Cardano Creator Issues Crucial Explanation for All ADA Holders
Cardano (ADA) has successfully undergone its long-awaited Chang hard fork, marking a significant evolution in its network and introducing on-chain governance. This feature puts the power directly in the hands of ADA holders to influence the blockchain's future.
One of the most notable changes brought about by this upgrade is the introduction of Delegated Representatives, or DReps. These individuals act as key intermediaries, facilitating communication between ADA holders and the network's decision-making mechanisms.

Hoskinson explains
In a recent discussion, Cardano's founder, Charles Hoskinson, addressed user concerns and clarified the path forward. He said that users have three choices: casting a vote of no confidence, abstaining from participation or delegating their influence to a DRep.
Wallets like Lace are already programmed to accommodate those who prefer to keep their governance involvement at bay by selecting the "abstain" option automatically, allowing staking to continue unhindered, notes the blockchain developer.
Chang hard fork
Cardano is rolling out upgrades with this latest fork, making its foundation stronger as the ecosystem shifts toward decentralized governance. It is crucial for ADA holders to understand these changes.
