This news update we are looking at Project Catalyst voting numbers that are in Fund 11. How will this skew the outcome of Fund 11 and what can we do to make a change and improve Project Catalyst for the Cardano community.

I talk about various proposals that are looking at improving Catalyst, upcoming working groups that can be organised and alternative external funding sources from Government grants to getting close to VCs that can help you get your project funded.

I also touch on Minswap's voting process which is live now and Blockfrost selling to IOG. Nice exit.

All that and some highlight news stories from the Cardano ecosystem.
