Mina Foundation Httpz is a Swiss public-benefit foundation that supports the Mina Protocol ecosystem through grants, network health, community growth, and ecosystem development. Mina Foundation Httpz's Twitter Score is 11 out of 1000 as of August 2026, ranking #84,506 among 483,944 tracked accounts.
Mina Foundation Httpz was founded by Evan Shapiro, who proposed the Mina Genesis Block and coordinated the network's first block producers before stepping away from his foundation role in March 2025. Josh Cincinnati became interim CEO and President of the Board at that point. The foundation is fully independent of o1Labs, which originally incubated Mina and continues as an ecosystem contributor.
Mina Foundation Httpz has undergone a significant restructuring since 2020. In 2025, it transferred core operational responsibilities, including engineering, marketing, community growth, tools, grants, and delegation, to o1Labs, committing the equivalent of two years of runway for personnel making that transition and one year of grant and ecosystem-growth spending. The foundation has since narrowed its focus to designing, funding, and deploying a decentralized treasury. As of May 2026, a working decentralized-treasury MVP had been completed, with security reviews conducted by zkSecurity and Trail of Bits, higher-severity findings remediated, and deployment being prepared subject to the MESA upgrade. The foundation has stated its intention to eventually deploy the majority of its MINA holdings to the decentralized treasury and wind down in accordance with applicable law and regulatory approval, though that wind-down had not yet occurred as of that update.
Mina Foundation Httpz's native token, MINA, launched on mainnet in March 2021 with an initial distribution of 805,385,694 MINA, of which 6.0% was allocated to the foundation's endowment. In April 2021, the foundation conducted a community token sale through CoinList representing 7.5% of the initial distribution. The Mina ecosystem raised $92 million through strategic and private MINA sales in March 2022, a round led by FTX Ventures and Three Arrows Capital, with participation from Alan Howard, Amber Group, Blockchain.com, Brevan Howard, Circle Ventures, Finality Capital Partners, and Pantera, among others.
