Why do I like Cardano?

It THE state-of-the-art distributed software development project. All the developers live around the world and worked in a work-from-home fashion well before COVID. All of the development is open source and everybody can track it. https://twitter.com/vixcontango/status/1358164521530064896
In addition, they do an exceptional job of keeping everybody up-to-date on project develop and provide enormous detail on development of key features and struggles and so forth.

When I was working at Goldman, I had a dream of putting together what Charles Hoskinson has.
My vision of the perfect software development process is exactly what Hoskinson is pulling off. He is about 10 years younger than me and I am incredibly impressed with everything that he is pulling off.
As investors, we are all in this to make money but I am somewhat of software process development geek which is an incredibly pedantic endeavor with many different styles and since I have jumped from one bank to another I am familiar with many different styles of software dev.
The overall perfection in the software development approach that Hoskinson utilizes is a key edge and advantage that he has over his competitors (primarily Vitalik) who maybe too young or have personality flaws that may not allow him to pull of Hoskinson's feat.
At the end of the day, this is all about who can pull it off and I feel priviliged to be able to observe it and understand what is happening in real time.
I have been watching this Hoskinson project since 2017. They have little idea what is about to get unleashed on the world and how dominant and difficult to it be to compete with and outdo his creation.

Nobody takes the time to do NASA level resiliency of their software projects
Most projects use agile software development which gets minimum proof-of-concepts up and running which then changed as things get bigger. But agile software dev often results in fundamental architectural problems which are only observed at scale when fixes can't be applied
You see that with Ethereum today. At scale its architecture blocks it from functioning and people go into ever more cludgy fixes like rollups and other tricks which really bypass the core goal of recording all transactions on one blockchain.
It is also incredible to watch the fusion between markets and software development and watch markets reward development teams for making the right choices and delivery superior execution.
Oh, and also super exciting to be able to participate as an regular investor in this action without being an accredited (rich) investor.

I have a lot of knowledge of software development which I haven't been able put to use with regular software startups cuz not rich enough.
