What to know about Dai and Cardano
Dai
Dai (DAI) is a decentralized dollar stablecoin created by the Maker protocol (MakerDAO) in 2017 and now part of the Sky ecosystem. Unlike USDT or USDC, DAI is not issued against bank deposits: it is created by users who lock crypto collateral in smart contracts.
Sending and receiving DAI
DAI is an ERC20 token on Ethereum and is also available on other networks such as BNB Smart Chain and Polygon. Check the network before sending and keep some of the native coin for fees.
Cardano (ADA)
Cardano (ADA) is a Proof of Stake blockchain launched in 2017 and led by Charles Hoskinson, one of the co-founders of Ethereum. The project is known for its research-driven, peer-reviewed approach to development.
How Cardano works
Cardano uses the Ouroboros consensus protocol, with a block about every 20 seconds, and an extended UTXO model. ADA holders can delegate to stake pools without locking their coins. The maximum supply is 45 billion ADA.
