Quick post on a recent whiteboard video from Charles covering side chains and digging into the architecture of Cardano. He explores the original essay which outlined a settlement layer (essentially Ourobouros which is now in place) with highly secure, reliable and decentralised characteristics, and associated computation layers (or side Chains) which can rely on the…
Cardano will be getting some new cryptographic primitives soon. Thinking that sounds complex? And why does it matter? You are not alone we suspect. To make it easier for developers to build cross-chain applications, Input Output Global (IOG) is adding new built-in functions to Plutus to support ECDSA and Schnorr signatures. As Tim Harrison explains:…
A recent article by Emurgo reminded us that there is a massive strength that Cardano has that is somewhat unremarked on and under appreciated; Native Tokens. Unlike all other Blockchains using Smart Contracts to create layer 2 tokens, such as Ethereum which uses the ERC-20 standard for fungible tokens, Cardano allows for Tokens to be…

The Cardano community is entering a new era, one where the community’s voice is becoming stronger than ever. To celebrate, IOG hosted a two-day virtual event to showcase all of the features of Cardano and the extensive…
