El pasado 9 de mayo tuve el honor de dar una exposición sobre un desafío crucial para el ecosistema: cómo el dilema de la transparencia en Web3 dio origen a @MidnightNtwrk, la blockchain de cuarta generación.
Destaqué un concepto clave: la privacidad racional. El mercado institucional y corporativo necesita operar bajo reglas claras, y este enfoque de la tecnología blockchain abre la puerta a aplicaciones listas para compliance, integrando dinero e identidad digital de forma nativa. Es un puente entre la regulación del mundo real y los beneficios de la descentralización, permitiendo operar sin exponer datos sensibles.
Espacios para proyectar el futuro de la tecnología blockchain en Argentina no surgen de la nada; son el resultado del empuje de personas comprometidas con el desarrollo tecnológico. Quiero destacar el enorme trabajo de @LucasMacchia2 y @MauroAndreoliA de @IOGroup Buenos Aires junto a la @muyamarillotodo de la comunidad de @wipclubBsAs .
¡Muchas gracias a todos los que se acercaron y compartieron sus preguntas!
¿Vieron que @lace_io Mobile ya se encuentra disponible en App Store y Google Play?
El próximo 17 de junio se realizará un Focus Group de Lace Mobile junto a @alejandromr y el equipo de ingeniería, con el objetivo de escuchar feedback directo de usuarios, desarrolladores y miembros de la comunidad.
La sesión estará enfocada en entender cómo se usa la wallet, qué funcionalidades son más importantes, con qué dApps interactúan los usuarios y qué mejoras podrían tener mayor impacto en la experiencia final.
¡Los esperamos en las oficinas de @IOGroup Buenos Aires!

Building with AI tools as a blockchain developer often means fighting hallucinations, broken code, and documentation gaps.
✨ Midnight Expert takes a different approach.
Built for Midnight developers, Midnight Expert is a suite of AI skills for Claude that understands Compact, the SDK, local devnets, testing workflows, and Midnight development patterns.
Instead of relying on confident guesses, it can verify outputs by actually compiling, running, type-checking, and inspecting code.

The next evolution of Hermes Agent is here!
Introducing Hermes Desktop: everything you love about Hermes, now native on your machine.
First demoed in Jensen's GTC keynote, it's now in public preview.
is Hermes Agent ready for enterprises?
NVIDIA built OpenShell, a runtime that wraps AI agents in the security IT teams need before they let anything touch sensitive systems. it plugs directly into Microsoft's enterprise security stack. Hermes Agent now runs inside it.
what this changes for marketers building with agents:
> the marketing agents you've been prototyping can now go to Fortune 500 clients
> the security review that used to kill the deal is handled at the runtime layer
> the same Hermes setup that runs on your laptop can run inside any enterprise IT environment
> you do not have to rebuild your workflow for each client's compliance requirements
I deploy vertical marketing agents for growth teams and the biggest blocker on enterprise work has always been "your AI stack is amazing but our IT won't let us touch it."
that's the wall coming down.
for AI marketing infra builders, this opens enterprise marketing budgets. for in-house teams at enterprises, it's the green light to deploy Hermes agents.
Two Argentinian friends killed the entire game engine industry.
It's called Godot. You build full 2D and 3D games for free, ship them anywhere, and keep 100% of every dollar you ever make.
Here's how it works.
Godot is the engine. Clean editor. Runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. You install it once and it does everything Unity and Unreal do without a single fee attached.
The whole thing is built on a node and scene system. Every part of your game is a node. You stack them, nest them, reuse them. One mental model for the entire engine instead of fighting twelve different systems.
→ No license fee
→ No royalty on your revenue
→ No per-install charge
→ Exports to desktop, mobile, web, and consoles
→ GDScript, C#, and C++ all supported
Unity cannot claw back a cut of your game. There is no contract. No revenue threshold. No surprise invoice when you blow up.
The entire game engine industry is built on one assumption. That you will hand over a slice of everything you earn rather than use the free thing that already does the job.
That assumption died in Buenos Aires.

Most developers don't care about UTxOs, eUTxOs, validators, reference inputs, or any other Cardano primitive.
They care about solving business problems.
Every project we've shown Tx3 to agrees on one thing:
making Cardano protocols feel like consuming a normal API is probably one of the fastest paths to adoption.
🚨HUGE: SWIFT confirms over 50 major banks will implement CRYPTO rails for cross-border payments.
Bank of America, JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, Bank of China and SBI are among the banks backing the initiative, with over 25 set to begin processing payments by June.
Swift handles over $150 TRILLION annually.
Lace is now the official wallet of the UZH Blockchain Center.
Students in @uzh_blockchain's "Deep Dive into Blockchain" program at the University of Zurich will use @lace_io to learn how Cardano works, by actually using it.
The course goes deep: distributed systems, consensus, the foundational papers, the economics and law around them. A core part is learning to run a node in proof of stake.
They do it on UZHCARDANO, the university's own Cardano-based testnet. The integrations are live, and Lace is the wallet they use throughout. When they finish, they can take it to mainnet and bring new users and real activity with them.
New builders, learning on Cardano.
Extremely proud of this collaboration! 🎓🟣
Lace Wallet becomes the official wallet of the University of Zurich, helping onboard new users while strengthening academic engagement with blockchain technology.
Every ecosystem needs its first hundreds of users before reaching thousands, and eventually millions. This collaboration is a reflection of that journey.
This collaboration further connects academia with real-world blockchain infrastructure, providing students and researchers with direct access to the tools and technologies shaping the future of the industry.
As a direct outcome of an event hosted at our Buenos Aires office, this partnership emerged as a natural and logical connection, deeply aligned with the academic DNA of our network, as well as that of IOG and IO Research.
I would like to thank Charles Hoskinson (@IOHK_Charles) and J.J. Siler (@jj_siler) for their trust in the Buenos Aires team.
I would also like to thank Alejandro (@alejandromr), Head of Engineering for Lace Mobile, whose team made the integrations possible, and Dr. Claudio Tessone, Director of the UZH Blockchain Center and Professor at the University of Zurich, whose support and vision helped make this agreement a reality (@uzh_blockchain).
This is another example of how academia, research, and technology can come together to create meaningful adoption and long-term impact.
This is a really interesting idea. What do you guys think? Cardano Summit Globally on https://t.co/N2gfZpbmVR? We could treat it like the world's fair and build lots of special zones for each Dapp and project
