Cardano spent years building infrastructure correctly the first time
>90+ academic papers with hundreds of citations >Ouroboros Hydra layer2 - scales smart contracts and transactions >Hydra scales to 1million TPS >Cardano already has 1400+ stake pools >native asset standard - tokens are cheaper and simpler to work with >network fees can be paid in the token being transferred >E-UTXO allows for safer/easier network sharding >decentralized governance >decentralized treasury >Marlowe domain specific language for easily building secure financial contracts >IELE virtual machine - allows developers to create Cardano dapps in any popular language >hardfork combinator - safe/smooth upgrade forks (no accidental chain splits)
imagine two body builders, training to arm wrestle
2015 >Vitalik just starts lifting, >no understanding of muscle groups, proper form or diet >Charles studies deeply >how to lift, what to eat, etc
2020 >Vitalik has *some* muscle mass >but frequently tears muscles, most of his body is underdeveloped >Charles is rapidly catching up >optimal workout routine and pristine diet
Onwards >arm wrestle commences >chad Charles breaks virgin Vitalik's arm into 64 shards
Nobody gives a fuck ADA is a Ghostchain with Superior Tech to Ethereum But as we knowy nobody ever cared about great Tech and only about the first mover Advantage

>Ouroboros proof of stake - formally verified and provably secure >inspired much of Polkadot's BABE consensus mechanism
>frictionless/user-friendly staking - no slashing lockup or minimum stake
>Plutus - functional programming language (similar to Haskell / written by some of it's creators) >Cardano team has deep understanding of Ethereum infrastructure, from their work on ETH/ETC node clients (ex: Mantis)
>governance-as-a-service for projects inside/outside Cardano
>digital identity/credential standard (Atala PRISM) >product authentication standard (Atala SCAN) >supply chain provenance standard (Atala TRACE) >meta-data standard
>consistently transparent with their technology and product updates >one of the largest communities in crypto
>formal commercial adoption strategies >focus on developing nations - fastest growing economies, youngest demographics and the strongest need for crypto >MoUs with governments of Ethiopia, Mongolia and Georgia
>collaborated with New Balance to provide authentication >working closely with SingularityNet / Ben Goertzel (the genius behind 'Sophia the Robot') >most crypto influencers speak positively of Cardano
>nobody ever cared about great Tech and only about the first mover Advantage dozens of examples prove the opposite global financial infrastructure needs to be watertight and built with rigor whereas Ethereum is fragile and poorly conceived

Well if you know you know

Overpriced useless ETH killer 5983983 ? Haha. YIKES.
Wait for Glitch.

It's absolutely fucking true though.
ADA is a great technology -- but it has to be Apple overtaking Windows to fucking make it. Do I think the madman can do it? Yeah, but also I'm not betting the farm on it.

Algorand is the better tech fag

How many eth killers have been made by a co-founder of Eth?
All hail our billion dollar Burger King. If Eth makes it, Cardano won't. Will Eth make it? I don't fucking know.
