Could you elaborate on ADA tokens and their operational mechanics, please? As a
cryptocurrency enthusiast, I'm curious about the fundamentals behind this digital asset. I've heard it's a token within the Cardano blockchain, but I'd like to know more about its purpose, use cases, and how the system facilitates transactions involving ADA. Additionally, I'm interested in understanding the underlying technology that enables the token's functionality and how it contributes to the Cardano ecosystem.
