Cardano ADA

Cardano is one of the top crypto assets in the market today. With its visionary team, it has become robust in creating projects that not only benefit its blockchain but the world.

Its CEO, Charles Hoskinson, also the founder of IOHK, has also been focused on making sure Cardano’s utility spreads across countries. It is important to know that IOHK, the team that has developed Cardano’s blockchain was created in 2015.

IOHK is a reputable digital company that is poised in making use of peer-to-peer innovations to provide financial services to more than 3 billion people that don’t really have access to them.

As part of the plans by the Cardano’s team to provide great innovations for providing financial services to people worldwide, and empower countries across the world, Cardano’s research manager, Mario Larangiera, met with Mario Borges, the President of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) in the Brazilian Embassy in Tokyo, in Japan, to talk about the future of Brazil.

Mario Larangiera tweeted on his Twitter page:

Meeting with Mario Borges the president of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNDq) in the Brazilian Embassy in Tokyo. In Japan but thinking about the future of Brazil.”

Moving forward, it is important to note that Cardano is poised in making great systems for financial services of the world, and it is taking a wise approach with its collaborations. About two months ago, Cardano visited Africa and partnered with the government of Ethiopia to create a training center and employ talents in the country to be part of Cardano.

Cardano’s potential partnership with Brazil has lots of reasons: Cardano is aiming to offer training and rewards to local developers in Brazil and also foster scientific and technological development in the country. Countries like Brazil have the potential to have high demands for blockchain applications in the future, and hence, Cardano’s partnership with Brazil will also help to foster the development of blockchain in the country.

Cardano (ADA) Shelley Project Update

In a recent video released on Tuesday, Liz Bancroft Turner, a member of Cardano’s Science and Engineering team, gave more insights on Cardano’s recent project: Shelley. She also talked on the review plan used to track the Shelley Project’s success. Liz stated that this Cardano project is highly decentralized and self-governing. Turner states,

For incentives, this is about encouraging stakeholders to follow the protocol and assure that the system runs smoothly for delegation this is about allowing users to hand over their right to sign blocks to a third party and for networking it’s about enabling the infrastructure to support decentralization”

Also in the clip, she stated that there are 3 aspects (tests) of the project which are, test management, test strategy, and test execution strategy.

Turner further emphasized that the test strategy would come on how several tests will be carried on the project; it will include when these testing will begin and end, too. On the other hand, the test execution strategy would give more details concerning the tests and how they will be accomplished.

Solana Price Surges Beyond $100, Dethroning Ripple and BNB To Secure Fourth Place

Published

on

By

Solana price performance in recent times has been remarkable, surpassing Ripple and Binance Coin to become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The SOL price breached the critical level of $100 for the first time since April 2022 over the weekend to imbue optimism among investors. However, the altcoin has corrected by 7%, suggesting that the market is overheated. At the time of writing, the ‘Ethereum killer’ was trading slightly lower at $111.60.

SOL Outlook

Solana price has made a significant recovery over the past few weeks, climbing above the psychological level of $100. The altcoin has been one of the best-performing assets this year, extending its year-to-date gains to more than 1,025%, with more gains recorded in the past month alone. However, even with such growth, analysts have noted that Solana has a bleak chance of topping its ATH of $260.

The reason behind this is the increase in supply relative to its value. In November 2021, when the Solana price hit its all-time high of $260, its total market capitalization was around $78 billion. Despite the value of the crypto asset being less than half of what it was at the top, its market cap is currently hovering near $50 billion.

This has been brought about by the increase in the Solana supply by more than 100 million SOL over the past two years. According to some analysts, for the altcoin to retest $260, its…

Solana Price Skyrockets to 20-Month Peak Amidst Memecoin Frenzy

Published

on

By

Solana price has noted significant gains over the past few weeks, climbing to its highest level since April 2022. The ‘Ethereum Killer’ almost topped the crucial level of $100 on Friday, before pulling back slightly. The asset’s recent surge has catapulted Solana’s total market cap to $39.6 billion, ranking 5th after and above BNB and XRP, respectively. Solana has jumped by more than 22% in the past week and more than 80% in the month to date. At the time of writing, SOL price was trading 0.90% lower at $93.10.

Catalysts Behind SOL’s Rally

Solana price has been on a strong bull run over the past few days, rocketing to its highest level in 20 months as the network benefits from the substantial activity and strong interest in memecoins. The SOL token, the native digital asset of the high-performance blockchain platform Solana, has shown some serious strength over the past few weeks, outperforming all the altcoins in the market.

The recent surge in the Solana price has been linked to heightened on-chain activities on the Solana blockchain. Notably, the ongoing hype for the blockchain’s speedy transactions, cheap fees, and a lottery of meme coin issuances has buoyed SOL’s on-chain activity. Metrics have revealed that Solana has been the strongest draw among on-chain traders, with trading volumes and network fees outperforming Ethereum- the largest altcoin by market cap.

Solana Price Breaches $60 Amid a Symphony of Bullish Indicators

Published

By

Solana price has jumped more than 8% over the past week, breaching the important level of $60. At the time of writing, Solana was trading 3% higher at $61.07. The asset’s total market cap has climbed to $25.9 billion over the past week, ranking it the 6th largest cryptocurrency after XRP. The total volume of SOL traded over the last day has declined by 8%.

SOL’s Bullish Cues

Solana’s price has been among the best-performing cryptocurrencies this year amid continuous growth. The “Ethereum killer” has consistently impressed investors throughout the year on the back of a resurgence in bullishness, which saw SOL’s price climb more than 513% in the year to date. Institutional investors have also shared the bullish sentiment, making Solana their most preferred altcoin.

In the week ending November 24, Solana recorded inflows worth nearly $3.5 million, significantly more than the other altcoins’ inflows combined. The asset’s monthly inflows were higher at $40.2 million, lower than Ethereum’s $99.6 million inflows in the same period. Other altcoins, including Litecoin and Ethereum, noted significant outflows, making Solana nearly half of the home for DeFi. This implies that when it comes to institutions, Solana is currently the best-performing altcoin with the potential of a long-term rally much higher than other digital assets.

Notably, the Solana DeFi ecosystem accomplished a significant milestone earlier this week. Its Total Value Locked (TVL) hit a new yearly peak of over $655 million,…
