Coding with AI on Cardano just got easier.
Cardano Academy’s latest course teaches the full loop: tell an AI agent what you want, audit what it writes, prove it works with a real transaction on preprod.
Build with agents. Ship on Cardano.

The Musashi Dojo enters its Fire phase.
We're raising the load on the Leios testnet step by step, testing the protocol and hardening the code to production grade at each level.
By the end, we'll know how far Leios can go and how to tune it for mainnet.

The .ada top-level domain application is moving forward in ICANN's first new gTLD round since 2012. ICANN will next evaluate its technical compliance and the Cardano Foundation's financial and operational readiness to run it. The bid follows a Cardano governance action that passed with about 75% support. Delegations in this round are expected between 2028 and 2030, depending on each application's progress.

This is a big one.
Dingo, our Go based Cardano node implementation, has now forged Cardano mainnet blocks.
Client diversity makes critical infra more resilient. Multiple implementations, languages and teams make critical networks stronger.
Proud of the team and our bold SPO.
Dingo has crossed the Rubicon. @Star_Forge_Pool has forged a mainnet block with a Dingo block producer.
✅ Preview
✅ Preprod
✅ Musashi
✅ Prime Testnet

🚀 RealFi is coming to Cardano Mainnet on 1 October.
Pioneer Season: 3,600+ users and 40,000+ quest actions, giving the team real usage and feedback before launch.
Another Cardano DeFi launch to watch.
Testing @realfi_co before Mainnet?
THIS IS NOT A PAID PROMOTION

We’re excited to share a major update with our community.
@realfi_co is coming to Cardano Mainnet on October 1st.
That’s right – get ready, make some noise.
Thanks to you all, we have a great base to build on. We got here because of you.
To date, more than 3,600 users, completing over 40,000 quest actions, took part in the Pioneer Season* – with the public Testnet giving us exactly what a testnet should: Real usage, real comments, and a clear list of what to work on before launch. Thank you.
Importantly, the Pioneer Season will continue until Mainnet; this decision is deliberate and not the result of any major issue or setback: We’re taking the additional time to assess what we’ve learned, incorporate community feedback, and ensure our full-blown launch receives the attention, preparation, and polish it deserves.
Our goal is simple: To make the transition to Mainnet as strong, smooth, and successful as possible.
We will share further launch week details, including what changes for our Pioneers at Mainnet, as October approaches.
We are only getting started,
The RealFi Team

Your ADA is sitting on Binance or Coinbase... but is it actually yours? 🔑
Not quite — the exchange holds the keys, which means it can move, freeze, or control your funds. Here's what "not your keys, not your coins” really means.

If you are a Cardano stake pool operator and don't want to participate in governance, please follow the below guide to switch your pools to auto-abstain.
Without this, your non-vote will automatically count as an implicit NO.

😬 Day 11 was the day everyone at @draper_u had been stressing about.
Pitching our startups in front of @TimDraper.
The tension beforehand was crazy, but everyone in the Genesis cohort absolutely delivered. All that preparation paid off.
Now the pitches go live Friday.
For the Cardano community, I think this is important viewing. Treasury funding helped make this program happen, so this is where you get to see what we're building and what came from that investment.
Now… back to building. Cardano will win $ADA
