Oh, I didn't know it was much worse before...
They trade 230+ cryptos on RevX, but they don't say how many of them can actually be withdrawn to an external address.
As of now, provided it doesn't change in the future, **we can** withdraw the followings: BTC, ETH, DOGE, LITE, UNI, AVAX, SOL, DOT, XRP and probably some others which I'm not aware of.
We, however, **can not** withdraw TON, TRX, SUI, ADA, ARB and probably many many more.
So, if you plan buying and withdrawing anything, better check in advance that it is even possible. You can buy €0.1 worth of that respective asset and check if you see it in the "Withdraw/Send crypto" list.

I’m seeing a lot of posts saying 2026 could be more of an altcoin year, especially if $BTC turns more institutional and less wild.
A “2026 powerlist” that keeps popping up has the same names: $XRP $ETH $SOL $WBT $ZEC $ADA $XMR
If BTC holds up, the usual rotation is BTC →majors (ETH/SOL/XRP) → smaller caps.
What’s your top pick for 2026 and why?

Ergo is its own project, the ties to ADA are there but it isn't something that big like people imagine, yes they have funding that came from ADA catalyst, but the funding was only approved because it bennefited both blockchains, like Rosen Bridge connecting Ergo with all major blockchains and per consequence also ADA gets connected. Ergo has a very big infrastruture built already it just misses liquidity being brought to it, but the infrastructure is there and contimues to be built agressively despite the price drop, that's something that clearly distinguishes ERGO.

Ergo needs to stop being so tied to ADA, at least conceptually

Hey r/Cardano!
As we kick off 2026, the buzz around *Ouroboros Leios* is heating up – this could be the game-changer Cardano needs for massive throughput without sacrificing decentralization. Here's a quick, neutral breakdown based on the latest updates from IOG and Intersect:
**What is Leios?**
Leios (or Ouroboros Leios) is Cardano's next-gen consensus upgrade, building on Ouroboros Praos. It introduces a two-tier block system: "input/endorsement blocks" for parallel processing and "ranking blocks" for a single linear chain. This decouples transaction inclusion from final ordering, aiming to boost base-layer TPS from current levels (\~10-20 TPS) to **300–1,000+ TPS based on simulations, with potential for up to 10,000 TPS in optimized scenarios** while keeping PoS security intact.
**Latest Progress (as of mid-Jan 2026):**
* CIP-0164 has been finalized and merged as of January 6, 2026, providing the blueprint for the two-tier system to reduce MEV risks and enhance scalability.
* Overall implementation tracker is at \~67% completion, with active work on specs, simulations, and prototypes.
* Simulations show **30-50x throughput gains** under normal conditions (up to 60x in some projections), with a dedicated testnet planned before mainnet rollout (likely Q1-Q2 2026).
* Ties into broader 2026 roadmap: Complements Hydra, Mithril, and Minotaur for full Voltaire-era maturity.
**Why It Matters for Cardano:**
This isn't just about speed – Leios positions Cardano as an enterprise-ready blockchain, potentially driving TVL growth, more dApps, and ADA adoption. With recent governance wins (like the ratification of the Net Change Limit extension and Curia elections restoring the Constitutional Committee), the ecosystem feels more robust than ever.
Check out the official Leios development tracker for real-time updates: [https://leios.cardano-scaling.org/](https://leios.cardano-scaling.org/)
**What do you think** – will Leios finally silence the "ghost chain" critics? How might it impact your favorite Cardano projects? Share your takes below! Let's discuss. 📈

I’m seeing a lot of posts saying 2026 could be more of an altcoin year, especially if [$BTC](https://) turns more institutional and less wild.

A “2026 powerlist” that keeps popping up has the same names:
[$XRP](https://) [$ETH](https://) [$SOL](https://) [$WBT](https://) [$ZEC](https://) [$ADA](https://) [$XMR](https://)

If BTC holds up, the usual rotation is BTC → majors (ETH/SOL/XRP) → smaller caps.

What’s your top pick for 2026 and why?

I’m seeing more discussions suggesting 2026 could lean more toward altcoins, especially if BTC becomes more institutional and less volatile.
A “2026 powerlist” that keeps popping up across trader conversations includes:
XRP, ETH, SOL, WBT, ZEC, ADA, XMR.
If BTC holds its trend, the usual rotation tends to be:
BTC → major alts → broader altcoins.
Curious to hear different views —
what’s your top pick for 2026, and why?

As long as you have your recovery seed phrase it doesn't matter. You ADA doesn't get stored in a wallet interface.

Trying to find my ADA, it is most likely in this wallet but I don’t know which Cardano wallet/app this is… TIA

Hi… when you stake on Phantom, etc., do you give up control of your crypto? Does it need to be sent somewhere to stake or do you keep your coins and it’s only a smart contract (like ADA)? Thank you

If you think about it, just look at ETH versus ADA.
Charles Hoskinson talks nonstop about governance, “real” decentralization, academic papers, proof of stake, privacy chains… all the buzzwords you can imagine. Supposedly all about real-world use, yet the network TVL is basically nonexistent.
Vitalik, on the other hand, is like “I don’t care, I’ll fix problems as they come.” The focus is simply on building and letting real usage grow. And what sits on top of Ethereum? AAVE and Chainlink, billions of dollars in TVL and the largest blockchain oracle out there.
So honestly, who’s actually winning here?

All coins will pump if an altseason comes, ADA will pump. All shitcoins will pump.
