Cardano Decentralised Deputy Diary. Text 20
Hello, my readers and everyone interested in Cardano and blockchain governance.
Date: 19 May 2026
Voting Power: ₳ 780 744
Today - many votes. Here is my complete list of votes:
1 . [OriLife × TonFarm] Identifying 180 Million Durians Without Physical Labels
Voted No.
Reasoning: After reading I don't see the reason to support this project, I think there are much more interesting and crucial.
2 . The first node in the browser; a Cardano USP
Voted No.
Reasoning: While the idea looks interesting, I don't see the need to spend 1 mln $ on browser node. Who will run it? SPOs, Dapp developers and technically educated enthusiasts have all the necessary conditions and skills to run the node as it is now.
3 . Pebble & Ecosystem maintenance: TypeScript core of Cardano
Voted Yes.
Reasoning: If in brief: TypeScript is important as one of the most-used language among Cardano developers, so I decided to vote Yes.
4 . Cardano Vision 2026: Human Centred, Scalable, Post Quantum Secure - IO Research
Voted Abstain.
Reasoning: I wanted to vote "Yes", because anyway IO did the most Cardano-related research work. But the huge budget of 32916000 ADA, which is now (at the moment of voting) more than $8 million dollars made me to choose Abstain.
5 . Cardano dOSPO and OMF Program
Voted No.
Reasoning: 12 million ADA is huge amount. I think such and similar project should seek the smaller and modest funding via Project Catalyst and go through the process of community checking, reviews and voting.
6 . Scalus: Cardano’s Application Platform for Building, Launching, and Scaling
Voted No.
Reasoning: Big amount and the Treasury is limited. Once again I Ithink such and similar project should seek the smaller and modest funding via Project Catalyst and go through the process of community checking, reviews and voting.
7 . Eternl: Path to Sustainability (2026-2027)
Voted Yes.
Reasoning: Eternl is well-known company in Cardano ecosystem. While I mostly use other wallets now, I remember my good experience with Eternl, especially using Dapps, etc. The budget is relatively modest comparing with other Treasury withdrawal proposals. Additional plus I see in transparency with providing information about Catalyst proposals which Eternl team won, and the idea to return Ada to the treasury if the price increases. So if in brief - I'm confident that existence and development of Eternl will be beneficial to the Cardano ecosystem.
I'll get back to you in few days or few weeks.
Best regards,
