Bitcoin Ethereum News
  • Algorand’s ecosystem shows growth, however, its TVL continues to decline
  • Its NFT sales also took a hit along with its development activity

One of the biggest DEXes on Algorand, Tinyman, announced a new update on 25 November. Reportedly, the new Tinyman AMM v2.0 protocol was introduced to the community. 

It would offer benefits to users in ways more than one. However, its main focus would be to provide a “better user experience” and a tight “safety mechanism.”

In lieu of this, the DEX witnessed growth in terms of volume and the number of unique addresses. It’s here to be noted that the increasing interest in Algorand’s dApps could be beneficial for the ecosystem’s long-term growth.

The NFT angle

Well, Algorand wasn’t able to mark its presence in the NFT space either. As made evident by the chart below, the weekly sales for Algorand’s NFTs declined massively over the past few months.

However, despite the declining sales, the NFT volume for Algorand increased in the last 24 hours. According to Stocktwits NFT, Algorand’s NFT volume appreciated by 5% in the last 24 hours.

The top NFT collection during that period was the MNGO collection.

Algorand on-chain metrics declining?

In terms of on-chain metrics, Algorand succumbed to the pressure of the bear market.

Its volume depreciated significantly over the last week, going all the way from 442 million to 56.2 million. The ecosystem’s development activity declined as well, as can be observed in the chart below.

A decline in development activity implied that the number of contributions being made to Algorand’s GitHub by its developers had reduced significantly.

The number of active addresses on the network also depreciated by 34.87% over the last seven weeks, according to Messari.

At the time of writing, ALGO was trading at $0.2455. Its price had appreciated by 2.26% in the last 24 hours, and its market cap dominance decreased. At press time, Algorand had captured 0.25% of the overall crypto market.
