Ouroboros

Cardano, the eighth in the world in market capitalization, reached a landmark achievement last week in recording its 10 millionth block. This historical event was first brought into the public eye by a tweet from a Cardano user, Stakewithpride, on February 29, indicating that the milestone is approaching. The anticipated milestone was attained on the 1st of March, with the Cardano explorer, Adastat, confirming the count of the Cardano network’s blocks to be 10,000,224.

In contrast, Cardano distinguishes itself from other blockchains using an <a href="https://coingape.com/cardano-ada-developers-intensifies-work-on-p2p-functionalities/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">unspent Transaction Output </a>(UTXO) model separate from the account-based models used in networks like Ethereum. The EUTXO mechanism with the Alonzo upgrade has improved Cardano’s functionality, making handling multi-assets and smart contracts more efficient. This development highlights the platform’s persistence in advancement, represented by the 10 million blocks accumulated in its network.
At the operational level, Cardano bases its system on the Ouroboros consensus protocol, an innovative proof of stake protocol backed by <a href="https://coingape.com/charles-hoskinson-celebrates-cardanos-research-milestones/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">peer-reviewed research</a>. This protocol is essentially important for the security and efficiency of the network, determining which stakeholders or stake pools will be generating new blocks depending on the stake they have in the network. The successful accomplishment of the 10 million blocks milestones is characteristic of the strength and consistency of the Ouroboros protocol and represents a major advancement in the network’s constant growth.

The achievement of this milestone comes in a backdrop of buoyant sentiment in the crypto market, with Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies registering new tops. ADA, Cardano’s native coin, has performed commendably, seeing price levels last seen in May 2022. Although ADA’s price has increased by 1.65%, according to Coingape price list reports, <a href="https://coingape.com/price/cardano/#:~:text=Live%20Price%20of%20Cardano%20(ADA,market%20cap%20stands%20at%20%2424%2C404%2C449%2C128." rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ADA remains</a> strong at around $0.69, pointing out the market trust in Cardano’s potential and stability.
Additionally, The network has experienced increased activity and innovation, which played a substantial role in achieving the 10 million block milestone. The recent high point is that 624,000 ERG have been sent to Cardano, representing 0.85% of the ERG’s total supply. This occurrence reflects the increasing attractiveness of Cardano as a hub for creativity and growth, and cements its status in the wider crypto ecosystem.
