Let’s fucking vote! New DRep Dispatch just dropped. Please share if you care. It's full of tools to make voting easy + save you hours. Don’t skip it—no vote counts as a no. Don’t wait until the last minute—give proposals time to react. This edition cuts the noise and shows you…

BREAKING NEWS: PRIVATE STABLECOIN IS COMING TO MIDNIGHT 🙀🙀🙀 @IOHK_Charles reveals that the @midnightfdn is kicking off a series of major partnerships, starting with a workshop in Argentina alongside Moneta to explore building a private stablecoin essentially a tokenized,…

This is how I responded. I don’t think they even read my letter. 🥺

As a DRep I am voting YES on the ₳1,300,000 @blockfrost_io proposal 😉 This decision stems from Blockfrost's critical role in simplifying blockchain access, having powered most of transactions at peak on Cardano,and the urgent need to decentralize it via the Icebreaker program.

What do you think?

Correct me if I'm wrong @Juno_stakepool @cardano_govtool but didn't Gov Tools API power Tempo and others? I think the problem is judging on UX rather the real value of the infra and heroic efforts to do something with very little resources. TLDR @Juno_stakepool deserve more…

Just voted YES on @InputOutputHK treasury request for ₳96,8mil 😎 This decision is rooted in IOE's unmatched expertise and experience. This vote will contribute to accelerate Cardano's roadmap, boost adoption, and reinforce its position as a secure, scalable platform ultimately…

Pipelining in Ouroboros beats sharding: it enables parallel transaction processing without splitting global state—efficiency meets consistency.

Unstaking ETH works like this: 🥵You have to signal to unstake to enter the Exit Queue. It takes at a minimum 25-32 minutes to exit the queue. Depending on how many validators want to exit this can take longer and can sometimes even be days or weeks. 🥶After getting through the…

This kind of scaling for Solana requires almost doubling the hardware requirements for validators and will make the Solana ledger grow even faster. Solana's ledger size is currently over 400TB and growing 80-100TB per year. After this change it's likely going to grow 130-160TB…

This is what made me exit both the nodes, do you remember? It’s slower than Trad-Fi for crying out loud 🗣️ Cardano liquid staking is far superior technology, instant unlock 🧠 #Facts

We need improved multi-signature support for Cardano Governance tools and wallets. Being a script-based DRep right now is a pain in the ass.

I just renewed my @IntersectMBO membership. Ready for another year of building and growing together! Cheers #Cardano

New Cardano DRep Double-Espresso Dispatch is out ☕️ It's a newsletter covering Cardano governance, DReps, new tools and more. Nice work @benohanlon 👏 Cexplorer 2.0 made it into this edition, thanks for featuring the DRep Withdrawal Leaderboard page 🫡 →…

IMO it's ridiculous to submit and force DReps to vote 39 TWGA at the same time (Just like thought in the off-chain voting in May). As we have NCL we cannot ignore each proposal budget psychologically affecting other budgets. Also this force them considerable time. I voted C on…

My DRep votes so far.

Of course, having videos is beneficial. However, the reality is that most developers haven't even reached the stage where they're watching those videos. Even if such content were created, developers won't engage with it unless they already have the intention or decision-making…

This perspective is nothing more than self-indulgence. I recognize that many people who gather information on YouTube are crypto beginners, which is entirely different from the purpose of the proposed offline event. Developers attend events for networking. Experiences and…
