Why the Cardano blockchain?
Cardano is a blockchain platform for changemakers, innovators and visionaries. It is the first blockchain platform to be founded on peer-reviewed research and developed through evidence-based methods. Cardano is open-source with more advanced features than any protocol yet developed. And it incorporates IOHK’s groundbreaking Proof-of-Stake (POS) algorithm Ouroboros, which significantly increases the resilience necessary for mission-critical systems and in theory reduces energy consumption by over millionfold compared to Bitcoin.
