The Cardano network remains one of the most stable blockchains in the crypto space. Founded in 2017, the network remains the largest proof of stake network in the industry. It holds the title for the proof of stake network with the highest amount of coins staked, only recently conceding to Solana to become the smart contracts platform with the second-largest amount of coins staked.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, Cardano remains a force to be reckoned with and its latest achievement has shown that. Network activity has picked up on the network since the launch of smart contracts capability. Now, a little over two months after, the network has marked its 20 millionth transaction<\/a> after only four years in operation.<\/p>\n Related Reading |\u00a0Cardano Active Addresses Shoots To New Highs Amid Downtrend<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The project has done some impressive things in its four years of operation, one of which is barely experiencing any downtime. Most projects in the market have experienced downtime at some point. Most notably the Solana network blackout<\/a> that saw the network go dark for about 24 hours.

Users can mint NFTs on Cardano, which has contributed greatly to this increased network activity. However, given that Ethereum has DEXes and NFT capability, this is an incredible feat for Cardano.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With this, Cardano has proven that it will be one of the leading DeFi platforms once decentralized finance takes off properly on the platform. ADALend<\/a>, credited as the first lending protocol on the platform, is building its decentralized lending protocol on Cardano, which has been positively received by the community so far.<\/p>\n Cardano\u2019s native token ADA has not had the best of weeks in the market recently. The digital asset had been the victim of major FUD that has seen its price sink to three-month lows. This has mostly been the result of crypto exchange eToro announcing that it would be limiting Cardano (ADA) capabilities for U.S. users<\/a> on the platform starting in December.<\/p>\nCardano Remains At The Top<\/h2>\n
