Prove you know a secret without revealing it.
That’s a zero-knowledge proof, and it’s one of the most useful ideas in cryptography.
Our new series explains how it works and shows how to run one on Cardano, one step at a time.

Intersect Administration Services Update 📊
On November 6, Intersect returned a further 21M ada from the Catalyst 2025 budget held in our Treasury Reserve Smart Contract.
With Catalyst administration moving from Input Output to the Cardano Foundation, the Fund 15 milestone e was cancelled and its funds returned.
The reason is recorded on-chain in the transaction itself 👇
cexplorer.io/tx/ce63f0c1139…
This brings the total Intersect has returned to the treasury to 21,115,172 ada, including 115,172 ada returned in October from a completed Product budget.

One more block before February to make this the best year for block production in HEPHY pool history.
Thanks to everyone who has supported the pool over the years, could have thrown the towel in after Year 2 but delegators and friends made along the way have kept me going 🤝

Who represents you in Cardano governance?
This November, Intersect Civics Committee is asking ADA holders to take a few minutes to check in on their DRep, review recent votes, and active DReps.
Keep your DRep or choose a new one. The choice is yours.

Interesting discussion, yeah, once this year finishes we won’t be doing treasury finding requests for these pavilions again.
Our plan was always to use treasury finding to help subsidise (but not fully pay) for these events after socialising the original proposal.
The hope was that projects would see the benefits enough to be able to justify putting more into future ones and reduce funding support gradually over time.
It’s just one of those things that happened where we got caught in the red due to Milestone payment dates and when ADA value dropped.
Before being funded, I used my own money for events for a couple years that were similar, as and when I could afford to, I am extremely lucky to be in a position where I could do this.
I am also aware of the fact that I am not under the same politics and maybe pressures/resistance that larger entities operating under different rules face in terms of decision making. So I don’t really want to compare our approach to anyone else’s. Or really bother anyone with broadcasts of how much we lost. I don’t expect anyone to care and I have always been so grateful for the opportunity and trust from the community to deliver these events.
There’s a lot that happens behind the scenes even for us to make sure that these pavilions comply with local regulations. The fact that 3 of the last 4 pavilions are in Dubai with recent tensions in Middle East has been a huge issue for participation and sadly one I cannot get out of and I completely understand why projects can’t or prefer not to attend them.
But I want to finish off these events in the right way and make the community proud regardless.
I am glad to see someone put forward a proposal that is doing something similiar to what I believed was the best way to approach Cardano summits a few years ago. (Not quite the same but a step in right direction) and probably a better approach with sentiment and price where it currently is.
Most are probably not aware as it doesn’t get communicated as such, but every event we have done has always come with an invite for CF to take our speaking slot on main stage and join us on the stand.
CF have always sent someone to support us and have gained some good leads from the events. We always promote the Cardano academy and even had over 200 developers sign up from Gitex Morrocco back in April.
The people I deal with at CF are always great and support us. Doesn’t mean I agree with all the decisions they make. But that is just par for the course.
Token2049 was an Emurgo initiative which CF took over after SecondFi incident.. even though I always thought the Emurgo proposal was waay too extravagant cost wise to the point where the law of diminishing returns was too dominant. Especially when they went back on their word and switched their vote to get the higher cost package at last minute, I appreciate CF taking over the role.
Got Bangalore tech summit in a couple weeks followed by blockchain life and Gitex global at beginning of December.
In January I should be able to have all the stats and KPIs to do a close out report for community. But just because the treasury funded pavilions have finished, doesn’t mean that the work does.
Anyway, nothing but love from me to you all and I still believe Cardano can be a real positive technology for the world!

Hi, Cardano! 👋
The last few weeks I've been working on

I have a renewed respect for all of you who participated on ention. 🥂
Chime in on the draft, if you have time, please.

Hey Cardano!
In this video I talk about the Dijkstra era, how it's roll-out plan looks like, who needs to be involved and when.
youtube.com/watch?v=k4x0eP…
If you are a CC memeber, a DRep or an SPO , this is for you.
Let me know if you have any questions or comments.
TLDR
- Join the conversation in the Constitution Ammendment Portal to help us shape the necesary constitution ammendement for Dijsktra and Leios 🖊️ cap.intersectmbo.org/#/detail/12
- When the time comes, vote YES on the Constitution update gov action (DReps and CCs)
- When you see the gov action to do the Hardfork, vote Yes

⚡️ New Governance section on the Cardano stake pool page!
Governance is at the heart of Cardano's decentralisation. It gives ADA holders the power to participate in decisions that shape the network's future, from protocol updates and parameter changes to treasury actions and the header for a glance at governance and SPO health
✅ Governance tab with more details.
With this new addition, you can explore key governance data points of SPOs, including:
📊 Vote Participation – Track participation across eligible governance actions.
🗳️ Vote Breakdown – See Yes, No and Abstain votes.
📌 Action Types – Understand the different governance actions being voted on by the SPO.
⚖️ Vote Weight – See the voting power involved in governance decisions.
Governance should be transparent, accessible and understood by everyone in the Cardano community. Because decentralisation isn't just about having a voice. It's about using it.
Stay informed. Participate. Help shape Cardano's future.
