Because of Binance’s readiness the liquidity readiness was increased by 73%. However, ADA saw a price decline of 0.23% and was trading at $0.4466 but the project saw an increase in volume. This could be an indicator that Cardano may see a bull run amidst a flat market.
The Cardano Vasil upgrade happened just days after Ethereum Merge with Beacon chain. Ethereum is the second largest crypto asset by market cap of $164,679,590,444 and Cardano stands at the 8th position with a market cap of $16,084,237,814. Both ADA and ETH could be strong contenders in the near future. A major metric that has affected Cardano is its liquidity. Currently a major supply of its tokens are staked which leaves the token with lesser tokens to spare.
