Deezy goes over the latest news on the midnight airdrop! Also, Charles Hoskinson was just on the Shawn Ryan show and we have the latest clip! 

Finland en Denemarken wijzen eurobonds af. Dat is positief nieuws. In theorie zijn eurobonds een goed idee. Nu de VS er alles aan doen om hun eigen positie als financiële grootmacht te ondermijnen, zou de EU in dat gat kunnen springen. Er kan een grote markt met eurostaatsobligaties komen, een markt die op dit moment nog erg gefragmenteerd is. Diverse onderzoeken geven aan dat de EU-landen daardoor goedkoper kunnen lenen, wat een 0,2% lagere rente op staatsobligaties zou betekenen. Voor Nederland is dat een besparing van ongeveer €1 mrd per jaar.Ik ben altijd voorzichtig met dit soort ‘what if’-onderzoeken. Zeker als grote banken het hebben uitgerekend. Ze denken waarschijnlijk meer aan hun eigen portemonnee dan aan de risico’s die ermee gepaard gaan. Bedenk: we hebben al eurobonds. Daar zijn we tijdens de coronacrisis ingefoezeld. ‘Never waste a good crisis’, dachten ze in Brussel, en dus haalden ze eurobonds van stal. Het zou een eenmalige exercitie zijn. Maar volgens de goede oude Brusselse traditie van de kamelenneustheorie wordt het nu opnieuw geprobeerd. De kamelenneus is een metafoor voor een situatie waarin het toestaan van een kleine, ogenschijnlijk onschuldige handeling de deur opent voor een grotere, duidelijk ongewenste situatie. Is de neus van de kameel eenmaal binnen, dan volgt de rest van het dier uiteindelijk ook wel. Dat het plan opnieuw wordt gebracht, geeft meteen de betrouwbaarheid van de beleidsmakers aan. Het was toch eenmalig? Het nieuwe eurobondprogramma is naar verwachting slechts €150 mrd. Wat is nou €150 mrd op de totale Europese economie van €13.400 mrd? Maar als je eenmaal met de eerste tranche hebt ingestemd, is er eigenlijk geen reden om de volgende niet goed te keuren. En zo hobbelt de rest van de eurobondkameel de tent binnen. Het grote risico is dat je hiermee alle drukmiddelen om de zuidelijke landen tot begrotingsdiscipline te dwingen, uit handen geeft. Frankrijk is het ultieme voorbeeld. In de afgelopen twintig jaar hield het zich slechts drie jaar aan de Maastrichtcriteria. Drie jaar! Elk jaar was er de belofte dat het volgend jaar beter zou gaan en elk jaar werd die belofte gebroken. Momenteel is het land zelfs bezig de pensioenleeftijd te verlagen. Dat betekent een nog groter overheidstekort. Mijn voorstel: laat Frankrijk en de overige zuidelijke landen eerst maar eens bewijzen dat ze hun zaken financieel op orde hebben. Dan kunnen we duidelijke regels met harde straffen instellen als ze zich er niet aan houden. Pas daarna kunnen we eens gaan nadenken over eurobonds. Niet andersom. Laat eerst maar eens een trackrecord zien. Ik zou zeggen van een jaar of twintig. Net zo lang als ze hun beloften hebben gebroken.

