GM Cardano, I’m Lloyd Duhon. It is the 21st of August 2023 here are your top stories from the weekend:

Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard claims that enterprise blockchain dead. In a recent interview with Swiss Bank Dukascopy at the Crypto Valley Conference He explained 


Blockchain will continue to move into the enterprise computing stack for many years as tooling that encourages collaboration through permissionless and trustless interactions will make it easier for enterprise companies to complete their core missions.

During a Meld hosted Ask me Anything session on March 8th a community member asked Daniel Kung, Meld’s CEO what Meld was releasing on Cardano, To that Daniel Replied…


It is important to note that Meld ran the first ever successful ISPO on Cardano, attracting 1 billion USD worth of delegation, which raised 10 million dollars for the company. Additional token sales to date have raised 45 million dollars total for Meld.

On Friday, Strica announced that Ledger Live Cardano Staking integration is now launched. This closes out another community funded project from Catalyst Fund 9. 330,000 dollars from the Cardano treasury was spent to complete this integration which includes full Cardano Native Assets support and a Cardano Dapp browser. Originally slated to finish at the end of 2022, the delays in integration were due to a rewrite of the Ledger Live codebase to Typescript.


The Aiken team has released Aiken v1.0.15 which contains bug fixes for opaque types and changes up the blueprint command, and the traverse with tree parameters.


Josh and Rob of the Cornucopias team shared a leak on CopiCafe #63 of their upcoming mining feature. They shared that the feature will have a playable demo at the Rare Evo conference in Denver this week.
