#CardanoDebate Cardano’s $100M DeFi Move – Visionary or Risky Gamble?
Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has proposed a bold and controversial idea: using 140 million ADA (around $100 million) from the project’s treasury to buy Bitcoin and Cardano-native stablecoins like USDM, USDA, and iUSD. The goal? To inject fresh momentum into Cardano’s DeFi ecosystem.
However, the reaction has been mixed — and ADA’s price fell 6% right after the news.
Supporters believe this move could:
Bring real liquidity to Cardano-based DeFi apps
Help grow stablecoin usage on-chain
Attract new developers and users
Strengthen Cardano’s long-term ecosystem
Critics argue that:
This strategy is too risky in the current market
Treasury funds should support development, not asset purchases
The proposal lacks proper governance input
In the long run, if the plan works, it could increase Cardano’s total value locked (TVL), improve on-chain utility, and enhance the ADA token’s value. But if it fails, it may create distrust in how treasury funds are managed — and limit future innovation.
Your opinion matters: Is this the bold move Cardano needs — or a dangerous use of treasury assets?
