#Cardano ($ADA ) #Roadmap for 2025 Revealed: What's Inside?
Cardano builder Input Output’s vision for Cardano’s roadmap focuses on three defined pillars, which are scalability, usability and utility, and interoperability and extensibility.
Scalability
Cardano aspires to serve billions of users by 2030 by lowering the barriers to entry while maintaining decentralization, affordability and security. The integration of advanced scaling solutions will enable high transaction volumes, with a multi-faceted approach to achieving scalability goals through technologies such as layer-2 Hydra state channels, layer-2 rollups (zero-knowledge [ZK] and optimistic), Ouroboros Leios and Peras, Mithril certificates, data API services, local node services, Daedalus, Catalyst voting platform and Core node improvements.
Usability and utility
To achieve wider acceptance, blockchain technology must become more accessible for everyday use. Achieving this vision according to input-output requires native support for key functionalities: identity, privacy and regulatory compliance.
Interoperability and extensibility
Extending Cardano's capabilities will unlock its potential for interoperability. The interoperability and extensibility pillar in the Cardano roadmap requires the following initiatives: Cardano adopting layered node architecture with microservices, partner chains utilizing multi-resource consensus with Minotaur, partner chains expanding extensibility through service layers, partner chains boosting cross-chain transactions via Hybrid dApps and Cardano as the smart contract layer for Bitcoin.
