@CryptoSA99 @dapp_central 😂

Why can't these people raise funds like @dapp_central instead of trying to drain treasury? $ada

@Sssebi Nope

Do you think $ADA can get back in the top 10 in the next 3-4 months?

@astroboysoup It’s true

Comments? Opinions?

@OzDefi @snek None of y’all deserve the millions you’ve been given

Amazing that @snek, a meme coin with a small amount of revenue, gets crap from the community for borrowing 5 million $ada. Meanwhile IO and friends that are profitable get to suck up Treasury funds. Don't pay anything back, even though they probably could. Why don't they just get a loan?

@CardanoRacers Doesn’t matter if we spend or not the price never reacts lol

How do we increase $ADA price and network activity without spending treasury funds?🤔
I think that's one of the challenges we’re facing!

@Sssebi I’m poor

Tell me you are a Cardano holder without telling me you are a Cardano holder.

@IOGroup @phil_uplc No no and no. We paid you the money for the same initatives last year, fucking build them already

IO’s 2026 treasury proposals are now live. We’re submitting nine proposals this year, with a funding ask just under 50% of last year’s, and a clear focus on getting the job done. With Leios testnet arriving in June and mainnet targeted by the end of 2026, the slate delivers the performance, security, and capability upgrades needed to move Cardano into its next phase. DRep voting is open now and closes on 24 May. Explore the full set of proposals → momentum.cardano.iog.io Kick-Off: The Cardano 2026 Proposals by IOG today 16:00 BST: x.com/i/spaces/1lkqr…

@UtxoSaint @jambo_sinlambo @ToriRibolla At the end of the day EVM chains like Eth captured ALL of the money and are continuing to do so

You can believe in what you want. But account model is just convenience that Vitalik chose. The right model for blockchains is UTXO. That’s why it was chosen for Bitcoin. Going with account model that has a global state is a bad choice as we are seeing everyday not to mention the solidity crap that results in so much fragile code that’s in existence resulting in billions of hard earned money lost. ETH is a good prototype but a terrible end product overall.

only one coin i truly believe in is ETH prove me wrong

@CardanoRami @FluidTokens @DanoFinance @strikeperps You are a dumbass, the chart is priced in ADA which is going down against USD, that’s why it’s going up 🤦‍♂️

Cardano TVL is growing at a surprising speed lately. @FluidTokens - TVL is up 250% since offering user incentives. @DanoFinance - TVL has exploded with their new concentrated liquidity product. @strikeperps - Vault liquidity has more than doubled since offering user incentives. @surfcardano just announced user incentives once their v2 goes live. Our ecosystem is building great momentum right now. We have to continue to push incentives in order to grow liquidity. We also have to offer incentives on stablecoin minting and deployment which @phil_uplc mentioned is coming soon. Let's grow Cardano.

Not sure if the admin is just retarded or? Cardano TVL hasn’t been this LOW in 3 years. Try pricing it in USD, not ada. Fools @TapTools

@Girakian @TapTools @UtxoSaint It’s priced in Ada you numpty

@TapTools @UtxoSaint Huge, and that with this bad sentiment is really fantastic…so let’s go..

JUST IN: Cardano $ADA TVL just hit its highest level in over a year.

@angrycryptoshow @TapTools Maybe read the chart before you spread misinformation on YouTube. He has it priced in ADA, it’s chart is going up because Adas USD value is in the gutter lol

@TapTools Will highlight this uptrend tonight on YT, thank you TapTools

@notrick374 He actually had a huge round of applause at the end of this you fucking idiot 😂

Empty room Deserve it Fucking scammers

@jasonappleton Like what?

The idea that only use cases such as Meme Coins, NFT's, Hacks, Bots and Rug Pulls are the only metrics by which a chain merits interest or value so long as Number Go Up is not only absurd, but extremely ignorant. Cardano has been building for much more substantial uses.

@phillewisit @opti_x When you make real points, they stop replying 😂 I agree with you 100%

@opti_x Does anyone NEED to trade what is currently offered in these markets. I am only interested in natural markets for real value. Maybe you missed that part of my post. The financialisation of our economy is a net negative for the world, with the 2008 GFC just one example.

DeFi maxis are just TradFi wolves in sheep’s clothing. Most people’s view of Wall Street isn’t a good one. They manipulate natural markets to extract value from those looking to invest/save in assets that provide some benefit to the world, at a fair value. But despite TradFi being a net negative to the world, at least their markets are for assets with real value/utility. DeFi maxis are like “ooh let me get some of that value extraction, but with this hypecoin that does nothing for the world” 😩 And we wonder why there is no adoption 🤡

@phil_uplc Umm we don’t have any dapps worth marketing especially not worth 21m ADA. Get a grip

Service plan is an extremely serious and high competence marketing firm. The problem is this proposal allocates the majority of funds for them to market supply chain traceability solutions on Cardano which is a market that doesn’t exist in a serious capacity and even if it did, we don’t have competitive tooling for it. This is like hiring a fighter jet to go fire missles into outer space. Yes, service plan will get eyes, views, clicks and user registrations, but if we pay them to market supply chain traceability we will get nothing. The focus should be on marketing the apps that currently exist on mainnet with real users, real economic activity and real KPIs for the chain, namely, our DeFi apps.

@Padierfind @realdecimalist IMO this amount of money needs to be handed out quarterly while they meet milestones. Also, the document doesn’t account for who will be closing deals and developing solutions that will arise from this marketing.

