the Cardano Constitution is an amazing start
but I would have voted "NO" on the current constitutional text, and am glad my PR delegate did just that (without my influence)
Intersect needs to (and will) be put in check, both with upcoming amendments to the Constitution, and as the community continues to further infiltrate the organization with future elections
it saddens me so few seem to acknowledge the severe conflict of interest with having the same entity lead the charge to position themselves to administer the budgets for Cardano as well as the drafters of the constitution
in participating within Intersect, I can see the special interests gathering for their shots to cherry-pick the treasury - many of which will do so with endeavors that extract more value from Cardano than they give - all I will say for now on that is reputations have been completely ruined and many of those offenders don't quite know it just yet
the 2025 budget should be minimal as we find our footing - 2025 will likely entail the largest treasury withdrawal to occur across all Cardano history, both future and past - and not being extremely conservative prior to achieving a community-established vision is irresponsible - 200M Ada is FAR too much
from a product perspective we made great progress in Argentina on a product roadmap vision for Cardano that will create a magnificent landscape where our entrepreneurs can find product-market-fit and win
expect the Intersect Product Committee to begin socializing and facilitating community feedback in the very near future to help further shape the vision for Cardano
I love this ecosystem, and pledge to defend her from enemies both foreign and domestic
we're going to win, but it's not going to be easy
