We're hosting the first edition of "AI on Cardano" next Tuesday.
A monthly open forum for everyone interested in making AI on Cardano a reality.
We'll discuss standards, products, ideas and more.
Everyone is welcome to join. I'm looking forward to seeing you there!
🛡 Recovery Process Update
Your assets remain safe. Our team's full focus is on recovery. Here is where things stand today:
How do I check if my wallet is affected?
The asset recovery wallet checker is now live: https://t.co/EGLOj6iKDl
This is the only official checker, hosted on our https://t.co/C5s1yFPlq1 domain and shared only through @secondfiapp / @secondfi_jp. It is prepared on a best-efforts basis. It will never ask you to sign a transaction. Any tool that does is a scam.
This is phase one. In phase two, the checker will show whether your wallet has been affected, alongside an air-gapped transfer option to move assets securely.
I am not affected, what are my options?
If you wish to migrate, we recommend moving your assets to a newly created wallet using a hardware wallet only. We will release clear, step-by-step migration instructions to guide you through this.
I am affected, what do I do?
We are working on an onchain recovery tool. For now, submit a ticket at https://t.co/bKfl8SK9D2 and keep your app and seed phrase safe. Recovery instructions will only be released once the Intersect Security Council has completed its review.
How do I recover my assets?
Our teams are working with the smartest minds in Cardano, who have dropped everything to work on this incident, to develop an onchain claims portal. Which is now in preview mode and will be released soon.
Understanding what happened
Several auditors and independent experts are analysing onchain activity and validating our findings. Reports are coming, and we intend to share relevant reports once finalised. We cannot share findings before then, as doing so may cause further issues.
How do I make a claim?
If you want to make a claim, submit your ticket at https://t.co/bKfl8SK9D2.
Please remember:
DO
- Keep the SecondFi app installed
- Keep your seed phrase safe
- Use only https://t.co/EGLOj6iKDl to check your wallet
- Submit a ticket at https://t.co/bKfl8SK9D2
DON'T
- Delete the SecondFi app
- Share private keys, recovery phrases, or wallet credentials with anyone
- Trust any checker, link, or account outside our official channels
- Act on messages telling you to move assets or submit wallet information
SecondFi will NEVER request private keys, recovery phrases, or wallet credentials. No recovery actions requiring user participation have begun. @secondfiapp / @secondfi_jp remains the official channel for all updates.
NEWS: Cardano's Leios testnet is divided into 5 stages.
Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Void.
The Void phase is when Leios will be Mainnet ready, it's targeted for November 2026.
Good times ahead for Cardano.
For the last months we've been working on Hydra Masumi with the goal to scale Masumi up to Millions and eventually Billions of Agent transactions.
We support the IOG Hydra Treasury Withdrawal in hopes that they receive the funding necessary to continue building Hydra.
Daedalus: Cardano’s only full node desktop wallet. Your keys. Your node. Trustless.
SE7EN Labs has submitted a treasury proposal to maintain and improve Daedalus through 2027 while continuing collaboration with IO.
Self sovereign security is not something you bolt on later. It is foundational.
Real security. Openly verifiable. Built for Cardano.
NEWS: RealFi Phase 1 testnet will go live on Cardano July 6.
The product is targeting the problem that billions in stablecoins sit idle, earning nothing.
They wants that money put to work in real-world lending instead.
RealFi is a new product by Input Output Group.
It now appears this was a white hat intervention by SecondFi, with around 129.27 million ADA retained to prevent further losses.
My tracing analysis was originally based on the assumption that this was the attacker wallet. That was because funds were actively being moved from affected wallets, which looked like live draining behaviour at the time.
If this was an emergency intervention address, that explains a lot of the behaviour we were seeing on chain.
A large part of the analysis and visualisation I built was therefore mapping this intervention rather than the final attacker flow. I still think the tooling and visual view have value, because they show how the movement of funds looked in real time and help explain why the initial conclusion was reasonable based on available evidence.
I welcome this development and hope every impacted individual is reimbursed properly and transparently.

