After having received the first slopfest submission (which surely was well intentioned, but is pretty useless), Id again like to raise attention to this.
An AMAZING opportunity to get paid for doing interesting work on Cardano.
(just to be clear, using AI is obv perfectly fine, but we dont need a meat proxy to paste the questions we defined into a harness)
The Parameter Committee is running the first of its kind Public RFP (Request for Proposal) for Cardano Research!
...and YOU can apply, including setting your own price.
We are looking for a researcher (team) who can answer the question on HOW LOW we can go on the utxoCostPerByte (minUTXO) parameter under current and planned protocol rules.
Expected deliverables for the work:
- An assessment of the lowest technically and economically sustainable utxoCostPerByte value.
- Analysis of the risks, trade-offs, and limitations associated with reducing the parameter, including economic and/or security concerns where relevant.
- Analysis of the impact of not reducing the parameter.
- Evidence-based recommendations, including potential safeguards or mitigation measures.
Expected content of the application:
- Description of your research approach and methodology.
- Your experience.
- Your estimated time of completion.
- Fixed-price quotation in ada.
Apply here: tinyurl.com/utxoCPB-RFP
Deadline: 4th of November
Ask questions here, in my DMs, or on the Forum post for the RFP: forum.cardano.org/t/public-r…
Introducing the Cardano Research Exchange #1
The Cardano Research Exchange is a series of live, interactive sessions that brings research happening across the Cardano ecosystem into the spotlight.
The aim is to make ongoing research more visible, give researchers a platform to share their work, and create opportunities for the community to contribute feedback and help shape what gets explored next.
The series welcomes research initiatives from across the ecosystem, including other research teams. Researchers can share ongoing work, discuss their findings, and gather input from the community, while participants get a better understanding of the research taking place across Cardano and the opportunity to contribute their own perspectives.
In this first episode, led by @manv_sc and Juan Ignacio Beccuti Vázquez, we take a high-level look at the @Cardano_CF's research initiatives.
This session serves as part 1 of a 3-part series, with the following two sessions taking a closer look at research related to "The Effect of Parameter Changes on SPO and Delegator Incentives."
Topics covered in Episode #1:
00:01 - Introduction to the Cardano Research Exchange
03:57 - Core Research Focus Areas
05:54 - Overview of Research Streams & Publications
08:35 - Ongoing Research Initiatives
13:22 - Upcoming Sessions: Parameter Changes, Incentives & Monetary Policy
New week, new sessions. Here’s what’s happening across the Cardano ecosystem this week 👇

This week, the focus is on making CIPs work for the people using them. Existing tokens, real-world NFT data and node software details are all on the table in the latest snapshot from @COSDpool (Robert Phair). 🧵
In case you missed it, the recent Developer Spotlight is with @maxalexweber, creator of @ODATANO_V4.
Coming from a background in SAP development, Max became curious about decentralized systems and started asking how Cardano could fit into the enterprise world. His answer is ODATANO, which lets SAP developers work with Cardano through OData, a standard they already know, so much of the blockchain complexity disappears.
He also recorded a short message, walking you through his journey from SAP into Cardano and how it led to the creation of ODATANO.
See below post for more details, and the link to the Developer Spotlight interview.🧵
In the latest Developer Spotlight, Maximilian Weber (@maxalexweber), Founder and Core Developer of ODATANO, shares how his background in SAP development and decentralized systems led him to explore how Cardano could fit into the enterprise world.
Learn how ODATANO makes Cardano accessible through OData, helping SAP developers interact with blockchain infrastructure using standards they already know.
Max also takes us through projects like TRACE and QUANTIX, showing how Cardano can support supply chains, procurement, and enterprise data, while sharing what still needs to happen for broader enterprise adoption.

This is a time to celebrate, not an opportunity to divide.
Truth be told: 20 projects were selected after signing up.
Node Diversity Celebration Day in Singapore was a success!
Earlier today at 01:00 UTC, the teams behind Cardano's independent node implementations came together for three hours of updates and conversation. A few impressions below.
Thank you to everyone who joined in person and online. 🇸🇬

Cardano Node Diversity Celebration Day!
This workshop brings together representatives from across the Cardano node ecosystem for three hours of discussions, progress updates and timelines, giving the community a look at the range of work happening around independent node implementations.
The programme looks at how node diversity can strengthen decentralization, security and resilience, alongside updates from node implementers and a look at the next phase of Cardano’s diversity efforts.

TOKEN2049 Singapore kicks off this week, and @Cardano has several things happening around the event.
If you’re following Cardano from home like me, here’s a quick rundown of some of the events to watch 👇

Roundtable Talk: Smart Contract Security - Why One Check Is No Longer Enough
See below post for more details, and the Link to join👇
xitter.cf/Cardano/status/2103524…
Join us Monday, September 28 at 15:00 UTC for Roundtable Talk: Smart Contract Security - Why One Check Is No Longer Enough
The blockchain industry has seen a rise in smart contract exploits. AI models have not only become smarter and more advanced, but they can now analyze code, find vulnerabilities, and generate exploit code.
With this vastly changing landscape, how should projects rethink security when Ai can find and exploit flaws in minutes? And what does this mean for trust in the ecosystem?
This Roundtable brings together experienced auditors to discuss continuous AI-driven monitoring, how auditing firms are adapting their business models, and practical steps DApp developers can take to protect their code and strengthen user trust.
Confirmed speakers:
- Alexander Vershilov - Senior security researcher @Tweag
- @santicarmuega- CEO, @txpipe_tools
- @phil_uplc - CEO, @AnastasiaLabs
- Benjamin Hart - CTO & Technical Architect, @MLabs10
Additional speakers pending confirmation.

Nine years ago today, Cardano minted its first block.
A global community has been building this blockchain ever since.
Some are in this video, and many more are reading this.
This celebration is yours.
Happy 9th birthday, Cardano.
