What does Dijkstra ask of you now? Good news, there is time to find out and prepare properly. Weekly Update #127: inc the node roadmap, what SPOs, developers and DReps can do now, and more... intersectmbo.org/news/inters…

The Update Constitutional Committee action has ratified. 🗳️✅ Thank you to everyone who helped get this over the line. Those working behind the scenes, reaching out to exchanges and pools, tracking down contacts, sharing information and making sure the right people understood what was at stake, the effort that went into this was immense. Every DRep and SPO who took the time to vote, even though the decision or process isn’t necessarily an easy one, thank you for showing up and participating. 🙏 And @IOHK_Charles. Thanks for getting out here with us, using your reach to explain why getting this action through mattered. Every bit helped and this one really was a collective effort across the ecosystem. Finally thank you and congratulations to the new CC members, who put themselves forward to keep things moving the way our Constitution intends.

At Intersect, there's a thread that runs from Cardano community participation all the way to the Intersect Board. As a member you can join a working group, contribute to a committee, vote or stand for election through to helping to shape the organisation at Board level. Not every member will be eligible to apply for the Board today, but everyone can take the first step towards greater participation or influence, and there are still many ways to take part. All eligible, verified members can vote and help choose who represents the membership. Applications are now open for two member-elected Board seats, continuing that pathway from community involvement to organisational leadership. Find out more: intersectmbo.org/news/announ…

72 HOURS TO VOTE ⏳ The Update Constitutional Committee 2026 action will expire on September 1 at 21:44:51 UTC. Current voting progress: 🗳️ DReps: 66.07% / 67% 🗳️ SPOs: 37.58% / 51% (The Constitutional Committee doesn't vote on this action). When the action expires, four existing Committee members’ terms will also end. If the Committee is not updated, it will fall to three active members - below the required committeeMinSize of five. Until the Committee returns to at least five members, Treasury Withdrawal, Parameter Update, Constitution Update and Hard Fork Initiation actions cannot be ratified. This could also affect the Dijkstra/Leios roadmap, which will require constitutional as well as technical updates. Increased SPO participation is particularly urgent. Please review the proposal and cast your Yes, No or Abstain vote before the deadline. Whichever way you assess the action, please don’t leave your voting power silent. Read the proposal and vote: gov.tools/connected/governan…

48 HOURS TO VOTE: The Update CC 2026 action will expire on Sep 1 at 21:44:51 UTC. ⚠️ Current voting progress: 🗳️ DReps: 66.3% / 67% 🗳️ SPOs: 39% / 51% Update: DReps are now very close to the required threshold. For SPOs, a significant shift in voting participation is still needed within the next 48 hours. If this action doesn't pass, existing Committee members’ terms will expire and the Committee will fall below the required committeeMinSize of five. Until the Committee returns to at least five members, Treasury Withdrawal, Parameter Update, Constitution Update and Hard Fork Initiation actions cannot be ratified. This could also affect progress towards Dijkstra and Leios, which will require constitutional as well as technical updates. 👉 SPO participation is now critical. Please review the proposal and cast your Yes, No or Abstain vote before the deadline. Whichever way you assess the action, please do not leave your voting power silent. Read the documentation for SPO voting here: developers.cardano.org/docs/…

Day 2 at @RareEvo 2026 is here! Visit us at the @IntersectMBO booth to learn more about our member-driven organization at the heart of the Cardano ecosystem. We have t-shirts, hats, and discussions with a smile. We look forward to seeing you there!

We have been following the security incident affecting SecondFi closely, and our thoughts are with everyone impacted. On scope, and to help avoid wider concern, this is an isolated issue specific to SecondFi’s own wallet software. Other wallets across the Cardano ecosystem are not affected, and at the network level Cardano continues exactly as intended - with the ledger intact and consensus producing and validating blocks without interruption. We have also seen the community step in to investigate and support the response, a reflection of how this ecosystem rallies when it matters. That collaborative instinct is one of Cardano’s real strengths. For those affected, however, the official @secondfiapp account remains the authoritative channel for updates on the incident, the response, and any next steps. A reminder, incidents like this attract opportunists. Stay alert to impersonation and phishing. No legitimate party will ever ask for your seed phrase or private keys.
