The Daedalus wallet downloads a full copy of the entire transaction history of the Cardano blockchain. Wallet users face the risk of losing access to funds if the wallet's seed phrase is lost or stolen. Development phases of Cardano, or "eras", are named after notable figures in poetry and computer science: Byron, Shelley, Goguen, Basho, and ...

A blockchain is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography. [58] [60] Each block typically contains a hash pointer as a link to a previous block, [60] a timestamp, and transaction data. [61] By design, blockchains are inherently resistant to modification of the data.
A blockchain has been described as a value-exchange protocol. [23] A blockchain can maintain title rights because, when properly set up to detail the exchange agreement, it provides a record that compels offer and acceptance. [citation needed] Logically, a blockchain can be seen as consisting of several layers: [24] infrastructure (hardware)

The EUTXO model is used in cryptocurrencies like the Cardano blockchain to facilitate more complex financial transactions and automated scripts. It serves as the basis for Plutus, Cardano's smart contract development platform, and allows it to handle complex, stateful contracts while maintaining a high level of security and predictability.
