What is Cardano?
Cardano is designed to be the worlds most advanced cryptocurrency. It is a 3rd generation blockchain developing a smart contract platform to deliver more advanced features than any previous protocols including Bitcoin and Ethereum. With its groundbreaking proof-of-stake mechanism and peer-reviewed academic research, Cardano achieves scalability, interoperability and sustainability needed for real-world applications. Cardano is designed to be the choice of large-scale, mission-critical Decentralised Applications (DApps) that will underpin the economy of our future.
The Arthur J Goldman (AJG) are committed to the mission of Cardano, supports it’s initiatives and contributes to decentralization and security of the network.
What is Staking?
Staking is a process by which you are rewarded financially for delegating your Ada to the Cardano network. There are two options available to you as an Ada holder. You can run your own stake pool or you can invest with an already existing stake pool.
Operating and running a private stake pool comes at a huge price. For starters, you would need operational knowledge of how to run and maintain a Cardano node, as well as system operator skills, the experience of DevOps and server administration skills. You would also be required to invest a considerable amount of time, money and effort.
Investing with an already existing stake pool removes the need for any technical expertise, as all the hard work has already been done by somebody else allowing you to participate and gain the reward. By staking your Ada to Arthur J Goldman (AJG) company stake pool [KING1] you earn real rewards whilst having complete access to all of your funds 24/7, and these rewards are projected to be up to 5.6% in the first year.
You are always in complete control on your Ada when staking because you retain 100% ownership of your private keys and mnemonic phrases, so never give this information to anyone that asks.
Want to become a Stake Pool Operator?
It is important to remember the role of a stake pool operator: To ensure reliable, 24/7 operation of a network node.
As a stake pool operator, you have a responsibility to the Ada holders who delegate to you but also to the health of the network itself. This requires a stable and reliable network infrastructure and system operation and server administration skills along with experience in development and operations.
As a stake pool service provider Arthur J Goldman assists with all elements of the pool operations. This includes, setting up the nodes with multiple relays across global cloud services, providing guidance on regular updates and upgrades and most importantly managing and monitoring the security and performance of the stake pool. If you are interested in running a stake pool, we can help!

My goal is to educate and create technical awareness on how to run a successful stake pool. Cardano has a HUGE potential to change the whole blockchain industry from which a lot of people around the world would benefit. But to succeed, we need to build this on Solid Foundation – and one of the blocks in this foundation are pool operators and their mindset. I am willing to put my time in developing the right mindset and technical knowledge and awareness about the project so Cardano would become the gold standard in the blockchain industry. By joining Arthur J Goldman we are bringing the best of 2 worlds – business and technology, which is the cornerstone for successful stake pool so our delegators can have peace of mind” Lauris
