Cardano

Proof-of-stake layer-1 blockchain launched in 2017, built around the Ouroboros consensus protocol and a research-led, peer-reviewed development process. ADA is its native token, used for staking, governance and transaction fees.

No single covered venue: this asset trades over the counter or across many venues at once — Global crypto venues. We name where it trades rather than pointing at a page that does not exist. The venues we do cover.
