What is Cardano?

Cardano is an open-source blockchain, which supports smart contracts. It is founded on first principles and a scientific research methodology, where systems, concepts and protocols are peer-reviewed by the brightest minds in academia. The Cardano platform will enable the safety and security that financial smart contracts need for mass adoption. Cardano aims to solve supply chain tracing issues and track unique items to make sure they are not fraudulent. Cardano’s native digital currency, ADA, has an ambitious goal of becoming a global financial system on the blockchain platform. ADA holders can spend Cardano globally with merchants connected to the blockchain.

To achieve their open-source vision, Cardano (ADA) has 5 distinct ‘eras’ of updates. These are Byron, Shelley, Goguen, Basho, Voltaire. Each era of Cardano is named after famous people in history. For example, Cardano is named after Geralamo Cardano, a famous Italian polymath.

Cardano has a unique team of people working on it and founded by two of the founders of Ethereum, Charles Hoskinson and Jeremy Wood. The three companies handling the Cardano project are the Cardano Foundation, Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK) and Emurgo. IOHK is the main company responsible for the engineering and development of Cardano. Emurgo is a Japanese company responsible for developing business relationships to drive the use of Cardano. The Cardano Foundation’s role is to drive the adoption of the Cardano blockchain among everyday users.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine the price of ADA?

Can I buy Cardano with debit card?

Swyftx allows you to deposit AUD into your account via debit card. Once funds have cleared, you can buy Cardano (ADA) instantly.
