How to create Cardano wallet
Cardano, founded in 2017, is a proof-of-stake blockchain network with its own cryptocurrency called ADA that enables decentralized applications via a multi-asset ledger and smart contracts. It collaborates with top academics to create innovative solutions that are peer-reviewed and presented at international conferences.
Cardano launched the Vasil hard fork in September 2022 to enhance smart contract capabilities, increase chain throughput, lower costs, and improve transaction validation.
To fully own ADA, first create a new Coin Wallet account. Coin Wallet is a software wallet that only keeps your private keys on your device. It allows you to purchase, sell, exchange, receive, and store ADA.
