Changing the Cardano treasury could be the key to unlocking the potential of the project as its $1.7 billion treasury could become self-sustaining and thus generate yield to improve the liquidity and the use of DeFi.
With the decision of Hoskinson to transform a part of the treasury of Cardano into stablecoins and Bitcoin, he aims to make Cardano one of the key players in the DeFi sector that has this huge discrepancy of stablecoin-to-TVL ratios.
The proposal by Hoskinson entailed the establishment of a transparent governance board that will guide the management of the treasury to achieve sustainable growth and stabilization of Cardano ecosystem within the competitive blockchain environment.
Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano (ADA), recently shared his bold vision to reshape the financial landscape of the Cardano blockchain by reimagining its treasury. Currently, the Cardano treasury holds approximately $1.7 billion in ADA, with a minimal allocation of stablecoins. According to Hoskinson, instead of allowing this significant amount of ADA to remain idle, the treasury could be used to generate income through strategic investments. Hoskinson has proposed that $100 million of the treasury be converted into stablecoins such as USDM, USDA, iUSD, and Bitcoin (BTC), offering an opportunity to earn yield and boost liquidity on the network.
A Self-Sustaining Wealth Fund for Cardano
Hoskinson’s proposal goes beyond a simple token swap. He envisions the creation of a sovereign wealth fund-style model that could generate annual yields of 5–10%. These returns would not only benefit the network but also help to buy back ADA, further strengthening the treasury. In his view, such a strategy could create a self-sustaining cycle, where yields are reinvested to grow the treasury, which would in turn stimulate the Cardano ecosystem.
Cardano treasury contains between 30-33 million stablecoins, which is a considerable difference when compared to such blockchain giants as Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL). With a market cap of stablecoin at $125 Billion and a total value locked (TVL) at 61 Billion, Ethereum can be compared to Solana, which has its stablecoin market capitalization of 10.45 billion dollars with 8 billion DeFi locked. One of the paths toward resolving this shocking gap, Hoskinson thinks, is to align Cardano with the strategies powered by stablecoins, which will serve to promote its DeFi to an even greater extent.
Community Governance Community Oversight
The main point of the plan of Hoskinson is governance. He recommends the establishment of a board of reputable members of the community to govern the proposed sovereign wealth fund and whose management is finally transparent. This board would decide on the course of its investments such that money is wisely invested to give decent returns. Hoskinson is confident that a well-managed, correctly invested treasury of the Cardano can contribute to the stability of the industry in the long term and the interest of DeFi developers to use the network.
Although some sections of society fear that with such a plan, the time needed to achieve a price increase will be long, other sections of society view this tactic as one that will lead to a sense of stability and growth in the future. The plan by Hoskinson has the ability to offer the liquidity required to ensure that Cardano can compete with other blockchain networks especially in the fast growing DeFi industry. With this plan in motion, Cardano may create a new definition of what a blockchain treasury can do in terms of decentralized finance expansion.
