WHAT IS CARDANO $ADA
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.
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.
Proof-Of-Stake And Ouroboros: The Most Environmentally Sustainable Blockchain Protocol
Ouroboros is the first peer-reviewed, verifiably-secure blockchain protocol, and Cardano is the first blockchain to implement it. Ouroboros enables decentralization in the Cardano network on a sustainable scale for global requirements and most crucially, without compromising security.
The protocol is the result of tireless efforts, based on foundational research, propelled by a vision for more secure and transparent global payment systems, and provides the means to equitably redistribute power and control.
