What is Cardano?
✓ Proof-of-stake
✓ Smart contracts
✓ Research-driven
Cardano (ADA) is a proof-of-stake blockchain built for smart contracts. It's an open-source protocol that is based on rigorous peer-reviewed academic research and developed through evidence-based methods.
The network's native token is used to pay for smart contract operations and is called ADA, named after the 19th-century mathematician, Ada Lovelace. Cardano was founded by Charles Hoskinson, a mathematician and programmer who was also a co-founder of Ethereum.
Its long-term vision is to empower those who need it most with a more inclusive, secure, scientific-based technology standard. Moreover, Cardano is aiming to be the most environmentally sustainable blockchain platform.
