October deadline
Now, what’s cooking? The Grayscale Cardano ADA Trust ETF is queued in Delaware’s official registration hall.
The SEC already gave a nod to NYSE Arca’s filing earlier this year. Bloomberg whispers it’s got about a 75% shot of getting the green light.
But the Cardano community, they’re playing it cool, eyes peeled for that October deadline like it’s the season finale of their favorite show.
It’s the pulse of a dream inching closer to reality.
Zero-knowledge proof
Think about what this means at your everyday grind. It’s like waiting for that big promotion after years of hustle, awkward silences, nail-biting emails, and then that sweet go-ahead.
You just know the gears are about to shift, and when that ETF approval hits, Cardano’s gonna step into a spotlight it’s been knocking on for years.
But that’s not all. Cardano’s crew, Input Output, dropped a big gun in the tech world, the Halo2-Plutus verifier. Now, don’t glaze over.
This open-source marvel lets Cardano flex some serious crypto muscles with zero-knowledge proofs.
What’s that, you ask? Privacy, scalability, and security, the holy trinity for blockchain magic. It’s like adding a secret sauce to an already spicy dish.
87% odds
This tool is about bridging advanced cryptography with Cardano’s Plutus smart contract platform, enabling stuff like confidential transactions and membership proofs.
Imagine a digital fortress where your business secrets stay locked tight, but you still get to play the game smoothly.
So here we are, staring down the final stretch before the SEC’s verdict drops. 87% odds are a loud knock at Cardano’s door.
Whether you’re sipping coffee in a cubicle or plotting your next big move, Cardano’s march toward that ETF approval and its tech upgrades are moments worth watching.
