Overview
CGOV Treasury is a public dashboard that shows how money from a shared community fund gets spent: how much is in it, who asked for it, and who received it1. Voters, researchers and curious holders can use it to follow spending requests and check what each team has been paid, without digging through raw records. Each funded organization gets its own page with its funding history2.
The fund it tracks is the Cardano treasury, a pool of ADA that the community spends through treasury withdrawal proposals put to a vote under Cardano governance. CGOV Treasury is the treasury tab of CGOV, an open-source governance platform3 built by Nomos, a guild formed by the developer teams Mesh and SIDAN Lab4.
Key Features
- See the fund at a glance. Header cards show the treasury balance, the funds requested by open proposals, and how many treasury proposals have been submitted, with active, passed and failed counts1.
- Spending broken down by year and recipient. A chart groups approved, requested and rejected ADA by organization and by proposal, with filters for a single year or a single status1.
- A funding history for each team. The Funded Entities view lists organizations that have received treasury money, such as Input Output and Intersect, each with its total received and number of proposals2.
- Trace each payment back to its vote. Entity pages split approved, requested and rejected amounts by year and list each funded proposal with its status, such as ratified (approved by vote) or enacted (the withdrawal has taken effect), linking to the full proposal page5.
- Read the figures in seven languages. CGOV Treasury has English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese versions, each at its own web address1.
What to Expect
You land on one page with the headline numbers at the top and a spending chart below. Switching from Treasury Spending to Funded Entities replaces the spending chart with a card for each funded organization. Clicking an organization opens its page, where a small table shows what it was approved, what it still has pending, and what was turned down, year by year2,5. No sign-up is needed to browse. The optional CGOV AI chat at the bottom of the page needs a Cardano wallet connection and runs on SidanClaw from SIDAN Lab1.
For voters, especially DReps (delegated representatives who vote on behalf of ADA holders), the page answers a practical question before a vote: how much has this team already received, and did its earlier requests pass? ADA holders and reporters can use the same pages to see which organizations the treasury funds and how spending splits across years.
The treasury tab sits inside the wider CGOV app. The CGOV proposals dashboard covers the other kinds of governance votes, such as protocol rule changes and constitution updates3, and CGOV DReps profiles the representatives who cast those votes. People who want to compare tools can browse other treasury trackers. Developers can read the site's code on GitHub, published under the Apache-2.0 license, with a separate repository for the backend server that supports it3.
