By: blockzeit|2025/05/15 05:15:05

Brave Wallet now supports ADA and other Cardano assets, thanks to its partnership with the Charles Hoskinson-led IO.Meanwhile, the crypto community negatively reacted to Cardano’s plan to allocate $275 million for its proposed budget plan for ecosystem growth.Cardano seems unrelenting in its expansion through strategic partnerships. Recently, Brave Wallet, the official cryptocurrency wallet of the privacy-first Brave browser, announced its support for ADA. The latest development comes hot on the heels of Cardano’s partnership with Brave Software through Input|Output (IO).The update revealed on May 12 not only offers ADA token compatibility with the Brave multi-chain wallet. It also opens the platform to other Cardano assets or tokens minted within the chain, like the popular Snek, World Mobile Token, Sugar Bush, Fluid Tokens, Revuto, and more.A Boost in Brave Wallet’s FeaturesAccording to Brendan Eich, CEO and co-founder of Brave and the Basic Attention Token (BAT), the partnership with Cardano underscores their company’s commitment to building a Web3 that maximizes interoperability at the benefit of users. In addition, he stated that the integration offers users better tools to engage with decentralized ecosystems.Besides the boost in accessibility and flexibility brought about by the multi-chain infrastructure, he claimed the new collaboration enhances security, governance participation, and user experience.Cardano and Brave Wallet’s Partnership is a ‘Natural Fit’For Charles Hoskinson, CEO of IO, the company behind the Cardano blockchain, the matchup is a “natural fit.” He explained that the partners’ vision aligns with their goal of making Web3 more secure, accessible, and “user-respecting.”Moreover, Hoskinson highlighted that the move paves the way for a new blockchain standard that truly empowers individuals, protects their privacy, and allows them to actively steer the direction of Cardano and Brave Wallet’s ecosystems. The partners believe that their progress opens up more possibilities for innovation that would soon trickle down to the ZK (zero knowledge)-infused Midnight side-chain.Cardano’s $225M Budget ProposalIn related news, Cardano recently proposed allocating $275 million worth of its funds to finance developments within its ecosystem. People’s reactions were mixed about the prospect. Some agreed, but others, like the pseudonymous Cardano Whale, opposed the measure. In fact, the popular crypto personality pointed out that he voted against it.The Cardano supporter considers the proposition to be wasteful and unnecessary. Likewise, he warned that the approval of the proposal would spell inflation, which could eventually dilute ADA’s price. Its poor implementation could also open Cardano to risks and fraudulent activities.Proponents of the proposal dispelled the Cardano advocate’s arguments. Some suggested that proper management procedures could cushion the ensuing sell pressure in the long run.Furthermore, Hoskinson asserted that the chain is in danger of falling behind if its community is unwilling to embrace calculated risks or “make some bigger bets.”The post Cardano Integrates With Brave Wallet As $275M ADA Allocation Plan Gains Flak appeared first on Blockzeit.

From Panic to Pumps: How Bitcoin Traders Are Playing the 2-Week US-Iran Ceasefire

For most people, the two-week US-Iran ceasefire is about geopolitics, oil prices, and whether World War III gets postponed. But for crypto traders glued to their screens late Sunday night, it was something else entirely: the clearest risk-on signal in months.

US-Iran Ceasefire Triggers Oil Plunge, Bitcoin Surge, and Gold Rally

Despite the sharp rally, caution is warranted. The $70,000–$72,000 zone has historically been strong resistance. The ceasefire is only temporary (two weeks), and any breakdown in negotiations could trigger a sell-off toward the $62,000–$65,000 support zone. For now, Bitcoin needs to close decisively above $72,500 to confirm a true breakout; failure to do so within 48–72 hours could lead to a swift retracement.
