    "rationale": "I am voting YES on the TxPipe Tx3 proposal.\n\nI have considered this proposal carefully because, unlike the lower-level TxPipe maintenance proposals I have already supported, Tx3 sits higher in the developer stack. It is not simply core library maintenance. It is an open API/interface layer intended to make Cardano dApp protocols easier to describe, integrate with, and consume.\n\nHowever, I believe this proposal still fits within my broader “fund the rails before the growth bets” approach.\n\nTx3 aims to help protocol authors define reusable interfaces for UTxO-based dApp interactions, allowing wallets, applications, SDKs, agents and other tools to generate typed clients and build transactions against those protocols more reliably. This can reduce integration friction, improve developer experience, and make Cardano applications easier to compose and connect.\n\nCardano’s UTxO model is powerful, but dApp interaction remains harder to standardise than in account-based ecosystems. A common interface layer for protocol interactions could become valuable infrastructure if adopted widely and kept open.\n\nI also view this proposal differently from large commercial growth, liquidity, or treasury-capital deployment proposals. The ask is 1,684,050 ADA, which is material but comparatively modest relative to many live treasury requests. It is Cardano-native, developer-facing, open-source oriented, and linked to a credible technical team with a strong delivery history across the ecosystem.\n\nIn the current NCL environment, I remain cautious on broad growth asks, private commercial subsidies, and large DeFi or treasury-investment programmes. But I am willing to support focused proposals that strengthen the technical rails builders use to create applications on Cardano.\n\nMy support is not unconditional. I would expect clear reporting on protocol onboarding, SDK generation, adoption by external teams, documentation quality, open-source delivery, and evidence that Tx3 becomes an ecosystem tool rather than a narrow TxPipe-specific layer.\n\nOn balance, I believe this proposal is a proportionate investment in Cardano developer infrastructure and dApp composability.\n\nFor these reasons, I vote YES."
