Cardano (ADA) is a decentralized public blockchain and cryptocurrency project. It is fully open source and aims to provide a more balanced and sustainable ecosystem for cryptocurrencies. Cardano is developing a smart contract platform which seeks to deliver more advanced features than any protocol previously developed. The platform is built through a scientific philosophy and a research-first driven approach.The Daedalus wallet, accessible at https://daedaluswallet.io/, is a secure, multi-platform wallet designed specifically for the Cardano network. It is developed by IOHK and serves as the official wallet for storing, sending, and receiving ADA, the native cryptocurrency of the Cardano network. The wallet supports a full node, meaning it downloads the complete Cardano blockchain and independently validates every transaction in its history, offering enhanced security and allowing users to contribute to the network's decentralization.
