In 2021, the ADA has risen by more than 1567%. The ADA receives more media coverage due to its skyrocketing price.

Bitcoin, the most popular cryptocurrency, is having trouble breaking through the $ 50,000 mark. Altcoins are reportedly stealing all the attention.

ADA has been doing great in anticipation of the long-awaited Alonzo update.

A recent IOG announcement stated that smart contracts are now supported by the Cardano testnet.

IOHK writes:

“So there we have it. Since c. 20:20 UTC today, the #Cardano Testnet now officially supports #Plutus #smartcontracts. Final testing & integrations ahead. SPOs will now upgrade their mainnet nodes. Then next stop… mainnet upgrade. Still on track for 12 September. Onward! $ADA”





According to the team, final integration and testing are now underway in preparation for the mainnet launch on September 12.
