Marcos aide with contractor ties quits DOJ
MANILA, Philippines — Justice Undersecretary Jose “Jojo” Cadiz Jr. has tendered his resignation, Palace press officer Undersecretary Claire Castro told a press conference on Friday, December 5.
Cadiz is a longtime aide of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with ties to a two-year-old construction company that bagged hundreds of millions of pesos worth of projects in Ilocos Norte, Cadiz’s and the Marcoses’ home province.
“Sa ating pagkakaalam, siya po ay nagsubmit na ng kanyang resignation (As far as I know, he has submitted his resignation),” Castro said, when asked if Cadiz continues to enjoy the President’s trust and if he will remain with the Department of Justice (DOJ).
As of posting time, Castro could not provide the details of Cadiz’s resignation, or if it had been accepted by Acting Justice Secretary Fredderick Vida.

Cadiz was appointed to the post in 2022, just over a month after Marcos assumed the presidency. Cadiz hails from Ilocos Norte, the bailiwick of the Marcoses, and has extensive ties to not just the President, but the Marcos clan, based on Rappler’s research.
He was part of the President’s legislative team when he served in the Senate. Cadiz had also been tapped by the President’s sister, Senator Imee Marcos, to handle Ilocos Norte’s legal affairs, when the latter was governor.
A Rappler investigation found that a construction company incorporated in 2023 by his then-19-year-old-son bagged at least P250 million in projects in Ilocos Norte.
The 1987 Constitution explicitly prohibits officials of the executive, to include undersecretaries, from being “directly or indirectly…financially interested” in a government contract.
Asked if Marcos had known or had been since made aware of Cadiz’s ties to a major construction firm, Castro said, “We have not talked about that but if there’s a need for investigation on that issue let the investigation be done.”
Former House appropriations chairperson Zaldy Co had earlier accused Cadiz of acting as a bagman for Marcos. – Rappler.com

Mono Protocol Raises $2M in Private Round and Opens Whitelist: Here’s How Its Unified Balances and Universal Accounts Will Reshape Web3
The post Mono Protocol Raises $2M in Private Round and Opens Whitelist: Here’s How Its Unified Balances and Universal Accounts Will Reshape Web3 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The way people use blockchain today often feels complicated. Balances are scattered across different networks, bridging takes time and money, and users constantly switch wallets and chains to complete simple actions. Mono Protocol is building a new foundation for Web3 that unifies these experiences. With unified balances, instant settlement, and universal accounts, it aims to make blockchain interactions feel seamless. The project has raised $2M in a Private Round and is now running whitelist registration ahead of the presale. Mono Protocol: Solving Web3’s Biggest Problem With a Unified Design Today’s blockchain space struggles with fragmentation. Users maintain balances across several chains, bridges are slow and expensive, and front-running risks cause value loss. Developers face the added challenge of building infrastructure for multiple networks, making the experience complex on both sides. Mono Protocol addresses these issues with chain abstraction technology. By unifying per-token balances, it allows users to hold and use assets from any supported blockchain in one place. Transactions are protected with MEV-resistant routing, ensuring value is preserved during execution. Liquidity Lock technology guarantees that transactions cannot fail, which is a major step forward compared to traditional cross-chain systems. This combination creates a new standard for blockchain interaction. Developers gain access to simple APIs to build cross-chain applications without handling infrastructure overhead, while users enjoy one-click transactions across multiple ecosystems. It marks a shift from fragmented networks to a cohesive Web3 environment where complexity is invisible. One Balance, One Account, One Experience Mono Protocol introduces unified balances, instant settlement, and universal accounts that work across blockchains. This approach makes transactions simpler, faster, and free of the friction users often face today. Instead of managing assets on multiple networks, users interact with a single account and one balance. Liquidity Locks ensure transactions are guaranteed and completed instantly, while universal accounts remove…
