Cardano Marks Nine Years with 123 Million Transactions and Automated Payments

Cardano Foundation marked its ninth year in operation with significant network milestones. The blockchain has processed over 123 million transactions and recorded nearly 14 million blocks since its launch.

The foundation highlighted the growth of Cardano's proof-of-stake network, which is supported by over 2,890 stake pools. Governance participation has also been robust, with thousands of votes cast across various decisions.

One notable development is Cardano's integration with the x402 SDK, enabling automated payments for applications and AI agents. This integration removes manual steps from transactions and allows for seamless payment processing between software entities.
