Cardano describes itself as an updated version of Ethereum. One of Cardano’s primary aims is to provide banking to the unbanked population.
Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, Cardano uses a proof of stake (PoS) method to achieve consensus, which is claimed to use 75% less energy than Bitcoin.
Cardano is overseen by the Cardano Foundation, EMURGO AND Input-Output Hong Kong. One of the unique features of Cardano is that IOHK works alongside a global team of academics to review proposed platform updates ahead of launch to ensure success.
The Alonzo hard fork in September brought smart-contract functionality to the Cardano network. As a result, Cardano now supports Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT’s) and decentralized exchanges(DEX), making it a genuine rival to Ethereum. Cardano’s native token ADA, named after mathematician Ada Lovelace, surged in popularity following the Alonzo upgrade, climbing above $3.00 to become the third-largest cryptocurrency behind Bitcoin and Ethereum.
ADA’s supply is limited to 45 billion coins. Of which around 16% were awarded to the project’s founders.
