BreadAndRoses
Badges (7)
My campaign is a call for "bread and roses"—the pursuit of both economic justice ("bread") and the beauty and dignity of life ("roses"). I believe that economic and political transformation, where society thrives within ecological and social boundaries, can be achieved through RealFi and crypto-based solutions. These technologies provide opportunities to dismantle financial exclusion by creating transparent, decentralised systems that address real-world needs. In a world increasingly dominated by monopolies and environmental degradation, RealFi offers a path toward resilience, fostering inclusive growth while safeguarding our planet. This transformation addresses the systemic inequalities entrenched in current financial models. By leveraging blockchain technologies, we can reshape the rules to ensure that prosperity is shared, resources are protected, and communities are empowered to shape their own futures. Promoting both social and environmental well-being.
Motivations
Bread and Roses for all. My motivation arises from witnessing the unchecked dominance of monopolies and tech giants, coupled with the weakening of anti-trust laws, which has led to escalating inequality and stifled innovation. The growing influence of these entities—often propelled by corporate lobbying and shielded by think tanks and undisclosed funding—has pushed both societal and ecological boundaries to the brink. These forces not only amplify financial exclusion but also drive environmental degradation, pushing marginalised voices further to the periphery. The status quo benefits a small elite, who manipulate the minority as the thin end of the wedge to hijack power, leaving the majority struggling under systems designed to maintain the concentration of wealth and control. As a DRep, I am committed to challenging these imbalances. My aim is to restore power to the community, ensuring that governance is transparent, inclusive, and accountable.

Yes2025 Net Change LimitEpoch 554RationaleClosed1y ago
Basic Issue
Cardano needs to set a spending cap—called a Net Change Limit (NCL)—on how much can be withdrawn from the treasury for the year 2025. Without this limit being formally agreed on, no budget proposals or withdrawals can legally happen for that year.
Current State
There is no official Net Change Limit set for 2025.
Treasury spending for 2025 is not authorized under the Cardano Constitution.
Projects and governance actors cannot submit budget proposals yet.
End State (What’s Changing)
A Net Change Limit of 350,000,000,000,000 lovelace (350M ada) will be formally established.
This limit applies to the period from Epoch 532 to Epoch 604 (January to December 2025).
Once approved:
Budget proposals and treasury withdrawals can be made, up to that cap.
The ecosystem enters an annual budget cycle with a clear spending boundary.
The limit is based on 2024’s treasury inflow (~336M ada), aligning spending with income.
Why It Matters
It ensures constitutional compliance, budget transparency, and financial responsibility.
It enables projects to start applying for funds.
It links treasury usage to actual blockchain usage and performance—rewarding ecosystem growth.
