IO Global has submitted nine treasury proposals for Cardano's 2026 roadmap, focusing on the Leios scaling upgrade expected to enter testnet in June and launch mainnet by late 2026. The proposals request just under 50% of last year's funding and aim to increase transaction throughput by 10 to 65 times while preserving Cardano's consensus mechanism. The plan includes Layer 2 solutions like Hydra and Midgard rollup, developer tools improvements, and new economic features such as multi-token transaction fees. Voting on these proposals remains open until May 24, supporting Cardano's goal to scale from 800,000 to over 27 million transactions per month and expand use cases in DeFi, real-world assets, and enterprise applications.
