CIP-0100: Development Fund Governance Update 🔔

CIP-0100 is now approved, formalizing how Canton Network’s 5% Development Fund (CIP-0082) is governed.

- Proposal submission
- Milestone-based grants
- Ongoing accountability

Transparency & Reporting 📊

You can expect:
- Quarterly public reporting on receipts, balances, commitments, disbursements, and outcomes
- Annual independent audit/attestation of the fund

How Funding Works 💧

Funding is designed to be earned through delivered milestones:
- Recipients mint CC directly when milestones are verified

Sustain long-term investment in core protocol R&D, developer tooling, security, audits, and ecosystem infrastructure that compounds utility over time. @Announcements
