Cardano
ADA


Project history
Cardano, which is a third generation blockchain platform launched in 2017, was the first blockchain platform to implement evidence-based scientific peer-reviewed processes prior to the release of any new product, service, or update on its platform. It pioneers innovative technologies with a mission to provide security and sustainability to decentralised applications, systems and societies globally.
Cardano staking
Sygnum offers an institutional-grade staking service for the Cardano protocol.
Staking is the process of actively participating in the validation of transactions on a Proof-of-Stake blockchain in exchange for staking rewards. Proof-of-Stake protocols employ significantly less energy than Proof-of-Work due to this alternative consensus mechanism. With the Cardano blockchain, delegators get rewards every epoch (five days) and can also access or withdraw their ADA at any time. Additionally, Cardano has no slashing penalties, which means delegators have complete control over their ADA.
