About Blockchains

About Tezos Ecosystem

The Tezos ecosystem combines the secure foundation of Tezos with the scalability of Etherlink. Together, they create an open-source, EVM-compatible environment for assets and applications, backed by a global community of validators, researchers, and builders. Developers can seamlessly use Ethereum tools (wallets, indexers), transfer assets across EVM chains, and build in a permissionless, censorship-resistant setting with fast, fair, and nearly fee-free execution.

About Cardano

Cardano is a proof-of-stake blockchain platform: the first to be founded on peer-reviewed research and developed through evidence-based methods. It combines pioneering technologies to provide unparalleled security and sustainability to decentralized applications, systems, and societies.
