¿Qué hace diferente a Cardano?
Predictable by design
Extended UTXO model
A Cardano transaction spends specific outputs and creates new ones, so its result and its fee can be checked before it is submitted. One transaction can have many inputs and outputs, paying several recipients or settling several trades together. Fees follow a fixed formula set by protocol parameters, not an auction.
Staking sin ataduras
Staking líquido y sin custodia
Delegar ada a un stake pool nunca retira los fondos de tu cartera. No existen periodos de bloqueo forzoso, ni requisitos mínimos más allá de un pequeño depósito reembolsable, ni slashing: el protocolo no puede confiscar tus ada como penalización. Puedes gastar o cambiar tu delegación en cualquier momento.
Gobernada en la propia cadena
Gobernanza y tesorería on-chain
Las actualizaciones del protocolo, el uso de la tesorería e incluso la constitución se proponen y deciden on-chain. Los titulares de ada votan de forma directa o delegan su voto en representantes (DReps). Los operadores de stake pools y un comité constitucional aportan controles y contrapesos.
Respaldada por la investigación
Revisión por pares y métodos formales
Los protocolos fundamentales de Cardano se concibieron primero como investigación académica, fueron revisados por la comunidad criptográfica y solo entonces, implementados. El nodo está desarrollado en Haskell y el libro mayor se construye mediante métodos formales, lo que permite verificar matemáticamente el código frente a su especificación.
