Founder Charles Hoskinson proposed to use 140 million ADA (approximately 100 million USD) from the foundation's treasury to promote the development of the DeFi ecosystem, with plans to purchase Bitcoin (BTC) and Cardano's native stablecoins (USDM, USDA, IUSD). Following the announcement of this proposal, the ADA price dropped by 6%, and the community was divided on the issue. Some view it as a bold move towards ecosystem maturity, while others believe that given the current market conditions and governance issues, this action carries risks.
