Cardano Blockchain
Cardano is a blockchain platform for changemakers, innovators, and visionaries, with the tools and technologies required to create possibility for the many, as well as the few, and bring about positive global change.
Our World Is Changing. Together, We Can Change It For The Better.
Cardano is a proof-of-stake blockchain platform: the first to be founded on peer-reviewed research and developed through evidence-based methods. It combines pioneering technologies to provide unparalleled security and sustainability to decentralized applications, systems, and societies. With a leading team of engineers, Cardano exists to redistribute power from unaccountable structures to the margins – to individuals – and be an enabling force for positive change and progress.
Benefits
Cardano restores trust to global systems – creating, through science, a more secure, transparent, and sustainable foundation for individuals to transact and exchange, systems to govern, and enterprises to grow.
Cardano brings a new standard in technology – open and inclusive – to challenge the old and activate a new age of sustainable, globally-distributed innovation.
Scalability
Cardano is designed to be highly scalable, capable of handling a large number of transactions per second (TPS), making it suitable.
Interoperability
Cardano aims to be interoperable with other blockchains, allowing for seamless transfer of assets and data between different blockchain networks.
Security
Cardano places a strong emphasis on security, with multiple layers of security protocols and mechanisms to protect against attacks and vulnerabilities.
Governance
Cardano has a decentralized governance model, allowing the community to participate in decision-making processes related to the platform's development.
Efficiency
Cardano design enables efficient cross-chain communication and transaction processing. This can lead to lower fees and faster transaction.
Sustainability
Cardano is focused on long-term sustainability, with a treasury system that funds ongoing development and maintenance of the platform.
What is an Ada
Ada Is The Native Token Of Cardano
It is named after Ada Lovelace: a 19th-century mathematician who is recognized as the first computer programmer, and is the daughter of the poet Lord Byron.
What Can I Do With Ada?
Ada is a digital currency. Any user, located anywhere in the world, can use ada as a secure exchange of value – without requiring a third party to mediate the exchange. Every transaction is permanently, securely, and transparently recorded on the Cardano blockchain
Every ada holder also holds a stake in the Cardano network. Ada stored in a wallet can be delegated to a stake pool to earn rewards – to participate in the successful running of the network – or found and run your own stake pool to increase the pool's likelihood of receiving rewards. In time, ada will also be usable for a variety of applications and services on the Cardano platform.
