This significantly speeds up transactions and reduces costs. The American emphasized that the scaling solution can currently process more than 1,000 transactions per second. In the future it could be 1 million.

Hydra Pay is then another decentralized payment service based on the Hydra Head protocol. Scheduled for launch in 2023, it promises to revolutionize Web3 micropayments with even cheaper and faster processing than is currently possible.

Cardano is often criticized on social media. This is how the network comes to the term “ghost chainwas thrown at him because there was little activity on the network for a while. Here, too, Charles Hoskinson reacted violently. Regarding X, he emphasized that Cardano “will stay here”. In response, he shared a post from Stake with Pride detailing issues Cardano has yet to experience, such as hacks and inflation bugs — issues that other blockchains have faced.
