I'm voting Yes on the Withdraw 3,810,423 ada for Mithril Protocol proposal. Mithril is protocol-layer infrastructure that solves a problem specific to Cardano. Right now, a new node has to sync from genesis, which takes a long time. Mithril uses stake-based multi-signatures to certify chain state in a trustless way, so a full node can be bootstrapped in under 20 minutes and light clients can verify state without relying on centralized trust. The main reason I support this is that Mithril solves a problem at a layer no other project is addressing, and it's effectively the only Cardano-native solution at that layer. The more we move into an era of multiple node implementations like Amaru and Dingo, the bigger Mithril's role becomes. For these reasons, I'm voting Yes.
