The price of Cardano (ADA) has reached an all-time high of $2.64 this morning, breaking the previous record of $2.54 set on Friday. ADA now trades for $2.58, up 4.5% from yesterday, according to data from crypto metrics site CoinGecko.
Cardano is the native token of the eponymous blockchain project helmed by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson. The altcoin overtook stablecoin Tether on August 13 as the third-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $82 billion. ADA’s up 17% over the past week and 116% in the past month.
Cardano’s price surge began in earnest on August 10, when Hoskinson “pre-announced” the date when smart contracts would be integrated on the platform as part of the Alonzo network upgrade later this year. Three days after that “announcement of an announcement,” the development company behind Cardano, Input Output, disclosed the date as September 12.
Last month, Cardano received a big boost when investment firm Grayscale’s Digital Large Cap Fund included the asset in its portfolio. As of this writing, 4.26% of the fund is invested in ADA. 67.47% of the fund is held in Bitcoin and 25.39% in Ethereum.
Since its inception in 2015, Ethereum has been the dominant platform for crypto companies to build projects on. Its combination of smart contracts and ERC-20 tokens allows anyone to create their own tokens on top of Ethereum’s infrastructure - that led to the birth of DeFi. As a result, a litany of other protocols has been racing to create their own versions of Ethereum’s ecosystem. Some of the quickest has been Solana, Tezos and Near, who have been aggressively courting developers to build on...
Other top-10 cryptocurrencies didn’t join Cardano’s celebration today. It’s all a faint hint of red for the market, with Bitcoin and Ethereum down 0.7% and 1.5%, respectively.
Bitcoin inched closer to $50,000 yesterday as it reached as high as $49,700. But that price mark proved to be too hard to topple; the price has since dropped back to $48,800.
Overall, however, the cryptocurrency market has made a strong recovery from the spring crash and summer slump. On Friday, the total market cap of cryptocurrencies once again passed $2 trillion. While the rising figures bring back jubilant memories of the spring, Cardano’s having the best time of its life.

XRP whale selling has been picking up, amounting to roughly $470 million in the past 10 days, according to an analyst earlier this week. But there’s no reason to panic because trading volume has been sustained, another analyst noted. “Historically, such heavy selling can pressure short-term prices, but it’s also worth noting that volumes have not collapsed,” Unity Wallet CEO James Toledo told Decrypt. “Overall sentiment appears to be very bullish, which is why I am surprised at the large offload...
MetaMask officially unveiled its native stablecoin Wednesday, the first of its kind launched by a self-custodial wallet. The token, dubbed mUSD, will be fully integrated with the MetaMask DeFi ecosystem, and will allow users of the dominant Ethereum wallet to easily on- and off-ramp self-custodied cryptocurrencies into dollar-pegged tokens. The stablecoin will be issued by Bridge, a Stripe company, and one-to-one backed by dollar equivalent assets in compliance with the recently passed GENIUS...
Bitcoin and Ethereum dipped briefly before regaining momentum in the hour after the Federal Reserve released minutes from its July monetary policy meeting, showing that the two dissenting governors on the Federal Open Markets Committee (FOMC), couldn't convince others to join them. "A couple of members preferred to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at this meeting," the minutes revealed. "These members judged that, excluding tariff effects, inflation was runnin...
