Charles Hoskinson, CEO of Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK), is now awaiting the launch of Vaccumlab's DEX. Vaccumlab is a software development company that developed Cardano wallet AdaLite.
Really looking forward to this DEX on Cardano. There are so many coming online soon https://t.co/q8M9403hIp

The Cardano blockchain recently hit 93.19% capacity, as blocks filled rapidly and proponents noted a spike in on-chain activity. Despite the recent bloodbath, the total value locked on the Cardano network hit $80 million. The total number of Cardano wallets has crossed 3 million and rising.
After hitting a key milestone in on-chain activity, the Cardano network now awaits the launch of its second DEX.
Analysts have evaluated the Cardano price trend and predicted that the altcoin's price trend could reverse if it hit $1.17. @GertVanLagen, an analyst and trader, believes that Cardano's downtrend is tested and broken.
$ADA [6h]: downtrend broken and tested.

Needs to break $1.17 to print a higher high (HH), which would validate a trend reversal.
