Cardano's protracted growth sees position as Bitcoin alternative

Cardano's ADA token has been rising in price over the past seven days thanks to several interesting innovations in its blockchain. The rise took place even though Bitcoin and Ethereum took a sideways position.

CoinGecko reports that ADA has risen by 30% over the past seven days, and this is against the backdrop of minimal growth in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP, whose combined increase was no more than 5%.

The data confidently shows that the volume of Cardano transactions per day is about $5.30 billion. This is comparable to Ethereum transaction volumes of $5.59 billion.

However, at the same time, Cardano's gas fees (payments made by users to offset the computing energy needed to process transactions) were around $75,400, compared to the latter's $44 million over the same period.

"One could quite easily argue that the NFT market has found a gas-light way to transact, and that is the Cardano blockchain," said Hayden Hughes, CEO of crypto trading social network Alpha Impact.

"Many have argued that it's only a matter of time before gas fees and congestion clog up the Cardano blockchain, leading to high gas fees, but despite the $5.31 billion in daily activity we have not yet seen this."

Difficult path to the top

Cardano has been quite volatile in recent months.

For a time, the token ranked third among all cryptocurrencies in the world, behind only Bitcoin and Ethereum, and its combined market value was approaching $100 billion amid optimism about the addition of smart contract capabilities.

But the hype from the news subsided and the token corrected 50% below its September record.

Despite this deep correction, the token managed to win a lot of loyal fans, as well as enemies. The latter includes Mike Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Digital, who tweeted six months ago that "I spoke to twenty of the smartest people I know in the space, and zero of them saw Cardano having traction with devs."

Probably, the attitude towards this digital asset is largely determined by the support of other altcoins and bitcoin. This is confirmed by the words of Antoni Trenchev: "ADA's critics say there's too much talk and not enough action. Cardano's position as Ethereum's nemesis was somewhat usurped in 2021 by the rise of rival blockchains Solana and Avalanche... clearly, there's a passionate Cardano community eager for it to succeed, otherwise it wouldn't be a top-five crypto."

The Cardano project is really actively developing at the moment. Its blockchain system includes decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and its own metaverse that unites its adherents into a single community. Such progress in scaling benefits the token by improving its prospects, according to Asian markets expert Vijay Ayyar.

Trenchev also spoke more than once about the interesting future of the token thanks to such a developed infrastructure.

"The planned launch of the first DEX – decentralized exchange – on the Cardano blockchain comes after it's already established a presence in NFTs," Trenchev shares. "To top it off, Cardano is stealing some attention away from Decentraland and The Sandbox with news of the first Cardano metaverse," he says, referring to his victory in the information field, which is the main advantage of the token's competitiveness. It looks like we will see growth in the near future.

The success of Cardano confirms that one of the basic rules of organizing an all-in-one service structure continues to apply even in times of globalization. The token has great potential and is a strong competitor to "fiat" altcoins.

萊特幣加密貨幣的即日價格走勢技術分析,2025年4月17日星期四。

在 Litecoin 加密貨幣 4 小時圖上成功突破向上擴張楔形形態後,隨之出現了 Litecoin 價格走勢與隨機指標之間的背離現象,以及出現了Bearish 123 型態並伴隨 Bearish Ross Hook (RH) 的出現,那麼在不久的將來,Litecoin 可能會再次走弱,以跌破 73.29 的水平。如果其走弱的勢頭和波動性足夠強,則 Litecoin 會再次走弱至 72.35 作為其主要目標和 70.65 作為其次要目標,但如果在其通往先前描述的目標水平的途中,Litecoin 突然出現增強,尤其是突破並收於 78.17 以上,那麼之前描述的所有走弱情景將變得無效並自動取消。

4月14日加密貨幣市場交易建議

在過去的週末,比特幣和以太坊展現了不錯的韌性,維持了進一步回升的機會。儘管從技術角度來看,這些機會似乎相當渺茫,但在橫向通道中交易無疑比啟動新一輪拋售更具吸引力。

比特幣——技術分析概覽

在上個交易週中,市場顯示出多頭有機會重新取得控制權的潛力。此潛力能否實現,現取決於多頭能否離開之前的整固區域(88743),並突破Ichimoku週線交叉(86947 – 87629 和 92885)以及日線雲層(91489)的阻力位。

特朗普邁向加密貨幣市場的又一步

比特幣和以太坊在昨晚急劇下跌,但隨後設法收復失地。就目前而言,空頭力量仍然強於多頭,但這可能只是暫時的,直到Donald Trump最終決定貿易關稅和稅務政策,以及股市動蕩局勢穩定下來。

比特幣和以太坊在週四美國市場尾盤時價值下跌,但在今日亞洲交易時段恢復。 在特朗普將對中國的關稅提升至145%的消息傳出後,加劇了市場的混亂和投資者的焦慮,加密市場和美國股市一同下跌已成為常態。

2025年4月11日星期五,Uniswap加密貨幣的日內價格走勢技術分析。

從Uniswap加密貨幣的4小時圖表中可以看到,Uniswap的價格走勢和隨機振盪指標之間似乎存在背離。因此,基於此情況,Uniswap在不久的將來有可能上升至5.755的水平,如果其增強的波動性和動能支持,那麼Uniswap將繼續上升至6.219的水平,但如果在前往目標水平的過程中突然出現明顯的回調,尤其是當回調突破並收於4.546的水平以下,那麼之前描述的所有增強情境將無效並自動取消。

受特朗普突然改變主意的消息影響,比特幣和以太坊雙雙飆升,上漲了6%到10%之間。 在美國宣佈90天暫停互惠關稅的消息之後,比特幣的投資者表現出強烈的FOMO情緒。
