The ₳22M copper reserve is basically dead on arrival. Constitutional Committee: 0 Yes, 3 No, 4 not voted (needs 2/3). DRep Yes: 0.41% vs 67% needed. Expires Nov 15. CC reason that stuck: the proposal doc lived on a normal website. Constitution Art. II Sec. 6.1 wants immutable storage. CAP-9 (v3, Nov 3) would remove that immutable-metadata rule. Copper showed why the rule exists, and why someone wants it gone. #Cardano

Cardano just slipped under Chainlink. $LINK #17 — $8.36B $ADA #18 — $6.84B Over a year: LINK -29.6%, ADA -67.8%. An oracle network now outranks a top L1. #Cardano

$ADA had the worst 30 days of any coin in the top 20. $ADA -26.2% $XLM -23.2% $SOL -19.9% $XRP -16.6% $BTC -7.6% Fear & Greed sits at 25, extreme fear. Either this is where patient money steps in, or there's more to bleed. #Cardano

A year ago Cardano was worth 2x Zcash. Today Zcash is worth 3.2x Cardano. $ADA $0.578 → $0.183 (-68%) $ZEC $650 → $1,292 (+99%) Monero is above ADA too. The market pays for privacy right now, and Midnight, Cardano's privacy chain, hasn't lifted ADA yet. #Cardano

21,000,000 ADA just went back into the Cardano treasury. It was IO's Catalyst Fund 15 milestone, cancelled after the Cardano Foundation took over Catalyst. Returned on-chain as a treasury donation this week (Koios, epoch 666). Unspent money going back. More of this. #Cardano

9 days after the Binance hack, native $ADA withdrawals are still off. Binance status this morning: ADA on Cardano = withdrawals closed, deposits open. Only BSC-pegged ADA can leave. Their Nov 6 update named LTC and NEAR for "end of next week". Cardano wasn't on it. #Cardano

Midnight mainnet just moved from Ledger 8 to Ledger 9. Native ECDSA + Keccak-256, contract-to-contract calls, and auto-migrated balances — holders need to do nothing. Went straight to mainnet (skipped Preprod). #Cardano #Midnight

#US Treasury cut #MEXC off the US financial system today. FinCEN: at least $16B in illicit flows (May 2021–May 2026) tied to Iran, North Korea, Russia + cybercrime. CEX rails can vanish overnight. Self-custody on Cardano doesn't. #Cardano

DijkstraNet hard-forked to protocol v12 on Nov 2 (node 11.2). Next: Node 11.2.1 with mainnet clearance + a memory fix. EMURGO deregisters its DReps Nov 30 — check yours. #Cardano intersectmbo.org/news/inters…

ADA traders still piled long. Bybit ADA/USDT accounts: 74.05% long (ratio 2.854). Binance: 65.27% long (1.879). 24h liquidations: $1.04M longs vs $162K shorts. Price ~$0.187 after a $0.178 low — and positioning barely budged. #Cardano

RealFi (Cardano RWA stablecoin, live since Oct 1) targets Ethereum mainnet on Dec 1. CEO John O'Connor: vaults with AlphaGrowth, then Euler + other EVM DeFi. Cross-chain next. #Cardano

Crypto just got closer to your 401(k). A DOL rule that would let fiduciaries add digital assets to retirement plans reached the White House for final review (Nov 5). Safe harbor for six diligence factors. Not a mandate. Not approved yet. #Cardano

Amaru can forge Cardano mainnet blocks now. PRAGMA's Rust node v10.11.20261105 ships Minimum Viable Block Producer: forging is no longer testnet-only. Mempool selection + CIP-0203 software tags so blocks can show which client made them. #Cardano

Fear & Greed: 50 → 28 in one day. Neutral yesterday. Fear today. −22 points. ADA at $0.1878 (−4.26% 24h). Sentiment just caught the tape. #Cardano

AlwaysTrue just stepped into the open. Cardano-native shop taking DevX from IO — product, audits, and developer tools — posted its first public intro today. Founded by @theroberm, building on Cardano since 2021. Quiet builders. Louder now. #Cardano

Three Cardano treasury asks, live update (Koios, epoch 666): PFMS ₳9.6M: 24.9% DRep yes (was 21.7% on Nov 3) AURORA ₳940K: 3.6% Copper ₳22M: 0.4% 67% needed. PFMS nudged up, still roughly ₳2.1B of yes stake short. Still the only one with real support. #Cardano

Elizabeth Warren is expected to chair Senate Banking when the new Congress opens in January 2027. The committee that oversees crypto, banks and digital assets — with a longtime critic in line for the gavel. Not confirmed yet. The direction is clear. #Cardano

ADA at $0.183 (−7.34% 24h). Overnight low: $0.178. On-chain: ₳21.31B still actively staked — 57.9% of circulating supply across 2,658 pools. Price is loud. Stakers aren't. #Cardano #ADA

Amaru just shipped support for mainnet block production. PRAGMA's Rust node release v10.11.20261105: • Forging no longer testnet-only • Mempool txs in arrival order • CIP-0203 software tags on by default A concrete step forward for Cardano client diversity. #Cardano

Tomorrow at Cardano Developers Office Hours #86: @DennisMittmann, CTO & founder of @BlockSign_io, on CIP-113 in production. What CIP-113 is: • Programmable native tokens on Cardano • Live on mainnet since Oct 2 • Issuers can add rules: KYC checks, freeze & seize, transfer restrictions • Already supported by wallets like Eternl and explorers like CardanoScan The part most people skip: • Following a technical standard ≠ regulatory compliance • Issuer legal teams, often with external counsel, assess the rules • Independent auditors can test whether controls work, incl. smart contracts • It's a shared responsibility Where BlockSign fits: • The operational layer: access rights, transaction approvals, audit trails • Turning regulatory requirements into enforceable controls A standard is the starting point, not the finish line. On the agenda: CIP-113 in production, regulated stablecoins and MCP-based agentic payments. 📅 Fri Nov 6, 09:00 UTC Which regulated asset would you most like to see issued with CIP-113 on Cardano? #Cardano $ADA
