Cardano is a decentralized proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain platform designed to enable positive global change. Built on peer-reviewed research and developed using evidence-based methods, Cardano aims to provide a secure, scalable, and sustainable infrastructure for decentralized applications and systems.
At the heart of Cardano is Ouroboros, the first peer-reviewed PoS protocol, engineered for energy efficiency without compromising security. It enables global scalability while minimizing environmental impact—making Cardano one of the most sustainable blockchain platforms.
Cardano empowers individuals by decentralizing power traditionally held by institutions. It supports innovation across finance, governance, and identity, fostering a transparent and inclusive ecosystem.
Backed by a network of independent organizations—like Input Output, Cardano Foundation, EMURGO, and Intersect—Cardano continues to evolve through community collaboration, research, and real-world use cases.
Cardano’s mission is simple: redefine how systems operate and return control to the individual.
