Testnet’s Gone. Off the Map. The Testnet ride is officially over. Everything you minted - NFTs, tokens, unlocked mints - is safe and sound, but new Testnet minting is no longer happening. Expect smoother performance, smarter tools, and upgrades that actually make a difference for builders, creators, and the whole Cardano community.
October 2025 // Here’s the vibe across the network right now: what’s stable, what’s building, and what’s worth keeping an eye on.
Market Pulse // ADA’s been cruising between $0.80 and $0.95 for a while. Price isn’t spiking, but behind the scenes, bigger wallets are quietly stacking - the foundation’s solid. If ADA can push past the dollar mark, there’s room to ride toward $1.20 +. If it can’t, it’ll likely hang around $0.75 – $0.80 before the next push.
Tech & Protocol Moves // Leios, Hydra, Mithril, and governance upgrades are all progressing. Faster blocks, lighter nodes, smarter coordination - Cardano is leveling up behind the scenes. A $71M treasury boost just went live for core development, showing the community is all in on long-term growth.
Staking opened up for U.S. users on eToro too, making it easier for new folks to get involved and earn while they build.
What’s Next // Eyes are on potential ADA ETFs this quarter - any movement could shake up market attention. Meanwhile, new projects are popping up everywhere: cross-chain bridges, DeFi tools, payment rails - Cardano’s ecosystem is alive and growing. Some see ADA heading toward $1.20 - $1.50 if momentum builds, but the real story is the long-term foundation: stronger network, smarter tools, and a community that keeps pushing forward.
