Objectives
Krypto Labs fully supports sharing information and believes that knowledge about blockchain technology should be free and support open-source development. As an active DRep, we will contribute to the development of Cardano governance, supporting national and global needs. Krypto Labs with its resources will be represented in the Cardano governance system entity with our knowledge and expertise to deliver governance with the absolute best effort.
Motivations
We have a vast knowledge network and are on friendly terms with government, legal, top-tier exchanges, and local exchanges. All this is routed in a large crypto community in the Nordic countries that operate on different social media platforms. We will make a difference and treat our role as a DRep respectfully and subsequently. All members operate individually but share and contribute to growing the blockchain industry with the Cardano community
Qualifications
Krypto Labs is registered as one unit but is represented by many individual contributors. They represent a vast network of experts in the blockchain industry and the crypto space. Krypto Labs is a non-profit organization that engages in blockchain and crypto-related activities in the Nordic countries. Krypto Labs members have a good footprint in the Cardano ecosystem and we have well-known members of the Krypto Labs community in the Cardano ecosystem. As a non-profit organization, we share the knowledge for legal, technical, and know-how of the blockchain industry. The channel Krypto Labs primarily streams on YouTube three times a week, covering various blockchain-related topics and macroeconomics.

Activate DeFi with USA – A Decentralized, Yield-Bearing Dollar for Cardano
This proposal seeks treasury support from the Cardano Foundation to strategically bootstrap liquidity for USA, a yield-bearing synthetic dollar [digital asset mimicking USD value via algorithms or derivatives] developed by SMARDEX and collateralized by long ADA positions. Already successfully deployed as USDN on Ethereum, USA uniquely combines genuine decentralization, trustless yield generation, and market-neutral stability, appealing to an underserved, critical and growing niche in the current DeFi landscape. This proposal is more widely available on the References and Supporting Information below, with the text here being intentionally short and concise. USA’s innovative design eliminates reliance on centralized entities or manual interventions, utilizing fully on-chain, autonomous perpetual futures markets to deliver sustainable yield. This differentiates it sharply from existing stablecoin solutions, which either lack yield entirely (e.g., GHO, sUSD) or rely on centralized management (e.g., USDe). Its Cardano-native architecture ensures seamless integration and composability within the ecosystem, avoiding cross-chain risks and enhancing resilience. By strategically deploying protocol-owned liquidity into USA, this proposal not only resolves the classic "cold start" liquidity challenge faced by new assets but actively fosters enduring economic activity and ecosystem growth. Unlike transient incentive programs that attract short-term, mercenary capital, treasury-supported liquidity in USA establishes deep, durable market foundations. The capital provided by the treasury remains fully under Cardano's control, accessible at all times through transparent, non-custodial, and permissionless smart contracts. In short, this initiative positions Cardano at the forefront of decentralized stablecoin innovation, creating lasting value through a sustainable, yield-bearing, and entirely Cardano-native asset.
Cardano Community Lead Constitution Update
This proposal establishes a Governance Workstream Consortium which establishes decentralized execution framework, ROM Multisig Model, to support the delivery of constitutional dept workstreams in Cardano. Its core aim is to ensure that budgeted governance tasks are completed verifiably, transparently, and without relying on a single administrator.
Parameter change proposal - Lower minPoolCost to 0
(at the time of writing the gov.tools site did not have a Parameter Change dropdown value on Propose a Governance Action page implemented yet, although I hear it is in the works) This proposal is to change the parameter "minimum fixed rewards cut for pools (minPoolCost)" value from it's current value of 170 Ada to 0 Ada. This is to allow stake pool operators to set their fee structure as they see fit - without always forcibly taking a chunk out of pool rewards, the protocol-level action which results in continually growing gap (as the per-block reward continues to reduce over time, by staking design) in maximum ROI that a given small pool can offer compared to a big pool with similar fee structure in place.
