When will Fund14 voting results be announced?
Community voting is underway after proposal submissions and the review period. Results are expected in the first week of October. Successful proposals will progress to onboarding, with funding and implementation slated for October through November.
Why are the Partners & Products allocations larger?
The Cardano Use Cases: Partners & Products category receives the most funding (8.5M ADA) to support high-volume, enterprise-grade solutions that accelerate mainstream adoption. Larger allocations reflect expected higher development costs and scaling requirements for production-ready systems.
