Hoskinson advocates diversifying Cardano’s $1 billion treasury into yield-generating assets Proposal includes $100 million allocation toward Bitcoin and native stablecoins like USDM Strategy aims to create 10% annual returns while boosting Cardano DeFi ecosystem growth Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has outlined a comprehensive strategy to transform the blockchain’s $1 billion treasury into a yield-generating mechanism that could provide sustainable funding for ecosystem development. Speaking in a recent interview with David Gokhshtein, Hoskinson emphasized the need to move beyond passive asset holding toward active treasury management. The proposal centers on diversifying Cardano’s current single-asset treasury structure into a multi-asset portfolio capable of generating consistent returns. Hoskinson specifically suggested allocating $100 million from the treasury to purchase Bitcoin and Cardano native assets, including the USDM stablecoin, as part of a broader diversification initiative.

The first component involves deploying treasury funds into native stablecoins and channeling them into decentralized finance protocols to address what he describes as Cardano’s “lackluster stablecoin ecosystem.” By injecting $100 million worth of ADA into native stablecoin purchases and subsequent DeFi deployment, the strategy aims to increase total value locked (TVL) across Cardano’s financial applications. This influx of capital could stimulate activity across lending protocols, automated market makers, and other DeFi infrastructure currently struggling with limited liquidity. The second track focuses on Bitcoin acquisition as a mechanism to pioneer Bitcoin DeFi capabilities on Cardano.…
