🍩 SundaeSwap LPs Qualify for $NIGHT via Glacier Drop

Liquidity providers on SundaeSwap v3 received a pleasant surprise. Users who were providing $ADA liquidity on June 11 have qualified for $NIGHT allocations as part of the Glacier Drop.

This distribution directly rewards on-chain participation rather than passive holding. By recognizing active liquidity provision, the Glacier Drop reinforces the idea that meaningful engagement on Cardano is increasingly tied to tangible ecosystem benefits.

Claims open on January 30, making it worth checking eligibility for anyone active on SundaeSwap v3 during that period.

💧 FluidTokens Temporarily Boosts ADA Lending Yields to 6%

FluidTokens has launched a targeted incentive program, temporarily boosting $ADA lending yields to 6% APY by subsidizing returns with protocol fees.

The structure is deliberately controlled. Incentives accrue automatically, the program is capped at 10 million ADA TVL, and it runs for a defined three-month window, encouraging liquidity supply without creating long-term distortions.

This approach strengthens Cardano’s lending markets while keeping incentives sustainable. It’s a practical example of how protocol-level design can increase capital efficiency and user participation without excessive emissions.

🧑‍💻 Cardano Foundation Releases 2025 Developer Ecosystem Survey

The Cardano Foundation has published the 2025 State of the Cardano Developer Ecosystem Survey, offering a data-driven look at how builders are actually working today.

The survey includes responses from 109 developers, most with seven or more years of professional experience. Results show a strong preference for reliability-focused languages, with Aiken emerging as the dominant smart contract tool.

Key priorities stand out clearly: identity, DeFi, stablecoins, and core infrastructure, while scalability and documentation remain top needs. This kind of grounded feedback provides valuable guidance for shaping Cardano’s next technical and ecosystem decisions.
