The layer-2 scaling solution’s launch is key to the Cardano blockchain as it would allow the parallel processing of transactions and smart contracts. Hydra’s implementation in the Cardano ecosystem would have similar results as the Ethereum network expects from “sharding” or creating parallel blockchains.
The Cardano development team continued working on the altcoin’s wallet, increasing its compatibility with the latest version of the node, v.1.32.1.
Analysts have evaluated the Cardano price chart and noted hidden bullish divergences. Crypto analysts at the YouTube channel “CoinsKid,” observed the price drop to $1.27 in a falling wedge pattern, and believe that this is a bull flag.
Cardano price could break resistance at $1.34 and retrace previous levels in a bullish sequel. The analyst considers the falling wedge pattern a precursor of a Cardano price rally, setting a target of $1.47, 10% climb from the current level.
FXStreet analysts believe that Cardano price is approaching its market bottom after the 60% crash.
