ADAvaultWe recommend checking out the proposal on GitHub for CIP1694 that proposes an approach for Governance of Cardano in the Voltaire era. It’s an elegant and impressive document, both for the obvious thought that has gone into it, and for the simplicity that has been achieved for what is a very complex topic. The core…
There’s been a lot of talk in recent days about a proposal for Contingent Staking (CS) which could be implemented on Cardano to enable SPO’s to set conditions that delegators must meet, such as their nationality. This could technically implemented by using DIDs, necessary metadata and a multi-sig transaction for delegation. This proposal has caused…
A short and non exhaustive list of things we have to look forward to across the Cardano ecosystem in the coming months through 2023: A lot to look forward to… we’ll keep updating this post with links, and comments on these and why they matter.
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:…
