Cardano launched a fund of 50 million ADA to promote stablecoin, DeFi, and RWA.

The Cardano Foundation has just proposed to allocate 50 million ADA ( equivalent to approximately 40.5 million USD ) into a new liquidity fund to promote the expansion of stablecoins and DeFi activities on the network.

This organization believes that the most urgent issue currently facing the Cardano ecosystem is limited liquidity. Increasing the supply of stablecoins will not only accelerate the adoption of the network but also provide a steady revenue source for the treasury.

According to Cardano Foundation:

"This proposal aims not only to deploy a treasury fund to serve the common interests of the Cardano blockchain and create a sustainable revenue stream, but also to open up many additional benefits for the entire ecosystem."

It is expected that the program could yield around 4% per year for the treasury, based on the correlation between trading volume and total value locked (TVL). The generated revenue will be allocated according to the mechanism: 15% will be converted to ADA to be reinvested in the treasury monthly, while 85% will continue to be reinvested in protocols to increase profits.

###The new roadmap of Cardano

The liquidity fund is just one part of the new roadmap that Cardano announced on the occasion of its 8th anniversary.

According to the plan, the Foundation will expand the Web3 Adoption team, focusing on integrations with exchanges, partnerships on tokenized assets, and deploying enterprise applications.

By 2026, Cardano is expected to commit 2 million ADA ( and 62 million USD ) to Venture Hub – a startup support program through collaboration with Draper University, Techstars, and CV Labs. Venture Hub will provide direct investment, loans, technical consulting, training, integration support, and other essential solutions for businesses.

In addition, Cardano has further expanded its progress into the field of tokenizing real assets (RWA). The Foundation revealed that the network has successfully tested with 10 million USD of tokenized real assets along with Members Cap, and will build a standard for issuing RWA and integrate the Cloudflare x402 payment framework via Masumi Network.

###Marketing Strategy and Management

In the context of fierce competition and rapidly changing legal frameworks, the Cardano Foundation announced that it will increase its marketing budget by an additional 12% by 2026. This resource will be allocated for content production, media promotion, and organizing global events.

Cardano will maintain a strong presence at major conferences such as TOKEN2049 and Consensus, while also co-hosting community events such as Africa Tech Summit 2026 and Digital Asset 2026 in London.

Regarding governance, the Foundation announced plans to expand the number of delegated representatives (DReps) participating in network operations. Specifically, 220 million ADA will be allocated to 11 new Adoption & Operations DReps, while the self-delegated amount will decrease to 80 million ADA.

This move follows the previous success, when Cardano allocated 140 million ADA to 7 Builder Delegated Representatives, contributing to increased decentralization and transparency in the governance of the ecosystem.