Good Morning Cardano Serviceplan Group, the marketing agency who also works for companies like BMW, Netflix, Amazon, etc. has just submitted an official Marketing proposal for the Intersect Budget process. After 1.5 years of building Masumi & becoming closer & closer to Cardano, they've decided that they want to become Cardanos official Marketing partner. Some disclaimers first: 1) I am an unpaid advisor to this proposal. Yes, unpaid. I do not get any money if it wins but I've decided to give some of my time & help Serviceplan with connections into the ecosystem because I believe that professional marketing like this is very much needed in Cardano. 2) This is a joint proposal coming from multiple different agencies from inside the Serviceplan Group. Serviceplan has around 6000+ employees. The team working on this is a different team than the one working on Masumi. 3) This proposal is not a grant or some speculative investment or so. It's an actual proposal for very specific work package that will be carried out. It's the first time SP has ever done "public pitch" like this, normally they're used to pitching in front of marketing departments of large enterprises. 6 months of work went into drafting this proposal. So please be nice, even when you have criticism. :) 4) Serviceplan is the only entity that I know of from outside of Cardano that has invested a Multi-Million dollar amount into Cardano development in recent years. I'm not sure I'm allowed to say the exact number but let's just say this: If they win this proposal + the Catalyst proposals they've received for Masumi, it will still be less than what they've invested into Cardano so far. That alone should be reason to take a very serious look at this. Now about the proposal itself: The goal of this proposal is to broadly "reposition" Cardano as the Blockchain for serious business. It's specially built so it captures Leads & distributes them into the ecosystem. The main pillars that the proposal focuses on are 1) DeFi and 2) Supply Chain. Now I highly recommend everyone for read through the full proposal, I will put the link to the PDF into the comments.

@FabioCosta73825 @JaromirTesar That is quite literally the purpose and existence of Dreps

@JaromirTesar We don’t we hire someone or a team from the outside, decided by us and with the ability to be dismissed by us with voting systems in place

Cardano does not have clear leadership. Previously, it was IOG, Cardano Foundation (CF), and EMURGO. Charles Hoskinson was perceived as the leader. After the introduction of on-chain governance, the model evolved as follows: DReps → governance decision-making Pentad → leadership and execution DReps decide on Treasury spending, so they give legitimacy to the strategy that Pentad offers. This situation is given mainly because DReps are not coordinated. So they cannot define the strategy and prioritize. Therefore, on-chain governance is still dependent on the founding entities. We have decentralized governance, but still strongly centralized leadership and execution. A strong player is Intersect, because it plays the role of coordinator. For example, it prepares the Budget Framework process. Intersect has to balance the role of facilitator and leader, because it may not want to be a leader. Not being a leader means that it does not bearing responsibility. Leadership without responsibility does not work. On-chain governance is not the same as leadership. A leader bears responsibility, but we don’t have one. Responsibility is diluted somewhere between Pentad and DReps. The problem is that leadership and execution can only be decentralized with difficulty, if at all. That’s why it’s fragmented now. New leaders may be born. We may see a struggle for leadership. Or, it stays the same. Leadership should not be in a vacuum in the name of decentralization. Where to transfer leadership? The logical direction is towards DReps. For DReps to have a stronger position, it must be coordinated. Something like a DRep board must emerge. DReps should be responsible not only for Treasury spending, but also for actively defining strategy and prioritizing. Effective execution requires centralization, but it is still possible to involve DReps in the process through cooperation with existing executors or by introducing DAOs. DAOs could take responsibility for supporting builders, ecosystem growth, innovation, marketing, open-source activities, etc. A stronger coordination layer is needed among DReps and founding entities + Intersect. This can only be built if DReps have a clearly defined coordination layer between themselves and between sub-DAOs. Founding entities can provide expertise, knowledge, and experience, while DReps will define the direction from the bottom up. The evolution of the governance system will allow for a dialogue between DReps and founding entities. Currently, communication is practically non-existent. It is done through on-chain proposals. The result will likely be a rejected proposal regarding Summit and TOKEN2049. FEs may think that their activities can be funded from the Treasury forever, while DReps may think the opposite. The goal is to find a consensus on the future functioning. This path is not easy. There are many obstacles ahead that we will have to overcome. However, governance needs to be more effective, so we have to try.

@DaveB67941888 @vivarantex @bigpey @IOHK_Charles We know that he has received millions of Ada and not provided much of anything, did you miss that point because you seem to be defending nothing related to what he is saying, idiot

@vivarantex @bigpey @IOHK_Charles Motherfucker....do you know the guy? All they want to do is take Cardano down..... BECAUSE THEH ARE SCARED.

What we got from @bigpey after all this time? He took 1.6 million from the treasury after all @IOHK_Charles, any idea? Do not let him take anything from $night ecosystem cause that's what he will try to do next....

@TheOCcryptobro @pyro_ae @Cardano_CF Wrong, Farid did genuine deep dives and explained things well past the headlines. He also gave a voice to some of Cardanos biggest Dapps. Scammer nonetheless but you can’t knock his knowledge and content in the slightest

@pyro_ae @Cardano_CF Were they though? He simply put up posts of others or project announcements and regurgitated the same info on video. Literally a parrot.

#Cardano fam, remember Farid being flown to Dubai and put in a luxury hotel on community $ADA? Add insult to injury was HONORED by the @Cardano_CF with an award?!? Honestly who actually voted for him? Great example of everything that’s wrong with our “governance”…..
