- Yes28.2K ₳Rationale
I am voting YES on this proposal because it funds critical Cardano infrastructure that directly supports the network’s scalability, resilience, security, and long-term sustainability.
The most significant component of this proposal is the delivery of Peras, a major consensus enhancement expected to reduce transaction finality from approximately 12 minutes to around 2 minutes. Faster finality will improve user experience, increase confidence in on-chain settlement, and strengthen Cardano’s competitiveness as a platform for DeFi, payments, and enterprise applications.
Beyond Peras, the proposal delivers several high-impact infrastructure improvements:
History Expiry, which will help reduce storage requirements for SPOs and support decentralization as network throughput increases.
Conformance Testing, Mutation Testing, and Adversarial Fork Testing, which strengthen protocol correctness and reduce deployment risks for future upgrades.
Hoarding Node, which improves network observability, monitoring, and incident detection capabilities.
Developer tooling enhancements, making it easier to build, test, and maintain applications on Cardano.I also recognize that Tweag has a long and proven track record within the Cardano ecosystem, having contributed to core infrastructure development since 2018, including consensus, ledger, and protocol-related work. This experience significantly reduces execution risk and increases confidence in the team's ability to deliver.
While the requested budget of ₳39,787,316 is substantial, the proposal focuses on foundational infrastructure that can generate long-term benefits for the entire ecosystem. The deliverables will be open source, subject to milestone-based oversight, auditing, and governance controls through Intersect’s treasury administration framework.
Overall, I believe this proposal represents a strategic investment in Cardano’s future and directly contributes to the network’s technical roadmap and long-term growth objectives.
For these reasons, I vote YES.
