[BIP-873] Balancer Ecosystem Roadmap Proposal and Funding

We at kpk are supportive of this roadmap initiative.

A unified framework for Balancer’s goals, resources, and contributors is an important step forward in maturity for the DAO. It reduces fragmentation, improves predictability, and enables contributors to focus on execution rather than navigating recurring proposal cycles. From our perspective, this alignment of priorities also strengthens accountability and makes treasury management more effective, as resources can be deployed in support of a coherent set of long-term objectives.

From a treasury management standpoint, we see two key ways to add value to this roadmap:

  • Treasury alignment and capital allocation — We can map each roadmap initiative to specific funding buckets (short-term, mid-term, long-term) and ensure liquidity runway is maintained while still supporting strategic initiatives. Using our IPS and allocation models, we can make trade-offs transparent and give stakeholders clarity on how resources are prioritized.
  • Reporting and accountability — We can integrate roadmap milestones into treasury reporting so that funding flows are clearly tied to measurable progress. Regular “State of the Treasury vs. Roadmap” updates would demonstrate how capital deployment aligns with objectives, enhancing accountability and transparency across the DAO.

We look forward to collaborating with contributors and stakeholders to ensure that treasury resources are deployed efficiently and that a clear, measurable financial plan backs the roadmap.
