Blockchain education, outreach, and global community building:
Because the Future is for Everyone!
Cardano is a network that uses third-generation blockchain technology that is uniquely fast, useful, and earth-friendly. Blockchains are all about decentralization - shared work, shared responsibility, and shared rewards. This applies to the technology of course, but it also applies to the people. Where do you fit in?

Reviews
MuesliSwap.com Review
- MuesliSwap is a decentralized exchange on the Cardano blockchain that provides classic Order Book swaps, AMM swaps, liquidity pools for 47 tokens (at present), farming, and staking. Although they exist as a desktop-only site, their recent partnership with Eternl Wallet means they are available in the "swap" section of both the desktop and mobile versions of the Eternl Wallet.
- Though their UX/UI typically comes second or third best among Cardno DEXs for style and new-user ability, their "under-promise, over-deliver" methods have garnered a loyal following.
- Their thorough "?Support" channel in their Discord is highly responsive with enthusiastic representatives.
ccvault.io Wallet Review
- ccvault.io is a Cardano wallet for Chrome and Firefox browsers, or Android and iPhone mobile devices. ccvault.io provides a full set of features for interfacing with Cardano to receive and send ADA and NFTs, vote, manage stake pool delegation, and interact with decentralized applications (DApps).
- ccvault.io gets high marks for having many great features: over 17 to date. However it has room to grow in the areas of newcomer-friendly interface and user experience.
