Cardano (ADA) Climbs to $0.34 Amidst DJED & Hoskinson Action

• ADA is gaining despite the failure of certain crypto-friendly traditional banks.
• Cardano’s founder has taken a jab at traditional banks’ reserve assets handling.
• DJED has seen a notable increase in trading volume over the past 24 hours.

The Cardano ecosystem has been defying market-wide turmoil by continuing to build during the bearish downtrend, and now, the network’s native cryptocurrency ADA is turning heads.

The notable uptrend in the price of ADA is recorded in the wake of the crisis surrounding the failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Silvergate, and the Signature Bank. These traditional banks have gained a reputation of being among the most crypto-friendly financial institutions in the U.S.

Nevertheless, Cardano is powering on with developments, events, and partnerships. ADA did touch a low point after dipping to $0.30 on March 10th, but has since made a recovery to the relief of the community.

Responding to the Stablecoin Crisis

In response to the crypto de-banking fiasco, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has taken a jab at how traditional banks handle their reserve assets compared to crypto companies.

In particular, the context of collateral management amidst the ongoing crisis surrounding the failure of Silicon Valley Bank and the Signature Bank, which coincided with a rise in Bitcoin (BTC) price leading to a positive momentum in the crypto market.

Furthermore, the network’s native decentralized stablecoin DJED has seen a notable increase in trading volume over the past 24 hours, surging 43.64%, according to CoinMarketCap. DJED has thus gained a bigger premium to the market than Tether (USDT) following the current stablecoin drama.

Amidst the Cardano network’s alignment into its next and final phase, “The Age of Voltaire,” the ecosystem exhibits notable growth and developments.

ADA’s recent flip into an upward trajectory has influenced market sentiment, and to top it off, its performance has resulted in the Altcoin earning a spot on CoinMarketCap’s trending list on March 13th.
