Good news on the coming Midnight release & follow-up composability upgrade 👀 As known, the v8 release enables private contracts, with composability (v9) coming after Thanks to our great audit partners, it look like the composability upgrade (v9) will be also be this year!

Who is behind this second attempt at TapTools? When you say “we” who are you referring to?

Nope! I always say there is no such thing as self-made. It’s a myth. It took millions of people - from my parents to mentors to friends to competitors to fans and voters - to write my success story. I did not write it alone. That’s the American Dream - not a lie about going it alone - but the truth that none of us do, and there is always someone with their hand out to lift us up.
this guy did everything for himself!

A new Catalyst pilot fund will start in August 2026, with a total grant pool of 2M $ADA. We look forward to working with the community and supporting the Cardano builders. More details soon. Read the announcement on the Forum and share your thoughts. forum.cardano.org/t/new-cata…

I published a public spreadsheet to help #dReps and the #Cardano community check proposer track records in the 2026 Budget / Treasury Withdrawal cycle. Why does this matter⁉️ Because 50 different proposers submitted proposals through the Intersect Budget Framework. The Budget Committee @IntersectCBC created a dashboard to show the track record of the proposers that uses APIs and automation to identify previous funding history. 💰 Roughly half of the proposers were already identified by the dashboard as having some prior funding record. My additional contribution to the dashboard focused on the other side of the problem: 🔷 Cases where prior funding was not identified automatically. I manually checked 26 individual proposers, mostly proposals that appeared to have no previous funding history in the dashboard. The result: 👉🏻 10 proposers still appear to have no prior Cardano Treasury-related funding. 🔎 But in the other 16 cases, manual research identified historical links to 172 funded initiatives across different Cardano funding vehicles, including: 🔹 Project Catalyst 🔹 Intersect grants 🔹 Treasury Withdrawals 🔹 Cardano Builder DAO 🎯 That is exactly why manual reconciliation matters. The reason the dashboard does not yet identify all of these cases is that historical links may exist under different names, companies, aliases, teams, or funding systems, meaning dReps may miss important context if those connections are not reconciled manually. 📌 This does not mean those proposers did anything wrong. 📌 It does not mean the proposals should be rejected. 📌 It does not mean every associated initiative was directly led by the same person. 👍🏻 It means proposer history in Cardano is fragmented and needs careful reconciliation. This research is not: - a ranking - an endorsement - a vote recommendation - financial due diligence - a subjective proposal review It is simply a supplementary governance data layer. The goal is to make proposer history easier to verify and help dReps make better-informed decisions during a constrained Treasury allocation cycle. The first-stage dataset is now public: 🔹 Dashboard (by @radioastro): lloydduhon.github.io/cardano… 🔹 Spreadsheet (this is the main reference for consultation): docs.google.com/spreadsheets… 🔹Methodology: hackmd.io/@CEF-RDdySpK5Aabyb… 🔹 Github for nerds: github.com/Agora-Cardano/ago… The GitHub repo and spreadsheet serve as public references for the manual reconciliation work.
🧵 The Cardano Budget Committee is happy to share a new resource for DReps: a Treasury History Archive built to help with discovery and research.🔗 lloydduhon.github.io/cardano… (1/3)

Update on the budget committee TWGA structure: Original plan: 2 bundled treasury withdrawals — chosen because Intersect couldn't produce multiple TWGAs in one funding round. New info: Intersect has confirmed they can now produce single TWGAs for every proposal clearing 67% at the hydra voting stage. Question to the community — do we: • Switch to single TWGAs per proposal, or • Keep the bundled structure already in the info action? Looking for DRep and community input before the committee decides. #Cardano

Is Cardano much faster than last year? Does it have 10x the throughput from last year? Does it have 10x the user from last year? Has it improved in any visible way from last year or the year before? Then what did that 97.5M buy us?

mostly that it seems like a disengenuous play on numbers. Catalyst ($34.7m - of which only F14 was delivered) + IOR ($13.42m) proposals from last year totaled ($48.12m). Catalyst got handed to the CF and IOR hasn’t come back to treasury. So excluding these two, the IO ask is the same. Not 50% less.

If your $ADA stack can be used to vote on projects that disburse funds to you, the incentive will be to keep that stack and milk the cow. The disincentive would be to exclude that said stack from governance voting but that ship has sailed a long time ago. The system is captive.

Update: Farid committed to providing a repayment plan to a group of us on March 27 but hasn’t followed up, and hasn't responded since. His DAPP pools are still producing (800+ ADA/epoch) with 23k+ ADA currently in the rewards address, while 10+ community members remain unpaid. The total outstanding amount appears to be 200k+ ADA. If anyone is in contact with Farid, or if you are also affected and would like to join our group, please DM. @dapp_central
Anyone able to get in touch with Farid Ouedraogo (aka @dapp_central) recently? I’ve been trying to reach him for a couple of months regarding an outstanding private loan and haven’t received a response. If anyone has an updated contact method, please DM me.

For those following the Liqwid vote on the NIGHT distribution here is the latest. To the LQ holders voting for option 1 👏💪
Shit... Some whale just voted that the DAO should get 90% of the NIGHT and ADA holders should get 10%

I first learned about Indigo when I wrote about it while participating in a DYOR competition organized by @SCATDAO and since then I’ve taken time to explore how the protocol works.

I published a detailed review of the proposed Intersect ecosystem budget framework for Cardano 🚨 Coordination is necessary, but structural issues remain unresolved: proposal bundling risk, weak incentives for thoughtful DRep reviews & unclear NCL spending rules Full review 👇🏻 xitter.gq/i/status/2030292704056… It would be great to hear how the @IntersectCBC Budget Committee and the broad community are thinking about these points. @radioastro @NicolasC3rny @jrv97_velazquez @SCATDAO #Cardano #DRep
A refreshed framework for the Cardano 2026 budget cycle has been submitted! Cardano's Treasury is one of the ecosystem's greatest strategic resources. Based on lessons from 2025 and progress made on ecosystem strategy, a revamped 2026 budgeting framework has been proposed to better align funding with Vision 2030 priorities, measurable outcomes, and ecosystem growth. Read more ➡️ bit.ly/2026-Budget-Process DReps can vote to endorse the framework now ➡️

I have to agree, unfortunately. The Cardano community talks about accountability, but when it comes to supporting projects that aim to actually deliver it, there's no proper recognition. We need to change that.
Replying to @RodrigoPacini
Great question and we were trying to do something exactly like that with DYORTool. Unfortunately it seemed like there wasn’t much interest. And even when pointing out questionable behavior or past experience like with MELD, people would turn a blind eye until they rugged.

GM #Cardano Sharing the #ProjectCatalyst voting power breakdown I calculated using the data from @LidoNation There was a decrease of 4,766 wallets and 348M ADA from F13. Top 1.4% of all wallets control 58% of all ADA voting power Bottom 55% of all wallets control .9% 1/2
