ETH-ADA Token Bridge

Norway-based cloud computing platform Iagon announced the launch of its Ethereum-Cardano bridge last week. The beta version of the bridge is live. The bridge is powered by Cardano sidechain protocol Milkomedia and the cross-chain messaging protocol Nomad. ADA has shot up nearly 15% over a seven-day period. 

Iagon announced a UI bug bounty for the bridge on Monday, which will continue until July 15. Rewards up to $1,000 will be paid in Cardano. Rewards vary on the severity of bugs discovered.

Cardano On The Web

Hoskinson said in a recent interview that the collapse of Terra Classic (LUNC) and TerraClassicUSD (USTC) should be seen as an endorsement of the go-slow approach taken by Cardano.

“If you move too quickly, as we’ve seen with Luna, and we’ve seen with $10.5 billion of hacks last year, you could actually get it to work until it doesn't, and then when it doesn’t it’s a catastrophic failure and everybody loses their money,” said Hoskinson, reported CoinDesk.
