Cardano—the third generation crypto is now trading below $0.13 after having traded bullishly above $0.14 over the past weeks. However, ADA is maintaining a clear trade above $0.100, and after Shelly in progress for the blockchain platform, the native token is not likely to dip below $0.100—the major support.
Cryptocurrencies have proved their worth over the period. In this time of the Pandemic, Fiat and the US Dollar is no longer the same standard currency due to unlimited printing in a barely surviving economy. With this, Cardano is modern crypto after the 1st and 2nd generation Bitcoin and Ethereum, but is it an already forgotten DeFi?
Well, Cardano’s major use is just staking but diversifying the portfolio as per individual’s risk and return calculated ratio, it can or cannot be a DeFi investment. Cardano undoubtedly has a solid base and is a peer-reviewed project, and the team at IOHK is completely dedicated to following their roadmap and has a great future. One of the top 10 blockchains of the market is now an illustrious performer.
Is Cardano $ADA the forgotten DeFi son?
Ready to surprise everyone when we least expect it… 🤩

Right after breaching the 2-year long resistance above $0.15 at $0.156, Cardano tested the lowest around $0.11 towards the end of the previous week. After having drawn a downtrend over the past week, ADA/USD is now hitting a lower Bollinger Band on a 24-hour chart.
