Cardano Inu (ADA)

Cardano’s DeFi awakening is being driven by more than technology. It needs governance, coordination, and a clear growth strategy.

@Dave__Dionisio, COO at @midgardprotocol, joins @alphagrowth1 to break down:

→ How its tri-cameral governance works
→ Why great tech still needs growth, marketing, and BD
→ How AlphaGrowth plans to connect Cardano DeFi, not compete with it

I'm voting No on the Strike Finance Liquidity Deployment proposal.

First off, I do recognize what Strike Finance has contributed to Cardano.

But, as much as it pains me to say it, Strike Finance in its current form is hard to even call a Cardano-native product. I'm voting No for two reasons.

1. The proposal says it will "increase on-chain trading activity," but Strike V2's trade execution happens off-chain on the Strike Node, and L1 only handles deposits, withdrawals, and settlement. What the treasury funds create isn't on-chain transactions or fees, but market-making liquidity for an off-chain CLOB.

On top of that, this off-chain processing doesn't even run on Hydra, the scaling solution built on Cardano's eUTXO model. It runs on Strike's own execution layer.

In other words, it isn't even going in the direction of using Cardano's own infrastructure to become a reference point for the ecosystem. So Strike Finance's growth in trading volume doesn't translate into a direct contribution to the Cardan
