* 20% of treasury in recently approved, new strategies

**Question:** What goal/strategy when ETH appreciating in value?
**Answer:** 7k ETH in stables to maintain runway. Want to discuss next steps during bull market. Endownment doesn't trade/speculate on price. Goals: 1. Runway properly covered in stables. Will change based on new stream for service providers. (4 Years worth of runway) 2. Match liabilities with holdings in ETH.  


**Monthly Endowment Updates (@steakhouse)**
