Is there a reason why Cardano is so ignored on Bitcointalk.org and even bashed by times? I have done years of research and picked Cardano among a number of other altcoins to invest in and was never worried of "failing deadlines", a "narcistic Charles Hoskinson" or "no use-cases but only a wallet" statements.
Ask yourself the question, why would one invest in something? The golden rule regarding investing in something is that it is (or should be) able to add value to the current value of it, e.g. stocks, real estate, commodities, etc, etc)
Investing or speculating in an altcoin is a highly risky investment with on the other side a potential enormous reward. Mass adoption is still not the case and it will take years before some adoption from the wider public and more investments from institutional investors will drive up the prices of some altcions. Eventually only altcoins with the best tech, best use cases and best marketing will survive and will work together with companies, governments, banks, etc, when it comes to adoption and the value of these altcoins will rise dramatically.
So, now Cardano. Why is this project/altcoin so ignored while it
- has argumently the best underlying tech of all altcoins including one of the most TPS
- is peer-reviewed by the highest standards so every product roll-out will be flawless as possible
- is finally delivering in 2020 (Shelly, partnerships, possibilty of creating smart contracts, etc)
- is rolling out marketing end of 2020
Is it really beacuase Charles Hoskinson left Ethereum and started Cardano and this sub is Ethereum minded?
Don't miss the opportunity when you missed the bitcoin train; Cardano has a good chance to become the new standard for crypto technology and adaption by DEFI's and smart contracts.
You are right, Cardano is gearing up for big updates throughout this year, recently they have implemented 'Shelley'which is considered a success so overall i am really bullish for cardano and remember previous all time high was around $1.2 so this time around new peak can easily be around $4-$5 easily. Coinbase custody has already announced staking for ada later this year and i think it will also be available in general coinbase wallet so we can expect more pumps soon.
