I have been really intrigued by the Cardano cryptocurrency because the technological foundations for it seem really strong. Another reason why I like Cardano is because of Charles Hoskinson (the founder) who seems really honest and also seems to understand what is he really doing.
However the most important reason I am gung-ho about Cardano is because it’s built using Haskell and seems to have a RUST sdk as well. I have started learning haskell in hopes that I will be able to implement Cardano smart contract applications.
