The number of active DReps currently ranges between 100 and 130. Two proposals have a deadline this weekend. I know many DReps tend to vote on the final day, yet I do not expect a significant surge of interest this time around. There is almost no discussion taking place regarding these proposals, not even on DrepTalk. I believe that if a major proposal requesting tens of millions of ADA were submitted, DReps might actually show up. It seems they show little interest in voting on smaller proposals. Several DReps have recently retired. Instead of "power to the edges," power is becoming centralized in the hands of the top DReps. It appears that only the major players see value in voting. Many SPOs have gone out of business because, for years, no one addressed the issues surrounding multi-pool operators or pushed for parameter changes. I perceive a similar lack of interest in resolving governance issues. From my position, I can identify the problem, but unfortunately, I cannot solve it. In any case, I want to assure you that I remain an active DRep.

Diffusion Staking Basket users were earning complementary NIGHT tokens on top of their cardano:native staking rewards. We allocated 200k NIGHT from our own resources for this campaign, that started in 2025. With 240k NIGHT distributed over the last 10 months, this campaign has now ended.

Sad to see Icebreakers wind down. For a small single pool, that programme was more than an API side-gig. It was a real way to put a node to work for the chain: wallets, DEXs, marketplaces, the tools people actually use. Blockfrost opened that up to operators who would never have been in the room otherwise, and a lot of us smaller pools felt that. It also mattered as a principle. Cardano’s pitch is that the network should not depend on a handful of companies. A community of operators serving live traffic was one of the clearer proofs of that. Losing it is a step back, even if the decision to close it cleanly is an honest one. Grateful to @blockfrost_io for building it, and to the other Icebreakers who kept it running. Hope something in that spirit comes back. much πŸ’™πŸ§Š!

Now live: a parameter update to lower minPoolCost from and complete planned increase in Plutus memory limits. The proposal aims to ease pressure on smaller stake pools & reduce friction for developers. Ratification requires support from both DReps (67%) and SPOs (51%). To help informed decision making please read our blog: intersectmbo.org/news/loweri…

EMURGO & Yoroi DRep Update: Upcoming Changes to Our DReps As we continue to support affected users of the @secondfiapp security incident and make further progress towards the recovery phase, we want to give notice of two governance decisions: our immediate resignation from the @IntersectMBO board and our intention to de-register our DRep role in Cardano governance in due course. Both decisions reflect our focus on directing our full attention and resources toward the recovery effort and ensuring affected users are properly supported through this process. We recognize that our seat on the Intersect board and our DRep role each represent meaningful responsibilities within the Cardano governance ecosystem and we do not take the decision to step back from either lightly. When you migrate your wallet, it will be automatically undelegated from both your stake pool and your DRep. You will then be free to choose a new DRep that best represents you. We will share full guidance, including timing, as the migration tool launches.

The 5am.earth proposal expires tomorrow. Despite a big community push on X recently it still falls short of passing. Among big retiring DReps recently - Peyton voted YES but retired his DRep before the vote concluded, and Linda has voted NO but has expressed an intention to retire her DRep shortly. This accounts for nearly 100M ada in voting power. IF you would like to see this proposal pass, please move to an active DRep that has voted YES before vote close on June 23, 2026 at 21:44 UTC. adastat.net/governances/aaa6…

RCADA: professionally disagreeing with 83% of proposals since 2024. πŸ˜… You’re welcome for the free signal service. If I vote Yesβ€¦βœ… just know the proposal is actually good. Rare, but it happens.

When times are rough, it's always good to refocus on higher yield! After the successful governance vote, the Diffusion Staking Basket will optimise for higher staking yield, using single SPOs! Currently offering a combined ADA + NIGHT annual staking yield of 4%! πŸ”₯

@jasonappleton have you seen the Incentives ballot on Ekklesia? It's a vote for dReps and SPOs to change Incentives through 3 proposed CIPs. If you have questions on the CIPs there is more resources here incentives.solutions/quick-l… Or I'm sure @Cerkoryn Or myself can answer questions you have. Thanks! app.ekklesia.vote/ballots/69…

πŸ€” Did you know our Incentives Working Group has accomplished all this in about a year without any funding? -2 CPSs -8 CIPs -2 PCPs, one of which was finally approved by the parameter committee. (Reduce pool min fee to 75 ADA and K to be discussed this week.) -1 whitepaper -2 tools for modeling incentives (spo-incentives.vercel.app/ and earncoinpool.com/CIP-163.htm…) -An update to the RSS Simulation engine at the University of Edinburgh Blockchain Technology Lab. -An Ekklesia ballot to let the community vote on everything. app.ekklesia.vote/ballots/69… Show our members some love ❀️ @rabbitholepools @Cerkoryn @BBHMM_Stake @Star_Forge_Pool @earncoinpool
