Probably one of the most important topic on Zcash going under the radar atm
I think it is just as important as talks abt ux/scalability/transition to pqc
The Devfund was intrumental in getting Zcash the strong foundation we see now and may be a growth accelerant if done right
Jun 11
For reference, 20% of mining rewards go the dev fund.
With ZEC being up >750% year of year, @ZcashCommGrants, for example, now sits on a $33M treasury.
At current ZEC prices, the dev fund is growing by about $112M / year.

Devfund never paid a dime for my research and I never had any access to it anyway, but I mean, whatever helps you sleep I guess

Testnet dApp updates:
New Insights tab added: you can now track the protocol's performance and monitor live metrics.
The card section below displays how much fees borrowers pay to suppliers, and how the platform revenue is re-allocated between the DAO and the Operational treasuries.
➡️You can see that at this level of TVL, estimations shows that approximately $13M will be sent yearly to the Kaspa core DevFund wallet to help finance R&D on Kaspa L1.
Each month, revenue from Kaskad is collected by the DAO, which then votes and decides on how to adjust the allocation to this wallet.
A complementary approach showing how it is possible support & fund the #Kaspa ecosystem via lending service, starting on @Igra_Labs first, and extending to Kaspa L1 when technology permits it.

Devfund is not theft
taxation is not theft, but a trade
you pay the state X, and in return get Y
like all deals, if you're getting shafted, leave and find a better deal because there's also the tax of compound interest (see img)
that said, unrealized gains tax is actual theft

Hi Junny, with @AppKaskad did reach out to Kaspa core and proposed to enforce a rule to allocate a part of the platform revenue to the DevFund wallet.
See here: x.com/i/status/1986035747602…
It's now been applied at the contract level and governance is requested to regularly vote on how much of the generated fees will be sent to this fund.
5 Nov 2025
To @hashdag @michaelsuttonil @OriNewman @coderofstuff_ and all other respectable Kaspa Core, as our goal is to democratize user adoption via lending and on-chain governance on the Kaspa Ecosystem, we feel it's only natural our project's success supports Kaspa L1 R&D, until such services can be used on L1 directly.
This is why we're embedding the management of our future protocol fees via a DAO Treasury, with a parameter allowing voters to decide how much of these fees can be re-allocated to a Kaspa Core DevFund wallet.
Question: There still is such an active DevFund wallet mentioned on kaspa.org with its own multisig set up, so how could we make this work? Would adding a DevFund EVM L2 wallet make sense to you? Or we could bridge fees back to L1.
Open to discuss.
