Cardano

After a disagreement with Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Hoskinson ventured out on his own to create a blockchain improving on issues including scalability and interoperability. Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, Cardano is a proof-of-stake blockchain platform, which many consider to be a more sustainable and energy-friendly alternative to proof-of-work.

Cardano was founded by Charles Hoskinson, the co-founder of Ethereum. Development of the blockchain platform began in 2015 and was launched in 2017.
