What is Cardano (ADA)?

Cardano was created in 2017 by a former founding member of the Ethereum team and it aims to solve the problems of Ethereum, which suffers from low transaction throughput and high transaction prices. Cardano achieves speed by creating "fast lanes" to process transactions, keeping all other usage separated. The founder of Cardano, who happens to be a mathematician, also made scientific peer-reviews required for any technology changes, in hopes to ensure long-term quality of the project.

Cryptohunt's Opinion

Our take on Cardano

There is a lot to like about Cardano. In functionality, it can rival the capabilities of Ethereum, which means it is programmable to build an entire digitial financial system. At the same time, using it is highly affordable, making it a logical alternative. What remains to be seen is if it can attract enough developers from Ethereum and competing blockchains to become the leading solution - and in fact, competitors like Solana and Avalanche are growing at a faster pace.

I think Cardano or ADA is cheap to use. It costs a few cents to make transaction while the transaction is made in a few seconds. But there is still little to discover on Cardano.
