CARDANO ( ADA ) is the 17th coin on coinmarket just 3 days after listing
ADA is here to fight for space with the lead player of smart contracts - Ethereum. It's CEO is a former CEO of Ethereum - Charles Hoskinson.
Ada is now trading on Bittrex and as of today it's the 17th coin on coinmarketcap.com with a value of about 500 million USD.
This is a very huge valuation for a new coin and we are yet to see if it lives up to its promise .
ADA functions as a cryptocurrency and a smart contract platform while meeting the needs for increasing regulatory oversight in the blockchain space
A maximum of only 45 billion Ada will ever be in circulation, currently circulation is at about 24 billion, yes billion...almost like Ripple with 34 billion in circulation.
Why the large number of coins ? I can't seem to see the logic behind it but the team behind ADA have lots of experience and knowhow.
ADA is a full blockchain, built from scratch in the functional programming language Haskell. Because Haskell is similar to math in its approach, code can be written more precisely, resulting in a more secure and reliable protocol
At the heart of Cardano lies Ouroboros, a proof of stake consensus algorithm. While Bitcoin and most other cryptocurrencies rely on proof of work, where miners solve a cryptographic puzzle to reach consensus on the state of the ledger, proof of stake systems reach consensus by coin-holder vote
As a result, proof of stake is more energy efficient than proof of work. It also enables faster transactions and opens the door to governance schemes, where coin holders can have a say on how the protocol evolves.
Cardono is yet to prove that its a rigorous , sytematic project . Buying this coin early could be one of the best decisions you will ever make in the crypto space. its currently trading at $0.022157
How can I buy it early when its already ranked #15
