About ADAOZ

ADAOZ has been minting blocks since 20 February 2021. A small, well-maintained Australian stake pool focused on reliability, security, and contributing back to Cardano rather than chasing scale at any cost.

🌱

Powered by renewables

Infrastructure runs on renewable-energy data centres. Cardano's proof-of-stake already cuts the footprint to a fraction of proof-of-work; we go further by choosing greener hosts.

🔐

Hardened security

Cold keys stored offline, hardware-backed signing, restricted SSH access, continuous monitoring on every relay. The block-producer node is not directly internet-exposed.

🛰️

Redundant relays

Multiple geographically distributed relays with health monitoring. If one drops, your delegation keeps minting on the rest.

Cardano Ambassador · DRep · Founder, Mesh With Us · Host, Learn Cardano

I started ADAOZ in February 2021 because I wanted Australians to have a local pool to delegate to, and because I wanted to learn how Cardano really worked from the inside out. Five years later I'm still running the pool, still researching every governance vote as a DRep, still publishing on Learn Cardano, and building Cardano apps via Mesh With Us.

Delegating to ADAOZ funds the time it takes to review every CIP, every governance action, every new tool — and turn that into content other people can learn from.

Where ADAOZ rewards and Peter's time actually go.

Delegate to ADAOZ

An in-page wallet-connect delegation flow is on the way. In the meantime, delegating manually takes about thirty seconds.

  1. Open your Cardano wallet (Lace or Eternl recommended; Nami or Yoroi also work).
  2. Go to the staking / delegation panel.
  3. Search the ticker ADAOZ and select the pool.
  4. Confirm. First-time delegators pay a one-off 2 ₳ stake-key registration; you get it back if you ever de-register.
