How does Cardano work?

Cardano aims to enable cross chain transfers through side chains, which conduct transactions between two parties off chain. It is also exploring ways for institutions and individuals to selectively divulge metadata related to transactions and identities to enable use of cryptocurrencies for trading and daily transactions.

Is Cardano open-source?

Now Cardano has to contend with many projects that also have multiple chains such as Binance Coin’s Smart Chain (which works separately from their primary chain) and Polkadot. Unfortunately, that’s just one of the downsides of being open-source, all open-source cryptos face this risk. Hopefully, Cardano will surprise us with more unique ideas.
