Cardano Foundation Partners with SERPRO, Brazil’s Largest Government Tech Provider

The Cardano Foundation has formed a partnership with SERPRO (Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados), Brazil’s largest state-owned information technology company. This collaboration aims to drive blockchain adoption across Brazil’s public sector and enhance digital infrastructure through education and innovation.

SERPRO, responsible for managing 33 billion transactions annually and operating more than 30.4 petabytes of data, plays a key role in Brazil’s government operations. 

A major highlight of this initiative is the Cardano Academy program, designed to provide blockchain education and certification to SERPRO’s 8,000 employees, including 2,000 developers. This marks the first time SERPRO has partnered with an international organization for blockchain education, setting a precedent for future adoption in Latin America. Read more

Minswap Introduces Zero Batcher Fees, Reducing Costs for Users

In a game-changing move for Cardano DeFi, Minswap, the largest DEX by volume, has announced zero batcher fees for transactions on its platform.

What are batcher fees?

Batcher fees are costs paid by users to entities responsible for submitting transactions on Cardano. While necessary in the past, Minswap is now eliminating these fees, making DeFi more accessible and affordable for all users. This makes trading on Minswap more cost-efficient. Users keep more of their assets instead of paying batcher fees. This update improves the user experience and makes Minswap an even more attractive DEX for traders looking to swap assets on Cardano.