Thank you to the folks at Sustain (https://sustainoss.org/) for providing the hosting account for CHAOSSCast! CHAOSScast – Episode 114 In this episode of CHAOSScast, hosts Georg Link and Nicole Huesman engage in a deep discussion with Christian Taylor, Terence (Tex) McCutcheon, and Johnny Kelly about measuring and enhancing open source community health through innovative methods. Christian and his team share their experiences in implementing the 'paid open source model' within the Cardano blockchain community, designed to retain and motivate contributors. The panel discusses a variety of topics, including governance models, the integration of AI for report generation, and the challenges of balancing open source principles with corporate interests. They also explore specific tools and metrics used to evaluate project health and community engagement, providing an illuminating look into the future of open source development. Hit the download button now! [00:01:40] Our guests give a brief introduction. [00:04:37] Christian provides a non-technical intro to Cardano, a top blockchain focused on peer reviewed, academic rigor. [00:06:07] Johnny explains Cardano's high decentralization via SPOs, DReps, and community tools like GovTool, and Christian outlines how open source ties in. [00:09:39] Christian talks about open source governance and Intersect and explains Intersect serves like the Linux Foundation for Cardano, holding code, facilitating contribution ladders, and launching an incubation program. [00:13:06] Georg gives a summary for those who are new: Cardano's treasury is funded via blockchain transaction fees. This funding supports open source development, tools, documentation, and maintainers, and Christian elaborates more about this. [00:15:39] Johnny details governance and funding decisions and Christian emphasizes the transparency and checks and balance system. [00:17:08] Nicole raises concerns about aligning paid models with open source ethos and Christian discusses Intersect's neutral, community-owned governance structure and internal checks and Johnny shares a link about the current members and the elective process within Intersect. [00:20:37] Christian shares using Bitergia and CHAOSS metrics to build out Cardano's open source health dashboard. Focus areas were response times, geographic contributions, contribution ladders, and project maturity. [00:26:03] Tex shares their dashboard is public and useful for spotting high-impact projects. He aims to improve documentation standards and repo governance practices. [00:31:05] Georg gives a brief description of the “jellyfish diagrams” that show how developers connect across projects. [00:33:26] Christian shares their approach to using AI in metrics reporting and Tex emphasizes AI assists analysis but doesn't replace human validation. [00:37:10] Nicole asks if the paid open source model is being shared externally. Christian confirms they presented the model at open source summits, validated it with leading experts, stress-tested with community input, and outlines a six month pilot of the model. Value Adds (Picks) of the week: [00:44:06] Georg's pick is going on his first cruise. [00:45:07] Christian's pick is family. [00:45:54] Tex's pick is simplicity. [00:46:38] Johnny's pick is the Calidus Pool-Key. [00:47:54] Nicole's pick is meeting and interviewing Dr. Laura Kelly. *Panelists: * Georg Link Nicole Huesman Guests: Christian Taylor Terence (Tex) McCutcheon Johnny Kelly Links: CHAOSS (https://chaoss.community/) CHAOSS Project X (https://twitter.com/chaossproj?lang=en) CHAOSScast Podcast (https://podcast.chaoss.community/) CHAOSS YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@CHAOSStube/videos) podcast@chaoss.community (mailto:podcast@chaoss.community) Georg Link Website (https://georg.link/) Nicole Huesman X (https://twitter.com/uoduckswtd) Christian Taylor X (https://x.com/DeOpenSourceGuy) Christian Taylor LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-taylor-766b01b1/) Terence McCutcheon X (https://x.com/Tmacqt87) Terence McCutcheon LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tex-oso/) Johnny Kelly X (https://x.com/intertreeJK) Johnny Kelly LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/intertreejk/) Open Source Office at Intersect MBO (YouTube) (https://www.youtube.com/@osointersectmbo) Cardano (https://cardano.org/) Cardano GovTool (https://gov.tools/) Intersect (https://www.intersectmbo.org/) Intersect Committees (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/about/readme/committee-members) Open Source Office (OSO) (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/about/open-source-office-oso) Bitergia Repo Maturity Reports (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/all-monthly-reports/bitergia-repo-maturity-reports) Edinburgh Decentralization Index Dashboard (https://informatics.ed.ac.uk/blockchain/edi/dashboard) Contribution Ladder Framework (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/policies/contribution-ladder-framework) Current Open Source Committee Members list and Term Rotation Schedules (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/about/readme/committee-members) Bitergia Monthly Maturity Reports for 2025 (https://committees.docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-open-source-committee/all-monthly-reports/bitergia-repo-maturity-reports/monthly-maturity-reports-2025) Introductory Article on POSM (Intersect) (https://www.intersectmbo.org/news/the-paid-open-source-model) Intersecting Open Source and Sustainability: A Paid Open Source Model for Ecosystems Full PDF (https://493748844-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLBdnzp0eZpGri9sVpseI%2Fuploads%2FvuisqFT8uCyKSDgpNmyW%2FPaid%20Open%20Source%20Model-%20LIVE.pdf?alt=media&token=577c8bd1-c9df-43a0-8b57-e883ddb1254a) Bitergia Dashboard (https://intersectmbo.biterg.io/app/dashboards#/view/Overview) The Paid Open Source Model Concept (YouTube) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4PgqaPWNT4) New Calidus Pool-Key for SPOs and Services Interacting with Pools (https://forum.cardano.org/t/new-calidus-pool-key-for-spos-and-services-interacting-with-pools/143812) She Lights the Way (https://shelightstheway.com/) Dr. Laura Kelly (https://drlaurakelly.com/) Special Guests: Johnny Kelly, Christian Taylor, and Terence (Tex) McCutheon.

