In late May, we opened up applications to join the first interim Constitutional Committee (ICC), the body that will uphold the interim Constitution and vote on the very first on-chain governance actions. Many individuals, organizations, and consortia from across the community applied to take on this significant responsibility. In doing so, and regardless of the outcome, they have contributed to the developing maturity and strengthening of Cardano’s governance.
As part of our commitment to administering and championing Cardano’s community-led governance, Intersect’s seat on the interim CC will comprise 10 Intersect members, with majority votes determining Intersect’s vote on the constitutionality of governance actions. This body will be known as the “Intersect Constitutional Council” and will be guided in its operations by a Charter (currently proposed and in draft). The Council’s first task will be to refine and finalize the draft Charter before all members are expected to sign and thereafter act in accordance with its principles.
Welcome to the nineteenth edition of the Intersect Development Report! We’re halfway into Intersect’s first year, and we want to thank all our members for working hard to shape Cardano’s and Intersect’s future!
We are pleased to share that the Interim Constitution is now live and available to read.
Welcome to the eighteenth edition of the Intersect Development Report! We’re approximately halfway into Intersect’s first year, and we want to thank all our members for working hard to shape Cardano’s and Intersect’s future!
Welcome to the seventeenth edition of the Intersect Development Report! This week’s update includes spotlights on Cardano’s roadmap, constitution call-to-actions, working group updates from Plutus and Consensus groups, DRep Pioneer workshops, Intersect events, and community hubs.
So, without further ado, let’s get into the update!

Welcome to the sixteenth edition of the Intersect Development Report! This week’s update includes many announcements and exciting developments: interim Constitutional Committee elections, applications for global constitutional workshops open, Intersect joins Hyperledger and the Linux Foundation, the members’ area is in beta release, and much more! |

We are thrilled to announce that Intersect, the member-based organization dedicated to the Cardano ecosystem, has joined the Hyperledger and Linux Foundations. This announcement was made during the Consensus event in Austin, Texas, marking a significant milestone in our journey toward open-source innovation and collaboration.
Minimum viable on-chain governance sums up several concepts and milestones that must work together to provide a cohesive and logical next-generation governance framework, signaling the road towards on-chain Cardano governance. The governance journey begins with an interim period to allow safe bootstrapping of on-chain governance through formal governance rules. These include off-chain protections and technical guardrails to protect the chain’s integrity and security as Cardano upgrades into a new era. The interim Constitution is an important document encapsulating these protections and must be in place to support the Chang upgrade and the subsequent bootstrapping period.
