Cardano founder & CEO of Cardano engineering team Input Output Hong Kong Global (IOG) Charles Hoskinson also shared his happiness on this Cardano milestone.
Cardano growth report
The latest report on the Cardano network noted that 124 crypto projects have been launched in the Cardano smart contract ecosystem and 1225 projects building on Cardano.
It is worth noting that Cardano engineers were working on Hydra, Cardano layer-2 scaling network, to push the Cardano network’s scalability to nearly 1 million TPS. Over the last 6 months, Cardano’s team never talked about Hydra or other layer-2 scaling networks. It seems that they paused or stopped their work on such techs.
In March 2023, in an interview, Cardano’s founder said that the Cardano blockchain achieved high-level adoption in the NFTs sector as a big winner. He also said that in the next 10 years, the countries’ governments will use Cardano & other flagship blockchain networks at a practical level in the financial system.
Ada price action
Ada is a native coin on the Cardano Blockchain network and the current trade price of ADA coin is $0.44 & this trade price is 13.67 high over the last 7 days’ trade price.
