In this edition, we highlight ADA’s inclusion in the newly announced U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve. Plus, IOG’s latest documentary captures the historic journey of the Cardano Blockchain Constitution.

On the technical side, SPO Table Talk explores the updated Staking Rewards Calculator, helping ADA holders better understand their returns and blockchain parameters. Meanwhile, Cardano Ambassador Peter Bui shares key ecosystem updates, including the CV Labs & Draper Accelerator programs and the Butane Synthetics launch.

All this and more in this week's Community Digest!

The delegate-endorsed Constitution is now live for all ada owners to vote on!

The governance action will be on-chain for the next 6 epochs (approximately one month) and requires 75% of delegated stake to pass.

Delegate to a DRep (or become one yourself) and make your voice heard on this monumental foundational document

Cardano is unlike any other.

Hi all, as 21:44 UTC, the first community-enacted hard fork is now in effect on Cardano mainnet! Cardano is firmly in the hands of the community and ada owners.

When the community leads, innovation follows. If you haven't delegated to a DRep (or wish to vote directly as a DRep yourself), now is the time. See https://gov.tools to learn more.

Cardano’s governance isn’t about one path forward—it’s about a network of minds shaping the road together. Exciting times ahead.
