Cardano is celebrating one milestone after the other



Cardano investors have had to be strong over the past few months. Despite important upgrades, the price of the Altcoin has fallen sharply in a short time. However, this does not seem to deter many users, because the crypto currency is registering more and more active addresses.

The course of the crypto currency Cardano has lost a lot of its value in the last few months. While the altcoin still marked an all-time high at $ 3.1 via CoinMarketCap at the beginning of September, the price is now only bobbing at $ 1.25. The cyber motto was driven at its heyday by the prospect of the eagerly awaited Alonzo upgrade, which should open the cryptocurrency for smart contracts. After the implementation of the upgrade, however, the hoped-for push for the cryptocurrency did not materialize. It turned out that although many smart contracts were implemented at Cardano, they were not yet available live and the number of decentralized applications, also known as dApps, is still manageable.

Improvements take time

However, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has repeatedly emphasized in the past that the constant improvements that he and his team are striving for in the cyber motto need time to develop, and only recently asked his Twitter followers in a live question and answer session about patience. The fundamental Cardanos peer review system also plays a role here: Before implementation, each update is checked for correctness by various peers until all objections and concerns have been resolved. Of course, this takes time, but it should ensure the functionality of every upgrade.

More and more active addresses recorded

However, as data from the Messari database shows, it actually seems that more and more people are placing their trust in the future of the potential Ethereum killer Cardano. Because despite a significant decline in the share price, the number of active addresses in the Cardano network increased significantly in November. The number shot up to 485,693 wallets on November 22nd, compared to 161,330 addresses at the beginning of the month.

Over a million staking addresses

In addition, the cryptocurrency recently celebrated another milestone. A few weeks ago, for example, the network processed 20 million transactions for the first time without causing network problems. In addition, Cardano has more and more staking addresses, so there are more and more users who are interested in participating in the crypto currency in the long term. As PoolTool data shows, there are now more than a million staking addresses - a huge success that Hoskinson highlighted on Twitter:

Decentralized crypto exchange SundaeSwap starts test network

In addition to these advances, there has recently been another innovation that could give the cryptocurrency new impetus. A few days ago, the decentralized crypto exchange SundaeSwap implemented on the Cardano network opened a test network for interested crypto users who can try out the new platform and provide constructive feedback to help rid the exchange of any bugs before its official launch. With SundaeSwap, Cardano is taking another important step towards DeFi and is increasingly establishing itself as an alternative to the second largest crypto currency Ethereum, which is currently used primarily for use in the field of decentralized finance.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
