The Indigo Innovation Proposal is Live on Intersect 🚀

After months of intensive ideation, collaboration with DReps, and deep product design, we are proud to announce that the Indigo Innovation Proposal is officially live and available for review on the Intersect Hydra Voting Portal.

The support we received during the draft phase was overwhelmingly positive and has strengthened our resolve to deliver these solutions.

What the Indigo Innovation Proposal brings to Cardano:

🔹Institutional-Grade RWAs: Tokenized Short Duration Treasuries to Cardano via iUSDt, bridging the gap between institutional access and our ecosystem.

🔹BTC-Fi & Privacy: Integrating Bitcoin primitives and shielded iAssets via Midnight to expand the utility of the network.

🔹The V2030RS Framework: A Vision 2030 Revenue Share model designed to provide perpetual, sustainable revenue directly to the Cardano Treasury.

Now, we move into the most critical phase.

Your Action Needed: We invite every community member and DRep to review the proposal and show your support.

Candidates looking to win in November probably shouldn’t ignore these numbers.

Because it was the young voters who decided the last election. And it’s looking like history is going to repeat.

. @garygensler could have taken the same road as Japan to protect crypto investors.

Japan learned from Mt Gox and other failures and adapted to protect investors The Japanese versions of exchanges that went bankrupt here, survived in Japan !

Thank you @RoKhanna. You make the progressive case for sensible crypto rules well. It’s no different than the conservative case actually. Browbeating and regulation by enforcement alone does nothing to promote American innovation and jobs.

[Paul Grewal @iampaulgrewal]

SAB121 repeal passed with 21 D yes votes (listed below)— all despite an inexcusable presidential veto threat. Thank you to these independent thinkers. The political tides increasingly turn in favor of sensible rules for crypto. History is not going to be kind to the holdouts.

[Paul Grewal @iampaulgrewal]

Sensible SEC rules we need to protect investors and innovation by making it possible to actually come in and register? Nope.

Arbitrary and capricious SEC rules that only add to market risk? Have all you want.

The courts remain our last, best hope.

[Hayden Adams 🦄 @haydenzadams]

Today @Uniswap Labs received a Wells notice from the SEC.

I’m not surprised. Just annoyed, disappointed, and ready to fight.

I am confident that the products we offer are legal and that our work is on the right side of history. But it’s been clear for a while that rather than working to create clear, informed rules, the SEC has decided to focus on attacking long-time good actors like Uniswap and Coinbase. All while letting bad actors like FTX slip by.

When I first set out to build Uniswap, the goal wasn’t to reimagine finance.

It was an experiment in radically decentralized, fully automated onchain markets. I didn’t know if it would work or if anyone would use it.

Fast forward to today, the Uniswap Protocol has processed over $2 trillion in volume. Many thousands of teams and developers have forked our code or built on top of it. We built entirely new financial infrastructure that is transparent, fair, secure, and accessible powering an entire industry.

The team at @Uniswap did all of this in the US from our office in New York City.

People often ask me why we stay in the US and my answer is simple: I believe that blockchain is incredibly powerful technology. Like the Internet, it’s here to stay. So someone needs to figure it out, and it might as well be us.

And that when you build technology that improves people’s lives – you don’t need to hide.

The @SEC’s mission is “protecting investors, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitating capital formation.” This is a noble mission. I would argue @Uniswap does a far better job of this today than the SEC.

Yes, I'm frustrated that the SEC seems to be more concerned with protecting opaque systems than protecting consumers. And that we'll have to fight a US government agency to protect our company and our industry.

This fight will take years, may go all the way to the Supreme Court, and the future of financial technology and our industry hangs in the balance. If we stand together we can win.

I think freedom is worth fighting for. I think DeFi is worth fighting for.

And of course, we won’t stop shipping. Stay tuned

This is extremely interesting. Makes me even more bullish that Cardano is doing things the right way. Decentralization is Cardano’s super power.

The @SECGov's recent move against crypto exchange Kraken raises severe questions about regulatory overreach. We urge Congress to intervene and establish a fair regulatory landscape.

[The Digital Chamber @DigitalChamber]

The @SECGov's enforcement action against Kraken amplifies concerns about the agency's aggressive stance on the digital asset industry.

Congress must provide the legislative clarity needed to prevent overreach and unjust tactics.