Pisa allows users to pay for transaction fees, minimum ADA, and collateral using native tokens instead of ADA. The smart contract handles real-time token swaps behind the scenes and returns a ready-to-submit transaction. No changes to the Cardano ledger are required. SPOs are involved as normal, and there's no batching – just seamless UX. Developers can integrate Pisa with a few lines of code via HTTP API or an upcoming NPM package. Topics include:What Babel fees areHow Pisa improves the user experienceDifferences from other solutions like AquariumDeveloper integration and the planned CIPLaunch timelines and supported tokensPisa launches within 60 days and is set to improve onboarding for wallets, DeFi apps, and games across Cardano.

Als je vluchtig naar de koersen kijkt, lijkt het alsof het eerste halfjaar niet zo bijzonder was. De S&P 500 steeg dit jaar tot nu toe 5%, de AEX 3,5%. Maar schijn bedriegt en u weet dat er flink wat beweging is geweest. Die cijfers mogen dan goed klinken, maar als u in een wereldaandelenindex had belegd, had u toch 4% verloren. De belangrijkste verklaring is de enorme daling van de Amerikaanse dollar. Aan het begin van het jaar dacht iedereen nog dat pariteit – één dollar voor één euro – slechts een kwestie van tijd zou zijn. De Amerikaanse economie was ijzersterk en zou onder Trump alleen maar sterker worden. Tegelijkertijd lag de Europese economie met de pootjes omhoog. In een halfjaar tijd is dat perspectief volledig gedraaid. Altijd interessant om te zien dat iedereen optimistisch is als de dollar ten opzichte van de euro op een piek staat. En na (let op: na) de scherpste daling sinds tijden is iedereen somber. Ik zag zelfs al rapporten van grote zakenbanken met koersdoelen van $1,40 per euro. Opeens is de toekomst van de dollar als reservemunt van de wereld gedoemd. Om Mark Twain maar aan te halen: ‘Het bericht over mijn dood was overdreven.’ Dat geldt ook voor de dollar. Gezien de houding van de Amerikaanse regering zullen steeds meer partijen naar alternatieven voor de dollar gaan zoeken. Maar het zal nog wel even duren voordat de dollar zijn titel van reservemunt zal verliezen. Subjectieve verhalen doen het altijd goed, maar de belangrijkste verklaringen kunnen we gewoon in de markt vinden Als eerste is er het renteverschil tussen de Verenigde Staten en Europa. Dat is in het eerste halfjaar flink gedaald. Dat maakt de dollar relatief onaantrekkelijk. Het renteverschil tussen Amerikaanse en Duitse tweejarige obligaties bedroeg in het begin van het jaar nog bijna 2,4%-punt. Dat is geslonken naar 1,9%-punt, wat de dollar minder aantrekkelijk maakt. Daarnaast zaten speculanten aan het begin van het jaar massaal short in de euro en long in de dollar. Die posities zijn inmiddels helemaal omgedraaid. Voor aandelenbeleggers maakt dat heel wat uit. Niet alleen bij de vertaling van Amerikaanse aandelenkoersen in euro’s. Ook in het Europese bedrijfsleven. Maar liefst een derde van de omzet van de Europese bedrijven wordt in dollars verdiend. Denk in Nederland aan bedrijven als Ahold, Aegon, Shell, Wolters Kluwer en Relx. Ahold genereert bijvoorbeeld 60% van zijn winst in de VS. In het tweede kwartaal was de gemiddelde dollarkoers 7% lager. Dat geeft dus een negatieve impact op de winst van circa 4%. Als iedereen zo somber is, zal de ergste dollardaling wel achter de rug zijn. Maar ik vraag me af of aandelenbeleggers wel genoeg rekening houden met die valutaire tegenwind. Ik zou voorzichtig zijn. Over een paar weken begint het winstcijferseizoen. Dat belooft spannend te worden. Over de column van Corné van Zeijl Corné van Zeijl is analist en strateeg bij Cardano en belegt ook privé.

