The Indigo Protocol enables the creation and management of synthetic assets, providing access to decentralized financial tools with the security and scalability of the Cardano blockchain.
The Indigo Foundation connects the DAO to the real world. It manages resources, fosters relationships, and provides structure to the ecosystem. Its goal is long-term stability and growth through community-driven initiatives.
The foundation supports the Indigo DAO, the decision-making body composed of INDY token holders, who actively vote on proposals to shape the ecosystem (e.g., introducing a new iAsset or updating parameters).
Indigo Labs drives development efforts, working on new features and enhancements, such as Protocol V2. The team is elected by the DAO.
Indigo also relies on working groups, elected by the DAO, that focus on key objectives supporting various elements of the ecosystem.
-
PWG (Protocol Working Group): Focuses on strategic protocol development and adjustments.
-
TWG (Technical Working Group): Serves as a technical advisory group.
-
POG (Protocol Outreach Group): Prioritizes community engagement, education, and outreach.
Together, the Indigo ecosystem — starting with the DAO, and including the foundation and working groups — is building a decentralized future where finance is open, accessible, and driven by community collaboration.
