YesReduce the committeeMinSize parameter from 7 to 5Epoch 642RationaleRatified1mo ago

Reduce to create less friction in the process.

YesIO: HydraEpoch 642RationaleRatified21d ago

Push Hydra forward. With Cardano's scale comes real utility. Security and decentralization were the right things to focus on to begin with and continue to be. But Scalability is in sight and should get pushed through fast.

YesTweag Core Cardano Infrastructure: Treasury Withdrawal 2026–2027Epoch 641RationaleEnacted1mo ago

Critical to get Peras V1 to mainnet and increase the finality time. Enhancing everything about the network from security to scalability

Yes5am.earth Trust Layer Targeting Vision 2030 KPIsEpoch 640RationaleEnacted1mo ago

For 2.86% of the NCL , This is a risky bet but if proven to be successful could be massively beneficial. This is a hard one for me but am willing to take the high risk, high reward approach to this measure given the longer time horizon as well. Please Prove me right 5am.earth

NoRare Evo and Dev Gov Day 2026: Cardano Title SponsorshipEpoch 640RationaleExpired1mo ago

No. We need core infrastructure and New revenue streams. Cardano is well known enought, The Rare Evo team is a strong team but just doesn't make sense atm.

YesCardano Critical Integrations V2Epoch 639RationaleEnacted1mo ago

Enhance the Plutus scripts and bring new V3 capabilities into play. I support Van Rossem and this critical parameter upgrade.

YesEternl: Path to Sustainability (2026-2027)Epoch 638RationaleExpired1mo ago

I trust the team of Eternl to deliver and has been a critical part of the ecosystem from nearly day 1. They deserve a treasury request and have high confidence for them to deliver.

NoScalus: Cardano’s Application Platform for Building, Launching, and ScalingEpoch 637RationaleExpired1mo ago

Not critical right now. Infastructure and usage is the most important part of the equation and fiscal responsibility

YesCardano Vision 2026: Human Centred, Scalable, Post Quantum Secure - IO ResearchEpoch 637RationaleEnacted1mo ago

Absolutely Critical to continue the research on Cardano. Future proofing for high security is no option

NoCardano dOSPO and OMF ProgramEpoch 637RationaleExpired1mo ago

No, Fiscal responsibility is critical right now. Cardano is the decentralization and we must fund other critical proposals ATM.

YesPogun: Capital Without CompromiseEpoch 633RationaleExpired1mo ago

Huge revenue generating platform that will bring sustained income to the Cardano Treasury. Cardano is positioned to be the DEFI layer for Bitcoin. To do it natively is the key and they will deliver.

NoBlockfrost: Maintenance and Next Generation IndexingEpoch 633RationaleExpired1mo ago

Blockfrost is a self sustaining Entity and can make due without treasury compensation ATM. Blockfrost does great work and will continue to be praised for the work they do but with the fiscal responsibility aspect of the Cardano Treasury they will be able to continue to operate without funding

NoIO & Midgard Labs: L2 Scalability InitiativeEpoch 633RationaleExpired1mo ago

Leios is what is critical now for scalability for the main chain. With Gummi worm and Hydra this takes a step back for absolute critical infrastructure. The midgard labs team is highly competent but once again considering the fiscal nature of the treasury, must be held off for now.

NoCardano Summit 2026 and TOKEN2049 SingaporeEpoch 630RationaleExpired2mo ago

Abstain but UPDATED to NO: Changing my vote officially to No. We need to build up Cardano Defi. Cardano is the compliance. If we have something good or unique the enterprises will come.

YesPebble + Gerolamo - HLabs 2026 BudgetEpoch 628RationaleExpired3mo ago

Now is the time to implement and take the lead while the other chains and industry struggle. Push forward now and grow the treasury revenue streams through infrastructure that will lead to more future use. Fiscal responsibility is critical at the moment as well and future endeavors will continue to become more scrutinized until treasury revenue picks up

YesApprove Cardano Foundation as New Managing Entity of Project CatalystEpoch 626RationaleClosed3mo ago

Approve the CF takeover of Catalyst to ensure the protocol/project is efficient and driving everything we need.

YesDingo: a Production-Grade Block Producer in Go by Blink LabsEpoch 625RationaleEnacted3mo ago

Node diversity is very important and with Dingo already in full production the time is now to fund these endeavors as other blockchain projects lay off and lose resources. Lets push the tech and code stack even further

YesCardano Defi Liquidity Budget - Withdrawal 1Epoch 625RationaleEnacted3mo ago

Liquidity is desperately needed in the Cardano ecosystem. Another great boost for Cardano while other chains continue to strain.

YesCardano x Draper Dragon: Orion FundEpoch 624RationaleEnacted3mo ago

More exposure, more real developement, More users. Fully support the Draper Dragon Orion Fund.

Yes, to have a framework for the Cardano Budget

Yes to withdrawl DeFI liquidity budget

YesName Protocol Version 11 hard fork - van RossemEpoch 613RationaleClosed5mo ago

In honor of a Cardano Hero.

