Perspectives on Cardano

Limited token utility

Cardano’s ADA token sees limited real-world usage beyond trading, raising concerns about its long-term relevance and functional adoption within the broader crypto ecosystem.

Strong transaction throughput

While Cardano's base mainnet offers solid performance, its Layer-2 scaling solution, Hydra, has the theoretical capability to process millions of transactions per second (TPS).

Engaged and loyal community

Cardano benefits from a passionate and active community of investors and developers who support the network’s growth, innovation, and long-term vision.

Environmentally friendly design

Cardano’s Proof-of-Stake mechanism is far more energy-efficient than traditional blockchains, making it attractive in a climate-conscious digital economy.

Slow development pace

Cardano’s academic, peer-reviewed development approach leads to slow progress, which could cause it to lag behind faster-moving blockchain competitors.

High market competition

Cardano faces intense competition from other smart contract platforms like Ethereum and Solana, requiring ongoing innovation to maintain relevance.

Lower adoption in DeFi

Compared to major DeFi platforms like Ethereum, Cardano still struggles with limited adoption, especially among decentralized finance applications.

Doubts about ADA’s utility

Outside of speculative trading, ADA’s utility remains narrow—raising long-term concerns about demand and use case expansion.
