With the successful deployment on the mainnet, Cardano developers have updated the API to accommodate the first batch of requests, preparing Hydra for real-world use cases. The next version, 0.11.0, is reportedly underway.</p><div class="td-a-rec td-a-rec-id-content_inline tdi_2 td_block_template_5"> <style> /* custom css */ .tdi_2.td-a-rec{ text-align: center; }.tdi_2 .td-element-style{ z-index: -1; }.tdi_2.td-a-rec-img{ text-align: left; }.tdi_2.td-a-rec-img img{ margin: 0 auto 0 0; }@media (max-width: 767px) { .tdi_2.td-a-rec-img { text-align: center; } } </style><span class="td-adspot-title">Advertisement</span> <script async src="https://coinzillatag.com/lib/display.js">

 

Cardano’s Series of DeFi Upgrades Unveiled This Year

This year, Cardano has focused on releasing upgrades targeting DeFi. In January, the network announced the launch of its decentralized stablecoin, Djed. It was followed by Lace Wallet, a platform that allows Cardano users to stake native ADA tokens.

Lace is similar to MetaMask, a browser-built wallet where users can access and operate Cardano-based decentralized applications, sending and receiving ADA, non-fungible tokens, and other digital assets. With Lace, multiple assets can be transferred bundled as one transaction and charged a single fee, significantly saving costs.

Besides, Cardano’s Ethereum Virtual Machine layer, Milkomeda, announced last March that it was integrating a feature enabling every Cardano user to access EVM contracts from Cardano wallets. EVM stores Ethereum accounts and smart contracts for deploying dApps.

The announcement of Hydra heads had caused an increase in the price of ADA by 2% at press time to $0.3652. But more importantly, as Cardano blockchain expands its capability for smart contracts and DeFi, experts project the price to rise even higher.
