduces Partial Fanout.
Until now, the number of UTxOs a Hydra head could hold was effectively capped by what fits in a single fanout transaction. With partial fanout, a head holding an arbitrarily large UTxO set can be closed out across multiple steps: each PartialFanoutTx distributes as many outputs as fit in one transaction, and a final FinalPartialFanoutTx burns the head tokens to complete the process. This removes the long-standing per-head UTxO ceiling.

Doing work!
Let’s change the narrative and get a game plan on GTM!
1) join this and UN open source for good
2) get Cardano listed as a dosgital public good
3) register an open source sustainability fund registered in US as a public charity status which will be the first of its kind for web3 and OS
4) align with EU open source strategy and provision on building open source businesses
5) utilize Draper And Chisntrap community to build Commercial Open source businesses
6) work with LFDT and open source summit to build new talent pipeline and actually GTm market Cardano as needed backend for many systems
This is only one way to get us in headlines and get some new blood and momentum in our ecosystem, boarding flight now ttyl
Proud to be part of the UNDP Blockchain Advisory Group. 🌐
Blockchain has a real role to play in sustainable development, from verifiable identity to transparent public systems, and this group is built to put that to work.
Big news: we've partnered with the Brazilian Olympic Committee (@timebrasil) to transform Olympic sport with public blockchain, IoT, and AI.
The three-year roadmap aims to position COB as the global benchmark in sports innovation.
The best part? It's all powered by Cardano. ⚡️
$ADA
Most people heard emotion.
I heard something else.
Leios testnet on June 23.
Bitcoin integration.
Midnight.
RealFi.
While the timeline argues,
infrastructure is still being built.
So today, I added more $ADA.
And staked it calmly.🩵

What matters long term is not short-term market sentiment, but whether an ecosystem continues to build meaningful infrastructure and attract real adoption.
Cardano today has:
Decentralized Governance operating at scale through CIP-1694 and on-chain voting
One of the strongest open-source communities in the industry, with contributors building across research, protocol development, tooling, and applications worldwide
Institutional Transparency anchored directly on-chain, where governance actions, treasury activity, and ecosystem operations are publicly verifiable
Growing DeFi initiatives including
Bifrost by Fluid Tokens
Pogun by IOG
Sundial Protocol
Charms
BTC Karma
Expanding RWA and digital identity infrastructure through projects like Veridian and tokenization initiatives across multiple regions
Global public/private sector collaborations spanning education, telecommunications, digital identity, and blockchain infrastructure
Examples of transparent on-chain activity already visible today include:
DRep registrations and governance actions
Treasury withdrawals and constitutional committee activity
Ecosystem and partner network activity
Native asset issuance and RWA directly on London Stock Exchange
20.000 farmers in India combining satellite data, identity, education and industry
Everything verifiable. Everything auditable. Built in public.
The work continues.
