The announcement was made by Cardano’s development arm Input-Output Global (IOG) which also announced partnerships with Dish, a Fortune 350 company that will utilize the Cardano blockchain to provide digital identities (DIDs) on phones to eight million of its customers.
One of the highlight announcements of the first day was however the partnership with leading blockchain oracle network Chainlink. With the Chainlink integration, Cardano wants to help developers to build smart contracts for secure DeFi applications. Chainlink, which has a strong reputation in the industry, will act as Cardano’s bridge to real-world data to implement the automated execution of smart contracts.
These announcements were also accompanied by an update from Cardano’s investment arm, EMURGO, that it would be making a $100 million investment targeted at accelerating DeFi and NFT solutions as well as blockchain education on the Cardano ecosystem. EMURGO’s CEO, Ken Kadoma, added that the company’s doors were open to community members interested in receiving investment funds, along with information and management support.

Following all the announcements that have the potential to make Cardano pioneer use cases across climate restoration, decentralized finance, and NFTs, there is no doubt that the world’s greenest blockchain fully plans to muscle deeper into the territory of its foremost rival, Ethereum.