Peter shares the top 10 impacts that these two major developments will have on the Cardano ecosystem. With the NIGHT token being airdropped into Cardano wallets and new Bitcoin-wrapping protocols entering the scene, users will see big changes in how they use and interact with DeFi on Cardano. Topics covered in this episode:Liquidity injection from Bitcoin holders and NIGHT token distributionADA usage increase as users pay for DeFi activityGrowth of Babel fee systems like Aquarium and FeeserMore users staking ADA, Bitcoin, and NIGHTUsers shifting to self-custody wallets to qualify for airdropsMillions of new wallets expectedDEX volume exploding from NIGHT and stablecoin swapsHigher network fees and congestion — but also more rewards for SPOsReal usage of Hydra and Mithril Layer 2 solutionsNewcomers joining Cardano and needing education and protectionWhether you're a long-time ADA holder or brand new to the ecosystem, this episode gives you the insights you need to prepare for what's next.

Markets are exploding after Donald Trump secures a ceasefire breakthrough with Iran, cooling off a major geopolitical powder keg. With fear fading and risk assets rallying, Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) are leading the crypto charge.

The Midnight GlacierDrop is finally here, and in this episode, I break down everything you need to know about claiming your NIGHT tokens.Midnight is a new privacy-focused blockchain built by IOG, featuring two key tokens: NIGHT (a utility and governance token) and DUST (a non-transferable shielded resource for private transactions).This episode walks through the entire claim and redemption process, eligibility requirements, and why the staggered release of NIGHT is designed to prevent token dumping. The GlacierDrop claim is open to holders of ADA, BTC, ETH, XRP, BNB, SOL, AVAX, and BAT based on a snapshot taken on June 11, 2025. ADA holders receive the largest allocation—50% of the eligible airdrop supply. You'll need to connect your wallet to the official GlacierDrop portal when it launches and claim within a 60-day window.After that, unclaimed tokens move to the Scavenger Mine phase, followed by a long-term Lost & Found period that spans four years. Redemption of NIGHT tokens follows a 360-day vesting schedule with unlocks every 90 days, starting randomly within the first 90 days post-claim.Each redemption requires a transaction on Cardano, so be ready to cover network fees.Also, Cardano SPOs can earn NIGHT by participating in Midnight's block production. Delegators to those pools will benefit too—so be sure to speak with your SPO. 

Fluxpoint Studio is bringing AI-powered trading to Cardano with the launch of A.D.A.M, an autonomous portfolio balancing and liquidity provisioning tool.By integrating their agentic intelligence engine, A.D.A.M can analyse real-time on-chain and social data to optimise trades. The tool launches in phases and operates non-custodially, supporting trading on platforms like Strike Finance and potentially others, such as Flow. Find out how it works and what it costs to get started.

