Grayscale Cardano ETF decision postponed
Grayscale submitted its application to convert its Cardano trust into a spot ETF in February 2025, and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed the final decision date to October 22, 2025. Although the delay may bring short-term uncertainty, the market generally believes that if the ETF is approved, it will lead to a significant influx of institutional funds into ADA, further driving up its price.
Midnight Airdrop
Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, announced that through its privacy-oriented sidechain project Midnight, it will airdrop NIGHT (governance token) and DUST (privacy transaction token) to 37 million addresses across 8 major blockchains. This airdrop, known as Glacier Drop, aims to promote cross-chain collaboration and emphasize fairness, with no tokens reserved for venture capital firms. The plan is expected to go live on the mainnet by the end of 2025 and may become an important factor in driving the growth of the ADA ecosystem.
