Introduction to the Cardano LATAM Community

Cardano is a third-generation blockchain platform that differentiates itself by its focus on security, sustainability and scalability, through an architecture designed from a scientific and research approach. Founded by Charles Hoskinson, one of the co-creators of Ethereum, Cardano seeks to overcome existing challenges in other blockchains by offering more efficient and sustainable solutions.

The platform is notable for its use of proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus, which is more energy efficient than the proof-of-work used by many other cryptocurrencies.

Cardano is not only a technology, but it has a community behind it that values transparency, inclusivity and collaboration. These values are reflected in the way the global and local community works together to advance the platform's development and worldwide adoption.

A bridge to innovation and collaboration in Latin America

The Cardano LATAM Community, with more than two years of trajectory, has proven to be an essential pillar for both the global Cardano community and the Latin American ecosystem. This diverse and dynamic group has demonstrated a wide range of capabilities ranging from event organization to community engagement to decentralized governance to local language translation. The community not only helps people create and present their projects, but also actively promotes them, showing the world the opportunities Latin America has to offer.

A clear purpose: Empower and inspire


The purpose of the Cardano LATAM Community is to act as a decentralized alliance that inspires and empowers individuals, organizations, initiatives and governments interested in Latin America. This is done in order to foster collaboration and expand the adoption of Cardano to facilitate its impact both in the region and to the rest of the world.

LATAM TownHall: A space for meeting and dialogue

The LATAM TownHall represents a central activity with recurring sessions where people can collaborate, present, share and discuss ideas and projects in our languages, Spanish and Portuguese. These meetings are bi-weekly and include Zoom events with diverse content and speakers. The moderators, well-known members of the Cardano community, ensure high quality conversations and create a learning environment with an innovative mindset.

Active participation in Cardano's Voltaire era

As the global Cardano community moves into the Voltaire era, announced in November 2022, the community has committed to being an integral part of this innovative venture: the creation of Decentralized Government on the blockchain. Having organized 13 workshops at the regional level with over 100 participants, discussing decentralized governance, the community has shown a high level of commitment and has generated innovative ideas and numerous contributions to the governance of cardano

A vision for the future

In summary, the Cardano Latin America Community is not only focused on expanding and enriching the Cardano ecosystem in the region, but also positioning itself as a leader in promoting decentralized governance and technological innovation. With a dedicated team and a clear focus on education and inclusion, this community is poised to remain a key player in the future of Cardano and blockchain technology in Latin America.

With this spirit of collaboration and vision for the future, the Cardano Latin America community continues to prove itself as a beacon of innovation and a vital bridge to connect Latin America to the global blockchain revolution.
