📢 Attention #Blockchain Developers: Are you interested in building a solution on a widely distributed and highly secured network?

#Cardano's proof-of-stake (PoS) algorithm, #Ouroboros, offers key benefits over other well known protocols in the industry.

Thread (1/5) ⤵️
💡 Energy Efficiency

Proof-of-work (PoW) protocols such as #Bitcoin are energy intensive. Cardano runs using a tiny fraction of that energy, while still adhering to high security standards.

Consuming much less energy enables Cardano to be much more scalable.

🌍 Scalability

Ouroboros Hydra is Cardano’s off-chain scalability protocol.

With Hydra, speed increases and latency decreases as the network scales. It has potential to process a million transactions per second, which would surpass global systems such as #Visa.

🔒 Security

Ouroboros is the world's first provably secure PoS protocol. It is based on formal methods and peer reviewed academic research.

A well-constructed blockchain ensures security with #decentralization.

Cardano will operate with ≈ 1,000 stake pools.
