Cardano 2023 upcoming developments
Improved developer experience thanks to Aiken smart contract platform. Interesting alternatives include Eopsin, Helios, Plutarch, Plu-ts, Scalus. Developers can step away from Plutus Tx. Smart contract development gets easier and smart contracts become much smaller.

Thoughts on the current state of Cardano ADA?
There are also libraries for Python-like https://github.com/ImperatorLang/eopsin & Rust-like https://github.com/aiken-lang/aiken under community development.

Aiken new language is best good news in very long time I have heard, proofs decentralisation & could protect us from Gensler SEC securities cornering .
Pretty cool. I'm assuming this is your project. Here's the github link for those attempting to run this language at home
- Aiken, a new programming language for Cardano, could make smart contracts more resource and energy efficient! We discuss how this could drive growth of Cardano dApps.

Steel Man Why Cardano Fails
I hate Haskell a lot. I'm really optimistic for projects like Helios.

What are the most exciting initiatives going on right now to improve the Cardano developer experience?
One of the most exciting projects imo is Helios. If Cardano is to compete with other smart blockchains, we must move away from Haskell. I consider Plutus (Tx) being Haskell-based to be a serious design flaw of Cardano's developer experience. Plutus itself is inefficient and poorly thought out. Plutarch is much more well designed, even though it's still Haskell based.
