Happy birthday, Cardano 🎂
9 years of building a decentralized network—and a community capable of sustaining it.
Today, nearly 2,900 stake pools help secure Cardano, more than 13.9 million blocks have been produced, and nearly 124 million transactions have moved across the network.
Cardano now has on-chain governance, a ratified Constitution, DReps, and tens of thousands of votes shaping its direction.
I’m grateful that DRMZ has contributed to that story as a stake pool, and that I’ve had the opportunity to participate personally as both a Constitutional Convention delegate in Buenos Aires and a DRep.
Nine years in, Cardano is still here because people keep building, staking, governing, educating, experimenting, and showing up.
Proud to be one of them.
Here’s to 9 more 💜
Nine years ago, Cardano's first block was minted.
Since then:
2,890 stake pools.
13,978,119 blocks.
123,982,111 transactions.
A constitution, ratified on-chain.
36,322 votes on 158 governance actions.
And a vibrant community behind all of it.
Here's to many more years. 🎂
