🔍 TxPipe Completes 14 Protocol Audits Across Cardano in 2025

TxPipe released its 2025 security recap, revealing an intense year of protocol-level work across the Cardano ecosystem. The team conducted 14 comprehensive audits, analyzed 152 core smart contract files, and identified 326 total findings, including 81 minor, 50 major, and 69 critical issues.

This work directly strengthens Cardano’s security foundations. By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, TxPipe helps ensure that core infrastructure and widely used contracts remain resilient as adoption grows.

The scale of this effort highlights Cardano’s proactive security culture. Continuous auditing, deep protocol knowledge, and independent review remain key pillars as the ecosystem expands into DeFi, identity, and institutional use cases.

📈 Cardano Ranks Top 10 in Social Attention Growth in 2025

New data from LunarCrush shows a notable signal forming beneath the surface. In 2025, Cardano ranked as the 7th largest attention gainer, with social activity up 45 percent.

This places Cardano ahead of XRP (40 percent), Solana (25 percent), and more than double Bitcoin’s growth (22 percent), all during a period when most altcoin prices remain heavily depressed.

Rising attention without price expansion often reflects growing awareness, discussion, and ecosystem engagement. It suggests that interest in Cardano is building quietly, driven by fundamentals, development progress, and long-term narratives rather than short-term speculation.

⚡ Strike Finance Passes 1B ADA in Lifetime Volume

Midnight continues to accelerate. In just over seven months, the Midnight testnet has produced more than 3,000,000 blocks and processed 560,000+ transactions, showing sustained and growing builder activity.

These metrics confirm that developers are already stress-testing the network, pushing functionality, and preparing real applications ahead of mainnet. At the same time, scaling mechanisms are actively coming online as Midnight enters its final pre-launch phase.

With mainnet now clearly in sight, Midnight is transitioning from experimentation to execution. The pace of activity signals strong momentum for Cardano’s privacy layer as it moves toward real-world deployment.
