We respectfully ask @yutazzz who represents the massive 日本語 Cardano $ADA holder base to reconsider your vote for CBDAO. A YES vote for CBDAO may be the difference between live dapp builders accelerating or struggling to support growth. 🇯🇵🤝🚀 We are a member of Cardano Builder Dao and we are pushing to see more support for Japan users to boost TVL and Trxn KPIs, as well as inviting Japan builders to join the DAO! Let’s grow in partnership with utility that supports more KPI growth and utility in the Japan community!

The impact of the CB DAO on activity across Cardano cannot be overstated. After joining the CBDAO last round, and being funded, BankFi, in less than three months, has seen measurable growth in transactions, TVL, user activity, and new business opportunities that came directly from this integration with CBDAO. More importantly, it connected us with other builders who share the same goal: creating sustainable businesses that bring long-term value to Cardano. Infrastructure is essential, but infrastructure alone doesn't onboard users or create economic activity. Builders do. The CB DAO gives Cardano a way to coordinate, fund, and hold accountable the teams willing to take the risk of building companies on this ecosystem. We've experienced that value firsthand, and we believe Cardano will be stronger if more builders are given the same opportunity.

Thanks @surfcardano and @phillerino, i love this product it's so easy to increase my ROI in $IAG, after all the FUD the technology is there so lets push $IAG to 0.4A

@yutazzz Hi Yuta-san, I'm glad to see you're open to the idea that Cardano needs to fund business initiatives just as much as infrastructure and technology. What's the point of high-quality roads if nobody drives on them? We don't have much time, so this will probably be my final appeal to you, and I want to say I've genuinely enjoyed the debate on Hydra. We are one day away from deciding whether an ecosystem with 350M ADA to spend will choose to value the entrepreneurs and developers who (i) quit their jobs to build products and companies with Cardano as their backbone, (ii) have stayed despite below-market salaries, and (iii) have recently chosen to build on Cardano. Imagine being a new entrepreneur whose only funding route is going direct to the treasury. That will not attract new builders, most certainly not. From my perspective, the CB DAO is a business proposal. It's a coordination layer with one simple purpose: to fund and hold accountable businesses on Cardano. It lets dReps say, "Yes, we want builders taken care of, and we want to delegate the operations and accountability layer to sort through smaller proposals from proven Cardano builders." So, what is the CB DAO most likely to fund? The honest answer is that preselecting projects is not how good, fluid governance works. What we have instead is a mandate and a transparent, competitive process: one member, one vote, decided by an informed, domain-expert voter base, funding the products and teams that base believes are best for Cardano's KPIs and for bringing new users to the chain. And we run funding rounds more frequently than the treasury runs budget cycles, so capital moves at the speed builders actually need. Rather than tell you in the abstract, let me show you. Here are real proposals from our last governance round so you can judge the quality and nature of the work yourself: Masumi: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… Clarity: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… Delta DeFi: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… Anvil Development Agency: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… BankFi: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… Flux Point Studios: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… CSWAP: drive.tiny.cloud/1/1k7o5om77… There's more, but this should give you the idea. The Builder DAO needs your vote. We believe this kind of ultra-transparent, dRep-overseen, domain-specific coordination layer is an evolution in Cardano governance, and a necessary one if we want builders to stay and keep building the businesses that scale Cardano's KPIs.

To @yutazzz: I really think it would be best for you to reconsider your vote and change it to YES for @builder__dao through the Intersect process. With Catalyst cancelled, there are currently no meaningful economic incentives for ecosystem builders. Cardano still does not have enough ecosystem activity for most teams to sustain themselves through revenue alone. We have also struggled to attract VC funding. While the Draper fund is a positive development, much of that capital will likely go to new teams. We need to retain the talent, experience, and momentum already present in the Cardano ecosystem so things do not deteriorate further. We are competing against teams on other chains that have access to far greater resources. One of the other Bitcoin staking teams we compete with raised $100M. We were able to launch ours thanks in part to a small grant from CB DAO. Without support, we cannot reasonably expect builders to continue building on Cardano. Cardano’s weakness is not infrastructure. It is lack of ecosystem activity. Cutting off all ecosystem funding right now would be a serious mistake. Given how much is being spent on infrastructure and operations, this small grant system is a tiny but important lifeline for builders. Voting no creates a major risk, especially with Catalyst cancelled and no clear alternative in place. For the benefit of $ADA holders and the broader ecosystem, please reconsider your vote. 🙏

📊 WALKERS KPIs PROGRESS UPDATE (2/6 MONTHS TARGETS) 🚀 In just 2 months, we’ve already made strong progress toward our KPI goals 💪 Huge thanks to @builder__dao for the trust and funding 💜 🔥 2 months in 📈 Target: SURPASS all KPIs We’re not aiming for 100%… we’re aiming higher. 🚀 We build. We deliver. We exceed.

