Budget Buckets
Budget Buckets
In the Cardano budget process, the budget is divided into five primary "buckets," each with a specific purpose aligned with Cardano’s strategic and operational goals:
Core Development: Funds essential operations and technical improvements, maintaining and expanding Cardano’s core blockchain features.
Governance Support: Provides resources for governance structures, including DReps and Constitutional Committee activities, to uphold Cardano's decentralized governance.
Research: Supports ongoing blockchain research and innovation.
Outreach and Education: Promotes Cardano through educational programs, community engagement, and global outreach to expand adoption and understanding.
Community Grants: Allocates funds for community-led projects and initiatives, to foster ecosystem growth through decentralized innovation.
Each bucket is strategically defined to ensure Cardano’s continued development, governance, and community involvement in a balanced and impactful way.
