Cardano (ADA) Price Analysis – March 31, 2021

The Cardano blockchain expanded its technical potential by upgrading Mary on March 1. Cardano (ADA) will achieve another milestone in its development through the upcoming Alonzo Hard Fork-creating an entire ecosystem of DeFi projects centred on Cardano.

Cardano is actively developing Alonzo testnet currently. This upgrade aims to enable developers to create and deploy complex smart contracts on the Cardano blockchain. If all goes according to plans, the testing phase should begin by mid-May at the latest. These functions will be fully available on the mainnet in August. 

With the upcoming launch of Alonzo testnet for sometime next month, ADA’s price is likely to exceed its previous all-time high (ATH) of $1.485 and soar higher.

Ethereum is currently ranked as the first blockchain leveraged by the DeFi sector. Due to the expensive transaction fees, people are constantly turning to the cheaper Binance Smart Chain (BSC). But the issue of decentralization has always been the focus of attention.

Based on its fully centralized advantages and the upcoming smart contract test, Cardano is preparing to continuously improve itself to become a stronger competitor of Ethereum. By obtaining the DeFi-specific market boom, the price of ADA will benefit from DeFi market activity. It is a sign of growth in Cardano’s price rally.

When looking at the number of new ADA wallets, the cumulative number has declined. But the percentage of the total number of ADA wallets staking has increased. This shows that the price rise continues to expand. This is just the beginning and will usher in a new round of rising.