THE POWER OF THE COMMUNITY
https://t.co/u5Hjpdd7M1 proposal went through thank to the Cardano community.
Members we met along the way, and many we never met, showed up for this proposal. It brought incredible energy and reminded us all of the reason we joined Cardano in the first place.
The community reviewed the proposal, asked hard questions, pushed back on the numbers, and demanded clarity. We appreciate every piece of feedback and every concern raised, it makes us better.
There are many people to thank. Every action counted. Every message reposted, every like, every rationale written, every space that gave us a platform, every hard question asked, every criticism offered. All of it mattered. We are grateful to each and every one of you.
This was more than great teamwork. This was community work.
And with that comes responsibility, ours. The responsibility to keep delivering. To bring real value back to the chain and to the people who backed us. To prove on the main stage that Cardano can lead in real-world adoption and help disrupt the industries that need disrupting.
We have already come a long way. But this is just the beginning.
Let's make things happen.
https://t.co/u5Hjpdd7M1
p.s. I took this picture last year in the west of France (probably around 5am) - feeling grateful
GM, CARDANO!
I was waiting for a miracle, but the true miracle is this incredible community right here.
The https://t.co/JJObGr7puR Treasury Proposal has officially PASSED!
We are absolutely thrilled and deeply humbled by this outcome. A massive, heartfelt THANK YOU to every single one of you. Whether you voted YES, delegated your ADA, rallied support, or simply took the time to read our proposal and provide your valuable feedback and made this happen. Your engagement is what makes Cardano's decentralized governance so powerful.
To our extraordinary network of partners, thank you for standing with us, sharing this ambitious vision, and bringing your world-class expertise to the table.
We are celebrating, but we know that the real work starts right now. You placed your trust and your voting power in us, and we fully intend to honor it.
We are committed to executing this vision, bringing massive real-world utility on-chain, and making every single one of you proud. We will not let you down.
Thank you, Cardano. Now, let’s get to work!
Good Day to the Cardano Community!
This is a PSA that ANVIL pool is running bone dry!
Unfortunately, at 448,773 ADA we are rarely producing blocks these days. We have over 1000 delegators but the ADA in our pool is just simply not enough to consistently produce blocks.
Any and all support would be greatly appreciated. This pool directly supports Anvil and our operations. It also helps to secure Cardano.
We reallllly do not want to close down our stake pool, but seeing all the other over saturated, retired, or MPO still have massive delegations is making it hard to justify continued operations.
Please consider supporting us by delegating to our pool!!! Thank you all!
⚠️ SecondFi (formerly Yoroi) Security Incident
Although the official statement claims the impact was limited and the issue has been resolved, transfers to the thief's wallet are still ongoing.
I have compiled a guide on the procedure—restoring the wallet elsewhere, creating a new wallet, and moving all funds to safety—including steps to verify the official URL and protect against scams 👇
*Please make sure to verify the wallet URL yourself as well.

Dear @IOHK_Charles ,
The reason you created Cardano has been my north star for almost six years. Following your vision to bank the unbanked, I joined the ecosystem like many others driven by that same purpose.
https://t.co/u5Hjpdd7M1 is how we deliver on that vision now, at scale. We're tapping into partner networks that aims to reach 100 million farmers, the perfect foundation for a blockchain trust layer that connects to many business applications (i.e. good synergies with Realfi).
Here's a short 3-minute video: https://t.co/uxiMc9ZU7w
From a business perspective, there are real opportunities for Cardano to tap into a huge business network of leading brands. As you said in one of your recent videos, "we lost the narrative." 5am could be part of bringing it back.
The community support has been incredible - here are few examples: https://t.co/z5uS4BiyNK)
We need a final push to get the proposal across the line. The deadline is today (Tuesday, 10pm UTC).
Infra is essential, but what the market shows us is that it not enough. 5am is part of the solution.
Would greatly appreciate your public support.
Yoram

Cardano DeFi is ready for prime time.
Today we’re introducing PRIME:
a 12-month AlphaGrowth-run program to help Cardano attract liquidity, deepen DeFi usage, and become a first-class destination for capital.
For the Dreps that did not yet vote,
or for the ones that voted NO.

Tag your Drep
DM is open for any needed info & clarifications
@Elkconnect_web3
At Midnight's next roadmap stage, Cardano stake pools will be able to become Midnight validators too.
$ADA holders delegated to pools running Midnight infrastructure will earn both $ADA and $NIGHT as staking rewards.
We as an SPO will also be validating Midnight 🫡
I think things are going to escalate in Cardano soon.
My advice is simple. Look closely at people’s true intentions. Look at who consistently turns up, who contributes without needing something in return, and who has shown they genuinely care about Cardano through both their history and their present actions.
That matters now more than ever.
It is a huge shame, because in my opinion our focus should be on adoption, usage, builders, businesses, and removing the barriers that are slowing Cardano down. That is where the long term value is created, not fuelling further drama because people believe they are always right.
Even though this budget cycle is almost over, delegating to a DRep really still matters. You need somebody who represents your values, understands the trade offs, and is willing to protect the interests of ADA holders when pressure increases. I'm not saying that's me, but I urge people right now, with urgency to consider their current and future delegation. We must retain investor confidence and trust.
I hope I am wrong, but let’s watch this play out.
Control and power belong with ADA holders.
Enough with governance discussions, we should be focusing on growing Cardano, because if we don't soon, then we have a problem.
