Abstract
The Cardano Foundation (CF), supported by Input Output Group (IOG), is requesting community approval to be appointed as the new managing entity for Project Catalyst.
This will allow for full and effective transition of Catalyst operations and responsibilities from IOG to CF in accordance with the statutes of the Catalyst Foundation Company (CFC). This transition will ensure continuity of operations and minimise delays on milestone reviews and eligible payouts for teams delivering against projects in Funds 10-14.
This approval request and Info Action is unrelated to Intersect’s role as the constitutionally mandated budget administrator for funds 14 to 16. This request is also unrelated to the already announced return to the Cardano Treasury of the previously approved allocations for Fund 15 and 16.
This Info Action will be considered approved, if greater than 50% of the active DRep voting stake votes YES upon the action's expiration.
