# Ada

# Proof of Stake (PoS)
# Ledger
# Account type
Etherium uses account ledgers.
# UTXO (unspent transaction outputs) type
Cardono uses a UTXO ledger.
- A transaction spends UTXOs and creates more.
- A transaction only has to deal with the inputs that it spends.
# Scripts and Extended UTXO
- Output can be locked by a script (actually a hash of a script). This is called “pay to script”.
- A script is a program that decides if a transaction is authorized to spend its output. So, it’s a validation script.
- Validator Scripts
These scripts are passed three args:
datum: Some data/state attached to the locked output.redeemer: data attached to the input doing the spending. Input to the script from the spender.context: data about the transaction doing the spending. Makes assertions about the way the output is being sent.
