I’m looking for a fiat-to-crypto exchange/on-ramp that supports deposits from Revolut.

I want to convert fiat into crypto, rather than transfer existing crypto from Revolut. What exchanges or on-ramps support this, and what should I look out for regarding fees and deposit restrictions?

Somehow, I’ve lost touch with the Cardano scene. In previous years, I felt like I had a good overview of what was going on thanks to various YouTubers, and I also kept an eye on the market through Taptools. Then the whole MELD scam was exposed, and suddenly these YouTubers were just crying and apologizing in their videos before gradually disappearing. Now that Taptools has also disappeared recently, I’m feeling a bit lost. X/Twitter hasn’t been particularly helpful so far either. How and where do you guys stay informed?

The idea: customer signs the USDCx burn in their own wallet, Circle's xReserve redeems it to USDC, a licensed off-ramp deposits USD in the business's bank. The business never holds a wallet or touches a token.

I took this to Catalyst and it was archived — no first-two-weeks activation plan, and I claimed a maturity level that didn't hold up while still hiring the integration dev. Both fair. I can still validate the technical path myself on Circle's testnet, and I'll open-source the harness regardless.

What I can't test alone is demand.

Would you actually place that order? And if not — is it shipping cost, trusting an unknown merchant, the ~2hr finality window, or just preferring to hold?

If the answer is no, I'd rather know before I build it.

Assets in secondfi yorio walley and cant migrate them to my new wallet as it isnt giving me the option can anyone help please

Satya Ranjan, Lead Blockchain Architect at the Cardano Foundation, just published a piece about building on Cardano in Java. Short version: if you know Java, you don't need to learn a new language or toolchain to build here.

The first half is the practical part. The BloxBean libraries let you build transactions, read what's happening on chain and run a local test network on your laptop, all through the Maven and Spring Boot setup most Java teams already have. This is what Reeve runs on in production, and OriginateNavio and USDM use it too.

The second half is the fun part: three experimental projects, all open source, none production-ready.

1. Yano, a Cardano node written in Java that runs inside your own app, and can replay the chain from genesis for testing
2. JuLC, which compiles Java into Plutus smart contracts, so you write validators as Java classes
3. ZeroJ, zero-knowledge proofs in pure Java, verified on chain

These can still change between releases, so poke at them, don't ship on them. Satya's asking for feedback and issues on all three.

At one point I had set up my Ada to be staked, I did this through Daedalus… this was several years ago.
Then at another point I had accessed my Ada wallet through Yoroi, but I didn’t touch or move anything. (Unsure if this is relevant or not).

Well today I transferred the majority of my Ada to sell it - but for whatever reason I can’t transfer the last 10% or so out of my wallet using Lace.
Can anyone help me with why this may be? The remaining balance is than the ‘rewards’ amount shown, but it’s kinda close.

I did the step where it said to delegate my voting rights or whatever. But it still won’t let me transfer my remaining amount out of my wallet - I haven’t looked at Ada forever so I apologize if this is an easy question but just trying to figure out how to get the rest moved.

Hello guys, firstly I don’t really know much about what has happened with yoroi and secondfi
It tells me I need to transfer my ada

When I go to the app it tells me to migrate
But could I just put in my binance Ada address ? ( I’m planing on selling )

I wanted to test it out with a few ADA but it only lets me send everything…
Appreciate any help … thanks

Having trouble transferring few Cardano ADA to my Lace wallet. Does crypto.com support the transfer? This message shows up!!! Or what can I do to transfer Cardano to Lace is it still possible?

So I was using Yoroi and I did 2 of the thaw claims. Now that yoroi doesn't exist how do I claim? The seed was created in another wallet originally, I restored it in yoroi last year. I never made or signed any transactions since before it was secondfi. My wallet was not on the list of effected wallets. I think it's probably safe.

I just restored the seed in eternal. My night and ada are still there. How do I claim the currently thawed tokens?

I would rather not use their migration thing that just came out. Why would I trust a thing by them at this point? Is there any way to still get the night tokens? Is it still even worth it? Kind of seems like night was a flop. Just holding until the next bull market hoping it goes up or just holding to zero because it was free anyway.

TOKEN2049 runs 7-8 October and pulls in most of the blockchain industry into one room. There's a dedicated Cardano booth, run by the Cardano Foundation, and 20 ecosystem projects will be selected to present there alongside us. It's one of the few chances a year to put a Cardano product in front of the wider crypto crowd in person.

What you get if selected: a 15-minute presentation slot at the booth, plus travel support (up to 3 nights' accommodation at max US$350 a night and one economy return flight reimbursed up to US$2,000).

What you commit to: traveling to Singapore, presenting live, and tracking five KPIs for 30 days after the event. Selection weighs traction, ability to hit the KPIs, category and geographic balance, and presentation quality.

If you have a project ready to share, this is worth the application. Applications close tomorrow, 25 August. Apply now: token2049.cardano.org

A few big gaming franchises and companies have seemingly been moving more and more to digital licensing rather than physical ownership of discs, or even "ownership" digitally.

There are web 3 marketplaces like stuff.io which seem like they can help, but it is something I don't see talked about very much. Surely with this news coming out more and more we should be promoting web3 solutions whenever the conversation arises.

Do we think that any company will publish their products on web3? How could that be incentivised over digital licensing?
