The recent Hydra update has significantly increased the Total Value Locked (TVL) of Cardano's Decentralized Finance (DeFi) sector, leading to an upward trend.
Cardano DeFi TVL Prints Visible Rebound
According to DeFiLlama data, the Total Value Locked (TVL) in Cardano's decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem has increased to $243.17 million. In just two weeks, the network has experienced a growth of almost 20% compared to its previous value of $242.13 million on July 6.
The market capitalization of stablecoins on the Cardano ecosystem is currently $15.88 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of $267.3 million. This indicates Cardano's robust and dynamic market presence. Furthermore, it signifies the network's increasing impact within the DeFi ecosystem.
The Total Value Locked (TVL) is a crucial measure representing the whole value of assets held in the Cardano ecosystem. It serves as an indicator of the level of activity and investment within the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector of Cardano.
Subsequently, this increase occurred following the announcement made on X by the prominent pool operator Stake With Pride that Cardano Hydra will activate the "God mode" on the network. This action will particularly advantage private transient Layer-2 networks that employ the Cardano native token ADA.
The Hydra potential suggests that this particular group of L2 protocols will have a high Transaction Per Second (TPS) rate with minimal associated costs. The Hydra development was characterized as "ultra," the update was confirmed with a repost by founder Charles Hoskinson.
This declaration regarding Hydra discredits any speculations suggesting that the project has been abandoned. During the first quarter, several videos surfaced on the Internet asserting that Cardano had ceased its development efforts on Hydra.
Charles Hoskinson used X to clarify that this statement was false. He explicitly stated that the concerns were FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) because Cardano had reached a stage where its workforce was highly productive and enthusiastic.
Additional advancements in Cardano
In addition to the Defi Total Value Locked (TVL), another notable aspect of the Cardano ecosystem is the Project Catalyst Fund 12 campaign. The Cardano Foundation announced that Project Catalyst Fund 12 will imminently conclude at the start of this week. Consequently, it provided a public indication of its inaugural involvement in Project Catalyst voting.
Project Catalyst highlights Cardano's dedication to promoting innovation and progress driven by the community.
Despite the various changes and enhancements, the price of ADA is currently trading at $0.4375, reflecting a 0.2% fall in the past 24 hours. A positive forecast suggests the ADA price will see a significant upward trend, potentially reaching a target of $0.6 and finally surpassing the $1 mark.
