The number of addresses of Cardano, that actively send and receive transactions on the Cardano network daily increased by nearly 100% recently. According to a tweet shared by Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, the number of daily active addresses surged by 90%.
It is worth noting that Cardano’s daily active address has gained momentum since the beginning of the month. According to data from Messari, the network’s daily active address surged to a whopping 116,249 on November 14, 2022, after hovering around 70,000 for most of this month.
The massive surge of Cardano’s daily active addresses may surprise many, given that ADA, like most cryptocurrencies, has shredded a significant percentage of its value, like most crypto assets. On Year to-date Date (YTD) basis, ADA is down 76.2%. At press time, ADA is currently trading around $0.312, according to data from Coingecko
The surge in the number of daily active addresses may be because Investors might see ADA ‘s low price as the perfect opportunity to increase their position in the asset class in anticipation of a bull market.
Why CARDANO is Smart Cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency prices can fluctuate very often, therefore, they may not be appropriate for all investors. However, more and more people dare to enter the world of digital assets, in which Cardano and its Ada cryptocurrency are gaining more and more importance.
Although the world of cryptocurrencies is not controlled by any regulatory framework in the European Union, since it is a relatively new market that is no told enough to clearly establish the trend it follows, crypto assets have become one of the most attractive options for investors. Especially because it has options such as Cardano, a block chain developed by Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK) that has managed to attract much interest.
Cardano was born relatively recently, specifically in 2017, and since then it has not stopped rising in the world of cryptocurrencies. Perhaps this has been influenced by the fact that it appeared during the great bull run experienced by the crypto assets at the end of last year and the beginning of this year. Ada, the cryptocurrency of Cardano, has exploded in the classification of digital tokens and is already one of the top 10 by market capitalization.
This has led investors to become interested in the Cardano block chain, which has a two-layer structure. A first one called ‘Cardano Settlement Layer’ (CCSL), which carries out cryptocurrency transactions; and another layer, ‘Cardano Computation Layer (CCL), which is responsible for running the applications and allows developers to enter.
This is a novelty that has been much appreciated by investors, since other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin or Ripple depend on a chain of blocks or ‘blockchain’ that transfers funds and validates transactions. With them, therefore, several blockchain companies have been born, and some of them even allow developers to access their technology. That is the case of Cardano, a technology that has emerged from the hand of Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of Ethereum.
Cardano has become one of the most exciting cryptocurrencies in the world, which now eToro puts within reach of any of its users who can invest in it for both the short and long term.
