About

The leader of the dev team is Charles Hoskinson, an experienced developer who worked for Ethereum and BitShares prior to the launch of Cardano. Cardano is the first cryptocurrency to use academically peer-reviewed open-source code, which makes this project quite unique. The consensus algorithm of Cardano is Proof-of-Stake. Cardano is usually praised for its high level of security and quick transactions. Cardano currency quickly gained value and became one of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
Tether is a cryptocurrency launched in 2014. It is a so-called stablecoin currently leading by market capitalization. Although according to the initial idea, each Tether was backed by $1 (that was going to keep the price of Tether stable), the company not always managed to maintain this price (at some point in October 2018 the price dropped to $0.9 per one Tether). Tether succeeds in terms of market capitalization and its price is almost all the time is really close to $1.
