What is Cardano?
Cardano (ADA) is the native token of the Cardano blockchain, designed for smart contracts, DeFi applications, and NFTs. Cardano’s smart contract platform uses a Proof of Stake (PoS) protocol to validate block transactions and secure the network. This allows Cardano holders to earn staking rewards and participate in network decisions via voting rights on proposed changes to the blockchain.