In this episode, Peter dives into an important development for Cardano governance: the release of a new decentralised voting tool by the Cardano Foundation. This open-source platform, accessible at voting.cardanofoundation.org, enables DReps (Delegated Representatives), SPOs (Stake Pool Operators), and Constitutional Committee members to vote on-chain using a streamlined interface.Critically, the tool supports multisig wallets and stores immutable voting rationales on IPFS via integrations with Endmaker or custom IPFS providers. The release comes at a crucial time, as the existing community-built voting tool, GovTools, is facing funding challenges. GovTools wasn't included in the latest Intersect budget, leaving its continued development uncertain. A 100k ADA maintenance grant will keep the tool functional for now, but future progress depends on renewed community support.Peter walks through how the Cardano Foundation's tool works, outlining the step-by-step process from inputting your DRep ID to signing and submitting your vote. The new interface simplifies rationale submission, removing the need for GitHub uploads and allowing users to use Endmaker API tokens or even custom storage like Iagon.Crucially, the entire voting tool is open source and can be run locally or on private infrastructure, which ensures the resilience and decentralisation of Cardano governance. If hosted tools like GovTools go offline, users can still vote independently. This tool complements other platforms in the governance ecosystem like Tempo Vote, Governance.space, and the Cardano Forum, but it's one of the few to offer full voting capabilities.Peter applauds the Cardano Foundation for their contribution to the ecosystem's decentralisation and encourages the community to explore this new tool to strengthen participation in on-chain governance.

In this episode, Peter breaks down a major announcement from Iagon, a decentralised cloud storage provider building on Cardano, which has seen its IAG token spike in price following news of a collaboration with CloudCourt and advisory support from the Ford Motor Company. The partnership explores a proof of concept aimed at storing sensitive legal data using decentralised infrastructure—a key use case for compliance-heavy industries.The solution being tested combines off-chain encrypted data storage with on-chain access control and audit trails, helping meet stringent data protection regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR. This hybrid design ensures data sovereignty (e.g. storing data within national borders), robust security, and long-term cost savings compared to traditional centralised solutions. The concept is particularly relevant for law firms and large corporates that need to manage vast volumes of confidential legal documents like depositions and trial transcripts.Peter explains that Ford's involvement—while in an advisory capacity—brings valuable enterprise-level perspective, especially given its extensive legal operations. This project not only validates Iagon's use of blockchain for regulated environments, but also marks a significant milestone for Cardano in attracting Fortune 50-level interest.To top it off, there's a teaser: a second Fortune 50 company may also be involved in the near future.

Cardano DeFi is heating up this winter with a flurry of activity across lending, perpetuals, stablecoins, and community engagement.Strike Finance has now opened liquidity provisioning for users, allowing ADA holders to deposit funds that fuel leverage trading on the platform. This significantly boosts available liquidity and increases max position sizes. Liquidity providers and $STRIKE stakers benefit from trading fees, with usage metrics already trending upward.Flow, a new perpetual lending platform on Cardano, is currently holding a token sale. With 5 million ADA raised in just one day, community demand is clear. The platform promises loans without maturity dates and will enable users to use the $FLOW token for staking, governance, and pool creation. The token sale is pro-rata and fully decentralised, with a 68% public allocation.A major proposal is also making waves—allocating $100 million USD worth of ADA from the Cardano Treasury into stablecoins, Bitcoin, and other assets to create a sovereign wealth fund. Advocates see this as a critical move to inject liquidity and kickstart Cardano DeFi. Concerns remain around sell pressure and execution, but overall sentiment seems to favour the plan as a needed catalyst.USDM's Jillian provided valuable insight into how yield works in fiat-backed stablecoins, explaining how platforms like Coinbase offer interest through profit-sharing agreements, while issuers like Moneta Digital (behind USDM) are legally prohibited from doing the same directly. USDM needs to reach 150–200 million AUM to begin yielding returns via DeFi partners like Minswap or Liquid.On the lighter side, SNEK.FUN continues to innovate with new community tools including live wallet-linked chat during token sales. They're also launching 1,111 unique figurines, each signed by the artists who brought them to life—blending digital culture with physical collectables.Finally, Peter announces a limited-edition CardanoPress Wapuu pin giveaway for anyone with a live CardanoPress-powered site. Only 25 will be made, a nod to both the WordPress and Cardano communities.

