Cardano ecosystem has been recording tremendous growth since the implementation of the Alonzo hard fork in September 2021, which implemented smart contract functionality on the proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain.
This notable growth is based on new features and updates, including buyer interest as over 2,000 new wallets are being created on the network on a daily basis over the past month despite market volatility.
