Cardano experiencing falling momentum as Dogecoin falls below Polkadot

• The ADA is currently estimated at $17.1 billion, as per the data of CoinMarketCap.
• The hard fork is predicted to amend its Plutus Script.

The Cardano (ADA) rally has calmed, with the token dropping by nearly 1.4% in the past one day.

It is presently estimated at $17.1 billion, as per the data of CoinMarketCap. It has recently crossed XRP by market capitalization again. It was also surpassing the wider crypto market once again, projecting by almost 7% on Sunday. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other vital altcoins are often flat. 

Polkadot (DOT) is an exception after projecting over 4% in the last 24 hours. It has now crossed Dogecoin (DOGE) by market cap, which permitted it to give back to the list of the top 10 most expensive cryptocurrencies.

Vasil is anticipated to bring higher reliability

ADA had been gathering momentum after Input Output, the firm behind the famous proof-of-stake blockchain, stated that the much-awaited Vasil update is all set to be launched on September 22. The hard fork is predicted to amend the Plutus script, which is utilized for Cardano’s smart contracts. Vasil is anticipated to bring higher reliability and lesser fees.

The update was initially assumed to happen over two months earlier. But, the cost of the token continued under pressure because of various delays. It is worth mentioning that the ADA token was below an immense 84% even now from its all-time high in September 2021. At that time, the token rallied due to the Alonzo update, which eventually brought smart contracts to one of the top “Ethereum killers.” it is still to be looked after if ADA will recover its momentum by the end of September 2022.
