Cardano (ADA) is a third-generation blockchain platform focused on scalability, interoperability, and sustainability, built to run decentralized applications (dApps) with enhanced security and efficiency. Founded by Charles Hoskinson in 2017, Cardano uses a unique Proof of Stake (PoS) mechanism called Ouroboros, which is designed to be more energy-efficient than Proof of Work (PoW) systems. Cardano is built with a scientific approach, supported by peer-reviewed research and a layered architecture that separates the computation and settlement layers. ADA, Cardano's native cryptocurrency, is used for staking, paying transaction fees, and participating in the network's governance. Cardano's ecosystem is rapidly expanding, especially in areas like decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and digital identity.
