Since the formal launch of smart contracts in 2021, the Cardano community has launched and funded hundreds of companies building on the Cardano blockchain. Cardano’s growing ecosystem is hosting an ever-expanding universe of applications supporting significant numbers of active users – it’s critical for the success of the ecosystem that Cardano-based projects thrive, and so we are pleased that the ADA Yield Fund is committing substantial financial resources to facilitate continued growth and market acceptance.
DeFi dApps are the most popular in cryptoDeFi dApps have always been among the most popular in the space, attracting users and bringing new applications on-chain. DEXs are typically set up with two pools of assets representing the trading pairs. Counterparties trade against them when they want to transact on either side of the pair.
The purpose of the ADA Yield Fund is to provide liquidity to these pools as a way of supporting DEXs on Cardano. Similar support will be available to DeFi lenders to augment liquidity, thereby alleviating lending.
Global blockchain company and VC fund EMURGO is among Cardano’s early supporters. Ken Kodama, its founder and CEO said:
EMURGO is excited to support the creation of this valuable ADA Yield Fund to further drive expansion and adoption of Cardano’s quickly developing DeFi ecosystem. Providing strategic capital resources through the fund will help talented entrepreneurs and projects to build essential DeFi services on Cardano, ultimately delivering impactful solutions and onboarding more users to the global Cardano community.
