I’ve been a devoted Cardano community member since 2018. Never once strayed from the vision, never once turned my back on the ecosystem, never once had the desire to push and help prosper any other brand. Years later I’ve had the honor to present something we’ve worked so hard to build @NuvolaDigital & @VolaNetwork at the Senate in Rome, and represent Cardano as a whole. I stood at that podium proud and spoke to national leaders with confidence that WE will deliver a world changing product, and that the process has already begun. Thank you to our devoted $NVL community and the broader Cardano ecosystem that still supports us. We aren’t just building a better future, we are the future! @IOHK_Charles @Cardano_CF @emurgo_io @Cardano @IOGroup ☁️🕊️🇮🇹
Following our meeting at Palazzo Piacentini in Rome in November 2025, our CEO, Raul De Benedittis, was invited to speak at the Senate in the Palazzo Giustiniani Building, addressing the role of decentralized technologies in strengthening Europe’s data sovereignty, digital infrastructure and what Nuvola is contributing to the industry. The presentation highlighted the economic potential of DePIN and how decentralized cloud compute can be leveraged to boost national revenues. ☁️🕊️

We've been working on making uploads in Nuvola Drive app more reliable. Our latest update improves background transfers, allowing uploads to recover from network interruptions and retry without requiring you to reopen the app. If your Wi-Fi connection drops, transfers will wait until it's available again before resuming. A little more control over how your files move 🫡

AI is advancing fast. Growing digital demand is pushing us to rethink how cloud infrastructure is built. Vola Network takes a decentralized approach. Nuvola Drive shows what that looks like in practice: a familiar, easy-to-use cloud experience, without exposing users to the technical complexity behind it. ☁️🕊️

That's the next step for us: making sure Nuvola Drive is ready for real-world users. Our ISP in India will help us onboard the first few thousand real users for large-scale testing. Shoutout to our beta testers for their amazing work so far! We're getting closer to production and look forward to bringing decentralized infrastructure beyond Web3. Thanks for your support, Pete!
Nuvola is getting into the part that actually matters: real customers. @NuvolaDigital Drive v2 and @volanetwork v2 look close to customer onboarding, with early Drive beta feedback sounding solid. That is the Cardano app test I care about: does it get used outside our bubble? Anyone testing Drive beta yet?

Fully verifiable. Zero Trust. On-Chain.🕊️
A major update to the Vola Explorer is now live! We’ve added more details, network stats, an improved layout, and better readability for transactions and file uploads. The Explorer also now includes a detailed rewards breakdown for every node, verifiable on-chain. Transparency is at the core of everything we do. ☁️🕊️

Nuvola Drive doesn’t have file size limitations, so you don’t have to choose between storage and quality. Store your memories private and encrypted while keeping them in their original resolution, without compromising quality. Your original files stay intact, exactly as you uploaded them☁️🫡

Built as a Cardano Partnerchain, Vola is preparing for V2 including the Cardano bridge, bringing decentralized storage infrastructure one step closer to the Cardano ecosystem. A huge shoutout to our testnet node operators, who are helping keep the network running, testing, and growing every step of the way. We couldn’t do this without you 🫡 V2 is coming🕊️ 👀
