    You look at more sophisticated proof systems, a lot of work has to be done but now is the time to invest that and there's a multi-million dollar collection of teams, Galway on us that are working on that and then on the sidechain side it allows very high volume apps that need very specific logic like the World Mobiles or the Midnights or these other things to actually run which takes load off of the main chain but actually continues to use Ada as the underlying asset and continues to create network value for Cardano.

    Hi Charles, any update on Midnight? So, the Midnight people will be attending, there are three major events for the this the rest of the year for Cardano, there is RareEvo. That's over in Colorado. There's going to be CNFTCon and that's over in Las Vegas and that's going to take place in September, October, where RareEvo is right at the end of August, September. And then there's the Cardano Summit that's taking place and I believe Dubai. And that's going to be in November, so.

    One of those events, or all of those events, there's going to be midnight people there. And lots to say about midnight. And actually, be a lot of fun to make a whiteboard video about some of the things there, but I definitely will talk about the sidechains frame. There's an enormous amount of goodness that's occurred. We can't wait to tell you.

    Eran Barak is the CEO of the midnight depco he's building that up and you know, he's kind of a silent figure right now. But eventually, he'll take a more public role, but a lot of good work, especially on the zero knowledge side and some of the really cool things that are being experimented with Pluto-Eris. Cucina has been finally fully realized and it's going to be a lot of fun to roll out the devnet because the programming language for midnight is very similar to TypeScript.

    Anyway, it is almost midnight here. Great AMA as always and I'm sorry that I haven't had a chance to do all my whiteboard videos yet, but I will do them over the weekend.

    Another part of my company can then also focus a lot on building on top of Cardano. Many of you are fans of and know of, for example, Midnight and you know of our real flight plans about getting real finance into the hands of people in Africa and other places in the world.

    Because Midnight it's going to be its own company. RealFi is going to be its own company. Our wallet Lace it's its own company. CEOs are hungry to get equity. They're fired up. They're ready to go. They want to go do some stuff. They want to build some stuff and then I can focus at the core and innovation and incubation.

    So I do believe in the coming years there's going to be an open source revolution for healthcare software and I do believe that concepts that have come out of the cryptocurrency space could be applied in the health industry in particular, I really believe that the technology we're building from Midnight that preserves data privacy and confidentiality can absolutely be applied to a EMR system. I also do believe that there's a great potential for concepts like the FEDIVERSE and the recent AT protocol that's replacing activity pub that the Twitter replacement that Jack Dorsey is working on could definitely be a useful play for medical records system.

    I thought Midnight was supposed to launch already. When in the hell did we ever give you a fucking date? Come on, man. No, the line must be drawn here.

  • 2023-05-25 "Cardano Update"
  • YouTube link

    So there's a lot of internal conversation about that right now, and there's actually a a large working project at that's a joint project between the Midnight project and the Cardano project, specifically about the types of curves to use.

    The last thing I'll mention, the sidechain side of things, the sidechains of the house, we're making very great progress. Midnight is forcing this because it's a sidechain. We have a great relationship partnership with World Mobile and they're doing a lot of really cool and interesting things.

  • YouTube link

    It'll be tethered to a lot of discussion about midnight, but the team is doing an excellent job and there's a lot of new tech that can be brought to market that would make Cardano, I think, the best platform in the industry for sidechains because it's that perfect connection of a lot of great ideas that that we've had.