16th June: Blockchain DXB podcast

Bitcoin holds strong above $105K amid Iran's retaliation — retaining 61.5% market dominance.Ethereum bounces back above $2,500 with growing DeFi activity and investor confidence.HYPE rallies nearly 8% toward its all-time high at $43, reflecting ongoing momentum.Alts follow BTC's lead — Cardano, Avalanche, XRP, and Polkadot all show strong recovery signals.

Crypto News: The WSJ is reporting that Amazon and Walmart are looking to launch their own stablecoins. Stablecoin bill could get passed on Tuesday. Trident Digital aims to raise $500 million to create a corporate treasury focused on XRP. Cardano's Charles Hoskinson proposed converting $100M of ADA into bitcoin and stablecoins.Show Sponsor - ✅ VeChain is a versatile enterprise-grade L1 smart contract platform https://www.vechain.org/ 

Bitcoin beweegt deze week rond de 108.000 dollar. De koers deed het deze week goed, met een lichte terugval na het onduidelijke handelsakkoord tussen de VS en China. Daarmee lijkt een aanval op het eerdere koersrecord van 111.800 dollar nabij. Een duidelijke aanleiding voor de koersstijging deze week is er niet, maar de rust op de financiële markten en structurele aankopen door bedrijven – groot én klein – zorgen voor een stevige ondergrond. Ethereum presteert opvallend beter dan Bitcoin en daar speelt een ander verhaal op de achtergrond. Want er is beweging in ETF-land. De succesvolle beleggingsproducten voor Bitcoin en Ethereum krijgen mogelijk gezelschap van soortgelijke fondsen voor altcoins. Analisten van Bloomberg achten de kans op goedkeuring voor ETF’s rond onder andere Litecoin en Solana op 90 procent, nog dit jaar. Ook XRP, Dogecoin, Cardano, Polkadot, HBAR en Avalanche maken kans. De Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC zou deze projecten behandelen als ‘commodity’ in plaats van ‘security’. Dat betekent minder zware regelgeving en opent de deur voor bredere adoptie. Toch leidde het nieuws niet overal tot koersstijgingen. Alleen Solana veerde zichtbaar op, al staat de munt nog ver onder het niveau van enkele maanden geleden. Ethereum zelf kreeg ook een boost, doordat de SEC vermoedelijk ‘staking’ goedkeurt voor de ETF’s. Dit mechanisme is essentieel voor het functioneren van het netwerk, vergelijkbaar met mining bij Bitcoin, en levert rendement op. Daarmee zouden beleggers in de Ethereum ETF straks mogelijk een jaarlijkse ‘yield’ ontvangen. Dat maakt de producten aantrekkelijker voor institutionele partijen die op zoek zijn naar rendement binnen risicovolle beleggingscategorieën. Ook stablecoins maken vaart, met nieuws uit de hoek van grote techbedrijven. Apple werkt aan een samenwerking met USDC-uitgever Circle, Airbnb kijkt naar een integratie via Worldpay, en X (voorheen Twitter) onderzoekt opties met fintechbedrijf Stripe. Daarmee lijkt Big Tech zich steeds nadrukkelijker te positioneren rond digitaal geld. Circle zelf is sinds vorige week beursgenoteerd. Het aandeel opende op 31 dollar, maar is inmiddels verdrievoudigd in waarde. Daarmee wordt het bedrijf, dat zich volledig richt op stablecoins, gewaardeerd op ruim 25 miljard dollar. Transparantie en regelconformiteit zijn kernwaarden van het bedrijf, dat zich daarmee onderscheidt van concurrent Tether. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Pim Swart en Remy van der Nagel over een Hyperliquid, een nieuw decentraal handelsplatform. Dat wint snel aan populariteit en de koers van de bijbehorende coin gaat ook rap. Sinds april van 10 dollar naar ruim 40 dollar opgelopen. Hyperliquid zou zomaar kunnen uitgroeien tot één van de supersterren van deze cryptocyclus, maar dan moet het wel zijn enorm ambitieuze beloftes waarmaken.
