Great to see there are still some of the old community left 👍 This change actually coincides with when @IntersectMBO decided to “pivot”. I believe they originally had this in their budget, but then decided that instead of being an alternate Foundation where members could plan and coordinate strategic programs of work together, they would become a service provider to a chaotic free for all cash grab 😩 You were wise to jump ship and set up something that, at least in part, is what Intersect could have been.

There is some serious irony in this 😅 This was an Info action which required depositing 100k ada to the treasury to simply mark a milestone and share a message of hope for the future. Now, when trying to get the 100k back, the request can’t muster enough DRep support to just simply vote on it (Yes or No)😢 Is this a signal of what this community has become? There was a time when we would have rallied around in support. Now we are too focused on paying tens of millions to make sure we “win”, that we can’t even help the little guy get funds from the treasury that should never have been there.

My latest votes are in. After reviewing the proposals, I voted YES on the following Treasury Withdrawal proposals: 🔷 Eternl Path to Sustainability v2 🔷 Bifrost: Unlocking Bitcoin DeFi on Cardano 🔷 Global Order Book Connectivity for Cardano DeFi 🔷 Alpha Growth Initiative 🔷 Scalus 2026: Maintenance & Dijkstra Readiness 🔷 Revised Cardano dOSPO & OMF Program Each proposal was evaluated on its own merits, with a focus on one question: Will this create long-term value for Cardano? My priorities remain consistent: 🔷 Fiscal responsibility 🔷 Sustainable infrastructure 🔷 Enterprise adoption 🔷 Measurable outcomes Every vote is accompanied by due diligence and a commitment to transparent governance. You can review my voting record and rationale as they're published. #Cardano #Governance #DRep go here to delegate to my drep x.com/blockjock2017/…

Cardano is the only ecosystem I will ever devote my time to both personally and professionally. As a DRep, my focus is simple: good stewardship, informed voting, and long-term value creation. 🔹 25+ years of real-world business leadership 🔹 Business Development Lead -- USDM by Moneta 🔹 Co-host -- Cardano Over Coffee 🔹 Constitutional Committee Member — Cardano Curia 🔹 Voting Member -- Intersect Product Committee 🔹 Voting Member -- Intersect Service Committee ⚖️ Cardano Foundation Delegation Recipient My principles: 🗝️ Listen before voting 🛡️ Challenge unnecessary treasury risk 🛠️ Support builders creating measurable value Delegate to my DRep Copy and paste the following DRep ID into your wallet's DRep search: drep1ygnypzfv2v8fmfelthahvn0rqyh54sf6z2aa5m7f3fkjgqqt8l2qq Supported by most Cardano governance-enabled wallets, including: @eternlwallet @lace_io @vesprwallet Delegate or re-delegate here: Civitas — @CivitasExplorer civitasexplorer.com/delegate/drep1… AdaStat — @ada_stat adastat.net/dreps/drep1ygn… Tempo Vote — @tempo_vote tempo.vote/drep-profile?d… Community @cardanocuria @USDMOfficial @IntersectCPC @coc_space @IntersectMBO @Cardano_CF Balance.

This is the epitome of the points I have been making lately about “if you build it they will come”. It’s been made abundantly clear at this point that is not the case. BD is extremely important, if you want Cardano to succeed it’s not optional anymore. Our BD and commercial arm have let us down to this point, not debatable. This is one of the main reasons I’m supporting @alphagrowth1 because I think it will shine a very positive light on the ecosystem we have built and allow us to have some reach outside of our bubble. This is the main reason we went out and secured our own relationship with @selloutio and tried to bring them into Cardano. It’s really not that complex of an issue.

@WelfBrandolf Why would it be? We started there, but we need commercial representation to make these deals. If you want them, then pay for them. Use the treasury to finance an initiative and seal deals. Or have learned helplessness over social media and earn bonus points for blaming Charles

I love the voting logic, one voted No to Intersect saying no MBO's but they're apart of another MBO lol

To the certain individuals who keep being very bashful with their intents. You know who you are, just stop it already. I once believed you, thinking you were a welcome resource in my work before, but all you did was come with negativity and criticism on everything we ever tried to do. You mounted your high horse and puffed your nose at my work, so I found people with higher horses than your own who validated every detail. I'm at the point now where I'm not going to be in the bitterness cycle anymore. I forgive your behavior and hope you self-reflect. I don't need your validation. The fact so much got done without you is a testament to quality. I stand on my own and I'm proud now you were never part of the story.

Take a wild guess. How many governance actions I've helped put on-chain without anyone ever realizing I was the one who built the files and submitted the transactions? 😅

1. Cardano's best days are ahead of it. 2. In age of AI slop, I'm finding novels really comforting right now. Words strung together by humans are more important than ever. 3. My band of humans has a new single today, and I love it (wherever you might stream): open.spotify.com/album/20qbjQvn… 4. I recognize that I posted a bunch here on the socials while we were working to get the 5am proposal across the line, then got quiet again. Actual life has been anything but quiet. Didn't intend to "disappear" after that, it's just that time and attention are limited. Looking forward to sharing a whole lot about what we've been cooking at Andamio in the weeks to come. We're gonna bring the vision like it's 2021, and we will invite you to get involved. See you soon!

Yes, yes, yes, and fking yes. This here, as described by @phil_uplc, is one of the most reliable and safest method, and I strongly recommend you guys use it for everything Cardano-related. Here is a nice tutorial to start with: developers.cardano.org/docs/operators…
