ouroboros-network VS daedalus

I'm one of the consensus team members at IOG. We maintain and extend the consensus layer of the Cardano blockchain, which provides a rich set of challenges related to distributed computing, type level programming, networking, concurrency, among others.

According to a document on pipelining I saw on Github they might be building a whole new Ouroboros protocol called Leios (https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-network/pull/3579/files) so there might be something we don't know yet

• cardano-node - top level integration code • ouroboros-network & ouroboros-consensus - network code & consensus (which integrates network, consensus and the ledger) • ledger - ledger(s) specifications and implementation • plutus - the smart contract language and related infrastructure

Check out cardano-ping.

This is non trivial, you can check an example how we generate valid subset of Haskell to check that our implementation of orElse is corect: https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-network/blob/master/io-sim/test/Test/STM.hs

So from what I gather the transaction fee is a fixed protocol parameter. I like how fees are distributed amongst the epoch, If I had to design a blockchain system I'd also have chosen this approach TBH. It addresses some of the issues and misaligned incentives if you only have to rely on fees for block rewards. However if the demand for transactions constantly outweighs the available space you get into other issues. I tried to find details on how Cardano handles transactions and manages its mempool. I believe somewhere here is the code? (https://github.com/input-output-hk/ouroboros-network/blob/master/ouroboros-consensus/src/Ouroboros/Consensus/Mempool/Impl.hs)

You can download daedalus from https://daedaluswallet.io/

First, you'll need to download and install the Daedalus wallet on your computer from https://daedaluswallet.io/

I don't think Daedalus has the option anymore (there's an open request to reimplement it) so you'll need to use a different wallet that supports it.

Use https://daedaluswallet.io/ for ADA. Add your stake to a pool that's not in the high percentage share for a fairer reward

Apple M1 has been working for some time, but those binaries are not yet signed apparently. Check the hash after download: https://github.com/input-output-hk/daedalus/issues/2677

Daedalus (Desktop) - Resource heavy, no DaPP capabilities, safer than web wallets

Daedalus is a full node wallet, which means that it takes a while to sync up to the blockchain. It will probably ask you to run an upgrade, which is fine. Be aware that there are scammers that try to get you to download fake wallets, so make sure the source is from: https://daedaluswallet.io/. Once the application runs, you can restore your wallet, create a new wallet with your own keys, and then transfer your ADA to your own secure wallet. Otherwise, you just have to trust me - but crypto is about trusting nobody! Take control over your own money.
