Decrypting Charles Hoskinson’s Enigmatic Tweet: What’s the Message Behind ‘We did it’?

• Cardano network has grown to a major smart contract ecosystem with more than $366 million in Total Value Locked as the core developers led by Input Output continue to build the necessary infrastructure for ADA mass adoption.
• Amid the ongoing altcoin awakening, ADA price has rallied more than 11 percent in the past seven days, thus signaling impending implosion in the coming months.

Cardano (ADA), a leading layer one blockchain that is focused on democratizing smart contracts through the web3 industry, has recorded notable developments in the past few years to guarantee a bullish outlook in the upcoming cycle. As a result, the Cardano network has attracted notable attention from both retail traders and institutional investors due to its deep liquidity and economics.

Furthermore, about 22.78 billion of the total ADA circulating supply, representing 62 percent, has already been staked by different investors. Additionally, the Cardano network has so far facilitated more than 22k smart contracts from leading decentralized financial platforms like Indig CDP, Minswap DEX, and Liqwid Lending, among many others. 

Nevertheless, the Cardano network is facing immense competition from other layer-one blockchains that are offering similar services and are backed by reputable venture capitals. For instance, Solana (SOL), Tron (TRX), and BSC ecosystems have been at the forefront of mainstream smart contracts adoption against all odds.

Meanwhile, the Cardano network has the advantage of having a committed team of core developers led by co-founder Charles Hoskinson and the entire Input Output team. Despite the development activities being lower in the past month compared to prior ones, the Cardano network was named the top altcoin with notable GitHub commits by market intelligence platform Santiment.
