So 300 doubles your position?
If u bought a coin at 1000 why not at 300?
Im not an ADA guy just taking out of logic

Send it to a CEX, which will practically burn it, while unlocking the little bit of ADA the scammer had to send it attached on, and the CEX will deposit that ADA into your account.

If all the guns were seized at the same time, location and incident... It's likely to still just be one count of firearm by felon. At least in my jurisdiction.
And before I get mad comments, yes I know it doesn't make sense, but it is what it is. I've gone rounds with ADA's about it. My argument being "if we have five dead guys, how many murders is it?" It still doesn't work that way.
Body armor in commission of a felony *may* be a sentence enhancer.
Feds ain't going to pick this up, unless old boy is on FedProb.
This guy realistically could get split sentence, time served/probation.

It’s a good measure of how overvalued and underused ADA is

ADA is valued at $16 million market cap per daily transaction lol. For comparison Solana is at $400 market cap per daily transaction.

It's silly to argue something so basic and that uses a 40 year old programming language is advanced in the modern tech space. Advanced compared to Bitcoin, maybe, which is still arguable since at least Bitcoin solved some hard tech problems.
Cardano still has no resolution to congestion. In 2026. It just has never had any. Griefing DeFi would become so profitable under the current fee scheme if there was only any DeFi or activity to grief.
Congestion is nearly every blockchain's core problem-area they dedicate most their time solving, it's what makes or breaks them and sets each one apart.
Except Cardano never had to figure congestion out because UTXO (a choice for sure) prohibits 99% of use cases and applications from making any sense, so it's a moot problem. Intentionally handicapping yourself from having on-chain utility in the several ways I mentioned and claiming you're advanced is laughable. It can't even run a proper DEX... I can't think of any simpler or better use case for a blockchain than that.
What argument is there Cardano is "advanced"? All I see is Charles making a long series BAD already provably dead end design choices, doubling down until things literally break, then copying R&D off something else until things /just/ work at the bare minimum to claim it works.
Spaghetti isn't advanced. Charles would have done better if his ego wasn't so inflated and he scrapped ADA the first year researchers were telling him he's wrong, and then starting over from scratch. But instead we have whatever this is. $2M daily DEX volume and most of that is going off-chain.

At least some of them have some user activity to speak of, ADA does nothing. I have never met someone who ones ADA and has used the blockchain for anything besides trading tokens.

What is CafeADA? What is the CardanoCafe ADA reward event?

ADA 🗑️

would only be worried about ADA,
just stop looking at the price every day and keep going with ur life
eventually one month it's gonna blow up X3 or x10 for no reason
that's when you get out eventually, when it feels really painful it's a good spot to DCA eth and BTC because they are majors and won't go to zero. remember eth 2030 cycle target is 16k in theory...

It's still rare to find businesses willing to accept crypto but I have bought all sorts of things online with crypto over the years, BTC or ADA mainly.

I stake XRP and DOGE but I'm planning to add ADA soon

For sure, I get you, it’s easy to get lost with all the coins out there. I mostly just dabble with BTC and ETH, sometimes throw a little at ADA or other smaller stuff. I’ve mostly been using Stake for quick crypto bets here and there. Works well enough, but those ones seem more likely to last than a bunch of the hyped up projects.

I've been involved with crypto since 2019, and only really started investing in 2020-2021. Even back then, it felt like I read some big news about Cardano every week… and nothing's happened since. I reliably hold onto my 12,000 ADA, but otherwise, I'm staying away. It's always a lot of talk about nothing, new updates here, implementations there, new partners, and so on… where's the success?

Got into the coins mid 2025. Cost averaging. Betting on ADA, BTC, ETH, PAXG, SOL, XAUT, XAUT, XLM, XRP some PDAX Gold.

Bought a bit more during the "crash" last week.
Now I took a breather. Waiting. Loading up. Looking for the proper time to buy more.
I plan to have 10% of my entire investment portfolio in crypto by next year.

With all that is happening in the world, I don't think that crypto will "zero".
I could be wrong.

There's been a lot of focus on individual pieces (USDCx, Leios, L2s), but let's talk about how they're all converging at once.
**What's Actually Shipping:**
**Stablecoins:**
* USDCx coming to Midnight (privacy-enabled)
* USDM already live (overcollateralized, transparent)
* fGLD live (first fungible RWA)
**Scaling:**
* Leios upgrade (30-50x throughput on L1, Aiming for 10.000 TPS)
* Midgard L2 (shared execution layer, sub-3s blocks)
* Hydra (optimized for speed and low latency)
**Infrastructure:**
* Professional market-making tools going live (Surge)
* Cross-DEX execution becoming viable
* Automated liquidity management
For years, Cardano's critique was "ghost chain" - solid tech, no activity. The missing piece wasn't technology, it was **professional liquidity infrastructure**.
Projects couldn't compete because:
* No stablecoin liquidity
* Limited throughput
* Amateur market-making
* No professional tooling
That gap is closing and it's closing fast.
**The Sleeper Angle:**
USDC coming to Cardano puts competitive pressure on Tether.
Will USDT watch USDC dominate Cardano's stablecoin market, or will they enter to compete? Competition drives adoption. More stablecoin options = deeper liquidity = more DeFi activity.
Same logic applies to other chains watching Cardano's infrastructure mature. Nobody wants to be left out when things start moving.
**Real-World Assets:**
fGLD is live. Tokenized gold, liquid, tradeable, decoupled from ADA volatility. If this works (professional liquidity + institutional interest), more RWAs follow.
The template is being built right now.
**Our Honest Take:**
This doesn't guarantee success. Infrastructure alone doesn't create adoption, you need users, capital, and applications people actually want.
But for the first time in Cardano's history, the **infrastructure gap is closing**. Projects can finally compete on execution, not just promise.
Leios + stablecoins + L2s + professional tooling = the stack institutional DeFi actually requires.
**2026 is going to be interesting.**
What pieces are you most excited about? Where do you still see gaps?

Sorry to hear you have this experience.
You may want to consider if selling ADA and LINK and reinvesting in ETH could be a good idea. There’s a good chance they won’t recover even when ETH and BTC recover.
I also wouldn’t add more to loosing positions, but I just never DCA, I would wait for trend reversal if I want to add more. And I’d also rather diversify to some other asset class.
Looking forward, you need to learn using Stop Loss and basics of technical analysis to become better at managing your investments.
