Objectives

✅ 1) Bring Value to Cardano ☑️ 2) Mass Adoption and easy to use systems and tools ✅ 3) Decentralization and network performance ☑️ 4) Making a Difference by considering worldwide needs

Motivations

🌐 To enable necessary change on the Cardano blockchain so that we can continue to innovate, decentralize, attract new users to the ecosystem, and become the #1 cryptocurrency and worldwide financial operating system. 🌐 To ensure the treasury is managed conservatively so that we will always be able to fund future development on Cardano. 🌐 To enshrine the maximum supply cap of 45 billion ADA. 🌐 To encourage cost effective advertising and onboarding initiatives. There are many untapped areas of connection for Cardano to onboard new users. 🌐 To empower the world with universal access to secure and cost effective tools on the Cardano blockchain, replacing failed legacy systems.

Qualifications

I've been a part of the Cardano community since 2017, and truly believe in the Cardano vision of reshaping our world for the better with blockchain. I'm the owner and operator of GAIA Stake Pool, a mission driven pool supporting charities that heal the earth and art initiatives on Cardano. As a member of Climate Neutral Cardano, I worked on both the Cardano Forest project (veritree) (https://ito.veritree.com) and the CNC Ala project (Tetikasa Ala) (https://cncala.climateneutralcardano.org) As an Art Director working in the entertainment industry, I successfully managed and completed many large-scale projects for high-profile clients around the world. I am always ready to cooperate and collaborate to get great things accomplished.

Activate DeFi with USA – A Decentralized, Yield-Bearing Dollar for Cardano

Pending
ABSTAIN

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

Pending
ABSTAIN

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

Pending
ABSTAIN

(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.
