Cardano taps treasury to fund Ouroboros Leios development

  • —Intersect disclosed progress on treasury initiatives No. 4 (Ouroboros Leios) and No. 17 (maintenance) on Sept. 22
  • —The Leios prototype splits rollback-able and finalized data into separate files, with block production in a separate module
  • —Support for protocol versions below 23 was dropped; version 23 shipped with node 10.7.0 in March 2026
  • —Active dashboard proposals include 11.79M ADA for OpenZeppelin and 120M ADA for Cardano PRIME
Why it matters: It shows how Cardano's treasury funds technical work and shifts scrutiny to execution transparency and reporting.