YesNet Change Limit (Epoch 613 to Epoch 713)Epoch 612RationaleClosed6mo ago

This is a Yes for me. These are the most important years for Cardano, Setting a limit doesn't mean we need to meet the cap and spend all available. I think in this 18 month window we need fire power when needed. Approving the NCL for this period does just that. That being said, NCL and treasury spending should always be very well spent. We'll make sure as DReps to do what's best for the growth and sustainability on the Cardano Network. Forward.

NoDeltaDeFi: Hydra Trading Infrastructure Budget (₳1,500,000)Epoch 610RationaleClosed6mo ago

The Pentad will help for the top 15 or 20 Dapps , possibly more, and DeltaDefi should be included. This is why I voted No, waiting a little longer for the Pentad.

YesCARDANO BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM CONSTITUTION v2.4Epoch 609RationaleEnacted5mo ago

Good constitutional change for budget.

AbstainCardano 2030: Vision, Mission, Strategy Framework and KPIsEpoch 608RationaleClosed5mo ago

Not Constitutional, I abstain.

YesAdd Constitutional Committee Member - ChristinaEpoch 607RationaleExpired6mo ago

Adding this constitutional committee member will get the Cardano governance ball rolling into 2026 and Christina is someone I trust to be impartial and reason well. Lets make 2026 Cardano's year Christina.

YesCardano Critical Integrations BudgetEpoch 604RationaleClosed7mo ago

I’m voting YES on the ₳70M Cardano Critical Integrations Budget because:It finally delivers the missing tier-1 pieces we’ve needed for years: real stablecoins, institutional custody, proper oracles, cross-chain bridges, and on-chain analytics.
All five core entities (IOG, EMURGO, CF, Intersect, Midnight) are aligned and co-signing, this level of unity is unprecedented and shows serious commitment.
Negotiations with top partners are already mature and it’s execution-ready in 2026.
One coordinated push is far more effective than dozens of scattered Catalyst proposals that never reach critical mass.
₳70M to remove 80% of Cardano’s current growth blockers and unlock real DeFi, RWA, and institutional volume is the best-value treasury spend we’ve ever had on the table.

Full speed ahead, let’s make Cardano undeniably competitive in 2026. YES.

YesAdd Constitutional Committee MemberEpoch 602RationaleEnacted7mo ago

Member was voted on and now its time to get Cardano Governance rolling again.

YesLoan ₳5,000,000 to Expand Cardano's Global ListingsEpoch 598RationaleEnacted8mo ago

Generating revenue for the Cardano Treasury is critcial for the long term sustainability of the network and Treasury. The SNEK team and community deserves the opportunity to prove themselves as an industry leading brand/IP. A great test for the Treasury for loans.

YesSecuring Generic Top-Level Domains for the Cardano EcosystemEpoch 597RationaleClosed8mo ago

Generic Top-Level domains should be accessible to the entire ecosystem.

YesReimburse Ikigai Info Governance Action Deposit.Epoch 597RationaleClosed8mo ago

Yes, there needs to be clean proposals and serious inquiries only. I think the 100,000 ADA is a little steep and maybe could be adjusted in the future based on ADA price. It's a good start and a Yes for me. Refunded ADA should absolutely happen.

NoConstitutional Committee Compensation Epochs 581-653Epoch 596RationaleClosed8mo ago

Happy to represent for free for the time being maybe in the future when more revenue streams start to come in we can reward the time for the Dreps who spent hours working out Cardano Governance

YesCARDANO BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM CONSTITUTION v2.3Epoch 593RationaleExpired8mo ago

The updated Constitution v2.3 is a good step forward.

YesStablecoin DeFi Liquidity BudgetEpoch 589RationaleClosed9mo ago

As a dRep, I will vote yes for this 50 million ADA proposal to boost stablecoin liquidity on Cardano’s DeFi ecosystem because enhancing liquidity is critical for creating robust alternatives to legacy financial systems. By seeding DEXs and lending protocols, the proposal fosters user growth and enables higher-yielding DeFi products, driving adoption. The gradual liquidation of ADA through OTC deals minimizes price impact, and I’m confident in the diverse 9-person committee’s ability to manage the fund transparently under tDAO oversight. The 50% stablecoin slippage reduction target is essential for ecosystem stability, and the public goods, like an open-source governance contract and legal framework, make this a valuable learning opportunity for Cardano, justifying the funding.

YesBudget: ₳5M Loan for Cardano's Global Listing Expansion - Powered by SnekEpoch 587RationaleClosed10mo ago

The Snek team and Community share the core values of the Cardano blockchain of decentralization and security. A loan with interest back to the treasury is worthy for this team and community. The value they have provided through the years of bearish pain was invaluable and now will take CNTs to the next level. Great timing, as this simultaneously happens with the NIGHT token going live. SNEK deserves a Yes for this specific proposal.

NoCardano in Oceania: A community-led strategic plan for investing in growth.Epoch 586RationaleClosed9mo ago

I’m voting down on this Oceania strategic plan because Cardano should prioritize urgent matters like scalability, client node diversity, DEX liquidity and core technology upgrades to ensure the platform’s long-term success. Catalyst is an excellent outlet for funding initiatives like this, resources should focus on the network’s infrastructure first.
