About ADAOZ

A small Australian pool built for reliability — not scale at any cost.

Minting blocks since 20 February 2021. Well-maintained, security-first, and focused on giving back to Cardano rather than chasing the biggest number.

Powered by renewables

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

Hardened security

Cold keys offline, hardware-backed signing, restricted SSH access, and continuous monitoring on every relay. The block-producer node is never directly exposed.

Redundant relays

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

Cardano Ambassador · Midnight Ambassador · 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 publishing on Learn Cardano, and building Cardano and Midnight apps via Mesh With Us. Delegating to ADAOZ funds the time it takes to review governance, interview builders, and turn that into content anyone can learn from.

Cardano × Midnight

Earn ADA today. NIGHT tokens on the way.

Midnight is Cardano's privacy-focused sidechain. When NIGHT token allocations open up to Cardano stakers, ADAOZ delegators will earn $NIGHT rewards on top of their ADA, just for staying delegated.

Peter is one of the Midnight Ambassadors covering the launch, so ADAOZ delegators get a front-row view of what's happening on the new chain — and the rewards that come with being early.

Cardano and Midnight pairing — yin-yang of the two networks.

Delegate to ADAOZ

Connect your Cardano wallet and delegate on-chain in two clicks. First-time delegators pay a one-off 2 ₳ stake-key registration deposit — refunded if you ever de-register.

Works with Lace, Eternl, Nami, Typhon, NuFi, Begin, Yoroi — any CIP-30 wallet. We never see your keys.

Prefer to delegate from inside your wallet?
  1. Open your Cardano wallet (Lace or Eternl recommended).
  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.
