Welcome back to ThinkGrowCryptoMedia! Your Cardano-biased, news media outlet for your blockchain-knowledge needs.

Have you heard? Cardano will be cutting the minPoolCost in half. Whether or not this change will be crucial for smaller stake pool operators to thrive and to ensure a more inclusive environment is about to be put to the test.

Let’s get into it 👇

 📊 Cardano Ecosystem Stats

🚀 Cardano Headlines

Let's say you're a developer, and you've been eyeing the blockchain space for your next big DApp.

You stumble upon Midnight, and it clicks — this is what you've been looking for.

You're concerned about user privacy because, let's face it, data leaks are all too common, and you don't want your app to be the next headline.

With Midnight, you see the chance to do things differently.

Their platform lets you create applications where users can interact, exchange, or even make purchases without spilling their secrets.

For instance, if Alice wants to buy an e-book, she can do so without revealing what title caught her fancy to the whole network.

Her purchase is her business, and that’s something you respect.

What seals the deal for you is how Midnight handles compliance.

You won't have to navigate the legal maze alone; the platform is designed to play nice with data protection laws.

And the cherry on top?
You can dive in with TypeScript, a language you're already buddies with.

It’s not just about building an app; it’s about being part of a movement that respects user privacy.

While this is all yet very theoretical it feels like a breath of fresh air in the blockchain world. Read more here.
