ALT Cardano fact card: 20% of rewards fund the treasury. Each epoch, transaction fees plus a small slice of the ADA reserve fill the reward pot; 20% goes to the on-chain treasury before stake pools and delegators are paid. Treasury funds move only via a treasury withdrawal governance action. ENVY, envystakepool.com

ALT Cardano fact card: Faster nodes, same security. Mithril lets a new Cardano node start from a certified snapshot instead of checking every block from scratch, with the same security guarantees the chain itself provides. Signed by stake pool operators: a snapshot is certified once a set share of total stake signs it. ENVY, envystakepool.com.

ALT Cardano fact card: Off-chain, same rules. Hydra is a layer-2 protocol for Cardano. A Hydra head is a mini-ledger where a group transacts off-chain, with validation and scripts following the same rules as layer 1. When a head closes, its final state is fanned out to layer 1.
