Overview
Intersect News is the official news feed of Intersect, the group that coordinates how Cardano is governed and how its shared software gets built. It is the place to follow decisions the community is making, from committee elections to network upgrades, straight from the organization at the center of that work1. Because these updates come from the group doing the coordinating, readers get a first-hand account rather than second-hand reporting.
Intersect is a member-run organization that people in the Cardano community join, and it helps run the elected committees and processes that guide the network's direction2. The news feed is Cardano-focused throughout. It does not cover other blockchains, so everything here stays close to Cardano's own decision-making and development.
Key Features
- Weekly governance roundup. A numbered update publishes most weeks, summarizing recent progress and linking out to the meetings, reports, and dashboards behind each item3.
- Plain-language explainers. Standalone articles break down elections, network upgrades, and community voting for readers who want the background, not just the headline1.
- First-hand source. Updates come directly from Intersect, the organization coordinating Cardano governance, rather than from an outside news outlet4.
- Cardano-only focus. Every article stays on Cardano governance and the programs Intersect helps organize, so the feed is a tight, single-topic resource.
- Program and grant announcements. Notices about community grants, incubation programs, and the tools people use to take part appear as they happen5.
What to Expect
A reader visiting Intersect News finds a running list of articles, led by the weekly update series and joined by longer pieces whenever there is an election, a network upgrade, or a new program to explain. The weekly posts follow a steady, numbered rhythm and read like a briefing: a short summary of what moved that week, followed by links to the meetings, votes, and reports behind each point. The standalone articles go deeper on single topics, such as how a committee election works or what a coming upgrade changes, and they tend to assume the reader wants to participate, not just watch.
The tone throughout is practical and community-facing rather than promotional. Because Intersect coordinates the groups that steer Cardano, the news it shares often includes concrete calls to act, such as candidate lists to review, votes that are open, budget discussions underway, or programs accepting applications. Most articles point outward to the dashboards, forums, and documents where the actual work happens, so the feed doubles as a starting map for anyone trying to find their way into Cardano governance.
The most reliable way to keep up is to check the website or follow Intersect on X and LinkedIn, since there is no working email or RSS feed at this time. For readers who want the full background behind an update, Intersect also runs a separate documentation portal and a governance section that the news articles frequently link to5.
