# User Flow

## Cardano Fndn Use Case

STEP 1: Stake ADA via Helix Validator 100M ADA → Helix Cardano Validator → Receive 100M hstADA ✓ Earning 5% staking yield ✓ Maintain governance voting rights

STEP 2: Transfer hstADA to Canton via ICP Chain Fusion 100M hstADA → Chain Fusion Proof → 100M hstADA on Canton ✓ Cryptographic verification (no bridge risk)

STEP 3: Lock Collateral in Helix CDP Lock 100M hstADA (worth $50M at $0.50/ADA) Collateralization ratio: 200% → Borrow $25M USDC

STEP 4: Deploy Borrowed Capital $25M USDC → Canton institutional lending (LendOS) → Earn 15% APY on lent capital

```
DUAL YIELD OUTCOME:
Base: 5% on 100M ADA = $2.5M/year
Canton: 15% on $25M USDC = $3.75M/year
Total: $6.25M/year revenue
Foundation maintains: ADA governance participation + staking position
