Cardano Foundation
The Cardano Foundation aims to encourage wider participation in the Cardano ecosystem and ensure that Cardano remains a long-lasting, robust blockchain fit for building innovation. We look to eight core elements as criteria to keep it a secure, inclusive, and sustainable network: accessibility; decentralization; security and resilience; scalability; viable economic models; educational resources; the infrastructure’s core development; and governance itself.

Motivações
The Foundation believes in collaboration, in working hand-in-hand with the community while also promoting innovation. And we strive to do so while upholding integrity, transparency, inclusivity, and maintaining sustainable practices. We vote both to empower the ecosystem and drive adoption by facilitating the onboarding of various organizations to Cardano.
Qualificações
Founded in 2016, the Cardano Foundation is an independent, Swiss-based not-for-profit advancing Cardano as a public infrastructure across a wide range of industries. Our efforts have resulted in collaborations with UN organizations, commercial sectors, and universities, among others. We also contribute to the creation and maintenance of several open-source tools, and have developed the Cardano Academy for easy access to high-quality blockchain education. Starting in 2018, we support a global network of multilingual volunteers via the Cardano Ambassador Program to amplify community engagement. In 2025, the Foundation published the first ever Cardano Ecosystem Guide. Since 2023, in line with our commitment to transparency, we share a yearly Financial Insights Report. And in 2025 we made our underlying regulatory data available on Reeve, a financial reporting solution built on Cardano. The Foundation’s Reports and Governance pages provide further details.

Test title
Test Abstract
High-performance Rust Ogmios Client
We propose developing a high-performance Rust client library for Ogmios, enabling fast, safe, and efficient communication with the Cardano node. While a TypeScript client currently exists, there's a growing demand for Rust-based infrastructure, especially for backend applications requiring low latency, high throughput, and robust memory safety. The library will support all four Ogmios mini-protocols (chain sync, ledger queries, transaction submission, and mempool monitoring). It will be optimized using advanced techniques such as arena allocation, Struct-of-Arrays optimizations, and SIMD parsing, where appropriate. A complete example application and comprehensive test suite (unit, end-to-end, and live network) will ensure usability and reliability. This project lowers the barrier for Rust developers building on Cardano, improves performance for critical applications (e.g., trading bots, DEXes, mempool tools), and better integrates with Cardano's existing Rust-based serialization ecosystem.
CARDANO BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM CONSTITUTION v2.3
# Three-line summary: 1. Cardano Constitution v2.3 removes non-binding expectations, the Budget Info Action mechanism, and mandatory CC conduct rules, streamlining governance. 2. It adds clear definitions, enforces immutability of proposal documents, and applies treasury audit/accountability safeguards to all withdrawals. 3. Community review of v2.0 had 86.23% DRep participation, and v2.3 incorporates feedback and improvements, addressing prior concerns to reinforce legitimacy and broad input. # Three helpful links 1.
