#ADA

Cardano and Ethereum are platforms for smart contracts, but they differ in structure and vision. Ethereum was launched first and relies on continuous updates like the transition to Proof of Stake (PoS), but it suffers from scalability issues, governance challenges, and poor coordination between layers. In contrast, Cardano was built in an academic manner based on research and peer review, and it enjoys clearer governance and an organized layered model. While Ethereum relies on external solutions for scalability, Cardano works on integrated and more cohesive solutions. The founder of Cardano believes that its structure is more sustainable in the long run, while he thinks Ethereum may face a fate similar to companies that did not evolve in time.
