The successful launch of the Vasil hard fork on the testnet as a catalyst for growth
The much-anticipated and even at one point delayed Vasil hard fork finally went live on the Cardano testnet.
This brought the project a major step forward towards the upgrade becoming a reality on the mainnet and promising broad performance upgrades.
On April 14, 2022, we covered what we can expect after the Vasil hard fork.
However, project developers, stake pool operators (SPO), and exchanges are now encouraged to deploy their work on the testnet as a means of ensuring that the integrations run smoothly when the mainnet gets the Vasil hard fork within the span of the next four weeks.
News about the upgrade on the testnet was officially posted by the developers, Input Output, on July 3, 2022.
Once the upgrade gets completed on the mainnet, it will allow for faster block creation as well as greater scalability when it comes to decentralized applications (dApps) that run on Cardano.
It will also enable interoperability between Cardano sidechains.
Should you buy Cardano (ADA)?
On July 4, 2022, Cardano (ADA) had a value of $0.4482.
In order for us to get a better perspective as to what this value point indicates for the future of Cardano (ADA), we will be going over the cryptocurrency’s all-time high point of value, as well as its performance throughout the previous month.
The all-time high of Cardano (ADA) was on September 2, 2021, with a value of $3.09.
When we go over its performance in June, Cardano (ADA) had its highest point of value on June 8 with a value of $0.6646.
Its lowest point of value, however, was on June 18, with a value of $0.4318. Here we can see that the cryptocurrency decreased in value by $0.2328 or by 35%.
However, since then, the ADA cryptocurrency has seen an increase in its value of $0.0164 or by 3%.
With this in mind, we can expect ADA to climb to $0.8 by the end of July 2022 and go up to $1 when the Vasil hard fork goes live after four weeks, making it a worthwhile cryptocurrency to buy.