We have cast our votes on the 2026 @IntersectMBO Budget Process. 69 proposals, 331.5M $ADA requested, and published rationales for our votes. Explore our voting decisions in this article: cardanofoundation.org/blog/v…

Markets move in cycles. Building doesn't stop. The largest interoperability deployment in Cardano's history is underway. LayerZero connects Cardano to the broader crypto economy, bringing over 800 tokens and every major chain into one unified network. It rolls out in phases: testnet, mainnet, Stargate, and developer tooling, culminating in one simple truth: by end of year, any asset deploys on Cardano. The barriers are coming down, more soon. iog.io/news/cardano-is-conne…

To Esco and the Cardano Community, Here is some perspective for you about administration budgets. I appreciate the harsh criticism and your passion, but man I hope you are open to understanding. I am perplexed by your narrative painting, especially when not long ago we were on calls and you were excited about the DAO and wanted to use the network to help grow your business. You are currently yelling about Clarity getting all of the administration budget that totals 420k ADA. (False) The on-chain evidence shows that Clear Contracts got 210k ADA for consulting and administration services which include (1.75% of the fund, not 3.5%, simple maths lol). And I tell you what the work we had to put into do this job well was a lot. We worked with the auditor to set up membership diligence and lead recruitment to get as many builders from as many corners of the ecosystem we could. We Headed up member engagement and alignment meaning member meetings, setting schedules, tons of reminders being sent out, getting all the governance actions up correctly. We lead compliance and documentation management. We lead Communication and Representation and traveled to events within this budget. We create, maintain, and manage the official CB DAO governance platform. We led the creation of the foundation documents, the amendment process, and the governance framework. We are leads on the technical infrastructure that powers the CB DAO. We find and source the right vendors for the DAO. And there's more we do for this DAO too. But, to really paint the picture on why I am confused about why you keep sowing doubt about the CB DAO and the efficiency of our administration budget, let's look at the administration budgets of other funding mechanisms in Cardano. In 2025 budget Catalyst sites 2,479,000 ADA for interface design and development (This is taken care of for the CB DAO because we use an existing product) 2,680,000 for production grade decentralized Catalyst infrastructure via Hermes 3,300,000 for fund operations Total Admin budget: 8,459,000 ADA The 2025 Intersect budget (I understand this is less of an apples to apples comparison) 4.5M USD on staff 175k USD for board members 200k USD for company expenses 500k USD on software licenses and infrastructure 500k USD for legal and compliance 250k USD for board services 300k USD for membership and marketing 500k USD for committee stipends to administer treasury withdrawals. Total Admin: 6,925,000 USD Draper Management fee 6 M USD for 6 years (discounted average market rate for similar set-ups) Fund Expenses 1.2M USD Holding administration expenses 0.3M USD Meanwhile, the Cardano Builder DAO continues to thrive on a production grade treasury management system, with no large or unexplained delays, with a 210,000 USD Admin budget. Like really man, if you are for less admin budget, fairer distributions of funds to the people actually contributing to KPIs, more transparency, you should probably be for the DAO. Lastly, painting Clarity as greedy is not just and I won't stand for it. We literally had an idea and distributed funds across the ecosystem to builders we know and don't know, while getting the lion's majority of our funding by participating in the process that everyone else had to. We currently have a modest amount of runway left at very modest salaries. That is the truth.

Hey Walkers 🚶‍♀️🚶🚶‍♂️ We’re excited to welcome $PERP into the Walkers rewards ecosystem! This strategic partnership is designed to bring more value, utility, and growth to both communities. Keep moving—every step you take counts! 💪

Cardano is run, owned, and it's future is decided on by ADA holders. That is the beauty of a decentralised blockchain, and another positive of Cardano.

Hey Walkers 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚶 We want to share a few thoughts openly with all of you. Walkers has been building since 2022. Over the years, with the support of our community and our incredible team, we’ve created so much and we’re not stopping. We never have. We believe our past, present, and future are all here, together with you. We were never highlighted, never funded, and never supported by any entity on Cardano… until we became part of @builder__dao We’ve never picked sides because that’s pointless. Cardano is one, and we should move forward as one. What @builder__dao brought us: • Strong connections • Improved direction for future plans • Funding to build the best Web2 onboarding • New users joining the ecosystem • 60% KPI growth in just a few months • Meaningful partnerships for mutual growth • A community of people who genuinely care about Cardano’s future This is, without a doubt, one of the best treasury investments we’ve seen so far. Cardano apps and dApps are not dying. We’ve survived before and we’ll continue to thrive. But builders need support. dReps—focus on what matters now. Not in 3 years. Not in theory. Support what brings users, activity, and growth today: Marketing. KPIs. Community. Adoption. intersect.ekklesia.vote/ball…

Despite the challenging times we're facing across crypto and especially with cardano:native we keep building Next 15 days are going to be HUGE ✅Launch of WChronicles Digital Card Collection ✅Official approval to our first property (Real Estate) $WLK is the ticker

What matters long term is not short-term market sentiment, but whether an ecosystem continues to build meaningful infrastructure and attract real adoption. Cardano today has: Decentralized Governance operating at scale through CIP-1694 and on-chain voting One of the strongest open-source communities in the industry, with contributors building across research, protocol development, tooling, and applications worldwide Institutional Transparency anchored directly on-chain, where governance actions, treasury activity, and ecosystem operations are publicly verifiable Growing DeFi initiatives including Bifrost by Fluid Tokens Pogun by IOG Sundial Protocol Charms BTC Karma Expanding RWA and digital identity infrastructure through projects like Veridian and tokenization initiatives across multiple regions Global public/private sector collaborations spanning education, telecommunications, digital identity, and blockchain infrastructure Examples of transparent on-chain activity already visible today include: DRep registrations and governance actions Treasury withdrawals and constitutional committee activity Ecosystem and partner network activity Native asset issuance and RWA directly on London Stock Exchange 20.000 farmers in India combining satellite data, identity, education and industry Everything verifiable. Everything auditable. Built in public. The work continues.
