Cardano's treasury is voting on 9.6M ADA (about $1.67M) for a police evidence system. First user: an Indian state government.
Right now it's failing:
DReps: 27.59% yes, needs 67%
Constitutional Committee: 3 of 7 yes, needs 5
Voting closes Nov 20. #Cardano
cardano-node 11.2.1 dropped today. Still a pre-release, still not recommended for mainnet.
What's new: lower memory use around snapshots, and the on-disk LSM backend is confirmed for block production (8GB+ RAM).
SPOs: test first, then wait for the mainnet tag. #Cardano

Hoskinson says Cardano's smart contracts are "far more secure pound for pound" than the rest.
2026 hacks on DefiLlama, exchanges excluded:
Ethereum: 113, $576M
Cardano: 4, $12.4M
Fewer, yes. Not zero: a bridge validator bug cost Wanchain $10M on Cardano. #Cardano

Binance just warned iPhone users: an iOS bug called worse_query lets a malicious app read other apps' files, which can include seed phrases.
ADA in a mobile wallet? Delete sideloaded apps, update iOS, keep the big bag on a hardware wallet.
No thefts reported so far. #Cardano

A vulnerability (worse_query) affecting iOS 26.7.1, 27.0.1, and 27.2 allows malicious apps to read local files from other apps, putting seed phrases, private keys, and login credentials at risk across the entire ecosystem. This is an iOS-level issue, not unique to Binance.
Immediate Action Required:
- Delete any apps installed from untrusted sources (such as sideloaded or manually signed IPAs).
- Update iOS and all apps to the latest official versions.
- If you suspect a breach, transfer funds to a new wallet created on a clean device and reset all active login sessions.
Never install unauthorized packages, and keep your software up to date.

NYSE picked Avalanche tech to settle tokenized stocks. AVAX ran from $8.03 to $8.98 in 4 hours (+11.9%).
Now it's $8.28. Most of the pump is gone, and it's a private NYSE chain anyway.
ADA holders hoping for one Wall Street headline: it won't fix things alone. #Cardano

The viral "57% of ADA is staked" stat holds up, but only against circulating supply.
Epoch 666 active stake: 21.33B ADA
• 57.9% of circulating (36.83B)
• 54.7% of all ADA in existence (38.98B)
• 47.4% of the 45B max
And none of it is locked. It can move any time. #Cardano

The Cardano Foundation's 2027 events ask is $4,999,155 for 12 conferences, priced at ADA = $0.20.
ADA is $0.178 tonight.
Same dollars now cost the treasury 28.1M ADA instead of 25.0M. That's 3.1M ADA extra.
Should treasury asks be fixed in ADA or in dollars? #Cardano

Franklin Templeton's crypto ETF holds 397,269 ADA.
That's $73,810, or 0.46% of the fund. DOGE gets 0.73%. BTC gets 78.54%.
And the fund doesn't stake, so that ADA earns no rewards.
So yes, ADA made it into a TradFi ETF. As a rounding error. #Cardano

Cosmos is giving IBC to the Linux Foundation. The Cardano Foundation says it is one of the sponsors, next to Google Cloud and people from Wells Fargo.
IBC has moved $50B+ since 2021.
Cardano's own IBC bridge? Still marked "pre-production" on CF's GitHub.
Time to ship it? $ADA

No US spot $ADA ETF. Why?
Cardano Foundation's chief legal officer: "you need a liquid futures market. And that was something that Cardano didn't get until this year."
CME ADA futures went live Feb 9. Grayscale pulled its filing Aug 7, no reason given.
No refiling date yet.

That's the lowest reading since January 2022, and 71% below the $169.8M it started 2026 with.

PRIME's +$200M goal: teapawt.net/Cardanians_io/status/2…
Currently, we're on the verge of a new growth phase for Cardano DeFi.
Cardano PRIME, a 120M $ADA program by @alphagrowth1, aims to increase Cardano's TVL by $200M+ over the next 12 months.
The strategy combines ecosystem grants, liquidity incentives, new integrations and improvements to existing DeFi protocols.
They've already completed the ecosystem audit, identified the gaps and started onboarding projects.
The focus will be on attracting liquidity and making it sustainable beyond the incentive period.
While it's still just beginning, this could be a defining moment for Cardano DeFi and its future.
Excited to see how the Cardano DeFi ecosystem evolves over the coming months.
