Cardano Foundation outlines ADA plans for 2023 – here are the key notes

Published

on

While the cryptocurrency market continues to struggle with the reverberations of the FTX crash, the Cardano (ADA) team is optimistic about its platform’s future, including the CEO of the Cardano Foundation, Frederik Gregaard.

Indeed, Gregaard expressed excitement over the plans for Cardano in 2023, which he believes will “really move the needle, both short-term and long-term,” as well as expecting the ecosystem to mature outside its community, as he told Learn Cardano’s Peter Bui in an interview published on November 15.

As he explained:

“There are so many things I’m excited about. There are certain integrations that I’m not able to talk about right now, but I’m hoping they will land because they will really move the needle, both short-term and long-term. But I think what I’m mainly excited about is to see Cardano maturing outside the people who know and love Cardano today because what we see around us is mayhem.”

Further listing the advantages of Cardano against the current mayhem, Gregaard said that the platform “keeps running, improving, implementing, and adding value in local communities, and we keep exploring new ways of building blockchain and implementing it around the world.”

Spreading the word and educating

Asked by the host what the community can do to help the platform thrive, the Cardano Foundation CEO said that the most important thing was to spread the word about Cardano’s use cases beyond token ownership:

“There is so little information about where blockchain truly adds value and (…) there are so many industries where we can move the needle, (…) save jobs, create new jobs, create a sustainable footprint, change operating models, but there’s so little information about those use cases.”

The second part is to “ensure that education [about blockchain] becomes much more available, consumable, and accessible in multiple languages and styles of delivery.” 

As he stressed, the Cardano Foundation would be “very happy to try and supply” the tools necessary for achieving this, including when volunteering for blockchain lessons in local communities, such as schools and workplaces.

Ecosystem keeps expanding

Meanwhile, Cardano has gone through many improvements over the past two years, including introducing smart contracts and scalability, recording an accelerated growth of its crypto wallets, and adding over 30,000 in a week, as Finbold reported.

It is also worth noting that Cardano is developing a new lightweight multi-chain crypto wallet called Lace, which promises to seamlessly link Web2 and Web3 elements into a single interface and which the team considers a game-changer.

At press time, Cardano’s ADA token was changing hands at the price of $0.3362, down 1.30% on the day and 6.49% across the week, as the decline of the cryptocurrency market starts to slow down after last week’s shock.

Fetch.ai says LA Hacks project MultiEval used specialist agents to test multi-agent delegation

Published

on

Fetch.ai said a winning LA Hacks project called MultiEval used its specialist AI agents to test how multi-agent systems should delegate work, with the system running a 50-agent simulation of the US economy overnight.

In a post on the company’s official X account, Fetch.ai described MultiEval as a project that used its specialist agents to evaluate other agents and improve an agent harness autonomously. The company said the setup ran through ASI:One and framed the process as “agents evaluating agents.”

How the LA Hacks project was described

According to Fetch.ai, MultiEval was used to test delegation inside multi-agent systems, with specialist agents helping run the benchmark and improve the harness used for the simulation. The company did not provide additional technical details in the post about the exact structure of the evaluation or the full scope of the overnight run.

The post adds to Fetch.ai’s broader LA Hacks presence, but the central claim is limited to the project’s use of specialist agents, the 50-agent simulation and the ASI:One workflow described by the company.

Fetch.ai also has a LA Hacks event page on its official site, which places the project in the context of its hackathon participation and agent-focused materials.

AI agents drove 16.2 million x402 transfers in 30 days

Published

on

AI agents initiated 16.2 million transfers through the x402 protocol over the past 30 days, according to a Token Terminal post. The data breaks down the activity across chains, with Base accounting for 9.5 million transfers and Polygon for 5.6 million.https://twitter.com/tokenterminal/status/2090165191489270116

The figures add fresh volume to x402, which describes itself as an internet-native payment standard for AI and agentic payments on its official dashboard. The headline metric points to measurable usage rather than a purely conceptual payment layer, although the data shown in the post is limited to transfers and does not by itself explain who the agents were or what kinds of payments they made.

The chain split also suggests the activity is concentrated rather than evenly distributed. Base led the tally by a wide margin, with Polygon also accounting for a large share of the reported transfers.

For now, the clearest takeaway is narrow but concrete: x402 is seeing repeated transfer activity from AI agents, and the recent count gives a cleaner snapshot of where that usage is showing up onchain.

Aptos launches Confidential APT with encrypted balances on mainnet

Published

on

Aptos said Confidential APT is now live on mainnet, bringing opt-in encrypted balances to the network while keeping wallet addresses visible. The feature is positioned for compliant use cases including payroll, treasury and business-to-business settlement.https://twitter.com/Aptos/status/2084481961553445096

The Aptos account said transactions are verified with zero-knowledge proofs, allowing the network to confirm that transfers are valid without exposing the underlying amounts. The update is meant for users who want confidentiality for specific transfers rather than full anonymity across the network.

A separate governance page tied to the rollout shows the proposal as executed, matching Aptos’ public statement that the feature has been enabled on mainnet. The material linked from that page describes Confidential APT as part of Aptos’ on-chain privacy features.

How the feature is framed on Aptos

According to Aptos, Confidential APT is opt-in, so users can still use standard transparent transfers if they prefer. The company’s framing focuses on enterprise and institutional settings where transaction amounts may need to be hidden while counterparties remain identifiable.

The launch adds a privacy layer at the transaction level, but it does not by itself indicate broader usage or adoption. It does, however, give Aptos a live mainnet mechanism for hiding balances on selected transfers.
