Cardano is hailed as one of the smartest projects in the crypto world. Yet when you ask around or even try to read around, few people can really give you a concise overview of what Cardano is really all about, because it’s so complicated. Key words like Daedalus and Oborous and Haskell ring a bell, but what do they really all mean? Today, in this post, we will explain to you “Everything about Cardano”.

To really understand Cardano, you need to understand 2 aspects of the project, its philosophy and its tech.

We’re gonna take a look first at its Philosophy and a little bit of background:

There are three companies behind the Cardano project, Cardano Foundation, IOHK (which stands for input output Hong Kong) and Emurgo.

From the name Cardano, one might have the impression that the Cardano Foundation was the company behind the engineering of the Cardano project. But its actually IOHK who is responsible for the design and development of the Cardano project.
