If you think paying for marketing and content creators doesn’t do anything, look at what just happened to Cardano.
You’ve just witnessed the power of social engineering and narratives led by influencers & media who completely changed the public opinion of Cardano, sending the price from 24 cents to 15 cents in just a week.
Crypto is not a competition of best tech it’s a competition of public perception.
The market has repeatedly shown that being technologically superior is not enough.
Just look at Solana. Despite outages and technical issues, it climbed to the top because it captured marketing. Ethereum is still number two despite being expensive to use.
Yet Cardano still likes to believe that investors solely buy based on tech, decentralization, and infra.
”build it and they’ll come“
- they won‘t.
The majority of people buy based on public attention (marketing) and perceived upside.
Infrastructure improvements may excite developers, but developers are not the market.
I strongly believe we’re in a good place right now to really push what we have already built, but it looks like this will be yet another year we let projects and public attention die for the sake of funding even more infrastructure that won’t change a thing for the majority of the end user.
Accumulation update: 👇
+2,000 $ADA added at $0.159
Total holdings: 10,000 ADA
Average price: $0.1712
Reached my initial goal of 10,000 ADA. ✅
If $ADA stays below $0.20 for a while, I won’t complain. It simply gives me more time to accumulate.🚀

Huge win for Cardano & Algorand!!
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has launched a Blockchain Advisory Group.
Cardano & Algorand are officially members, giving both ecosystems a seat at the table as blockchain adoption is explored at a global scale!!
Completely agree. Another year of extremely inefficient governance and another year of most the funds going to infrastructure development. Which means another year the growth in the ecosystem and the liquidity in the ecosystem become an afterthought.
For 2027, I really hope there is a specific categorization and budget allocation being set for once.
Something like:
Infrastructure (50%)
Ecosystem (Liquidity, Product Enhancements, TVL) (30%)
New Product/Dapp Innovation (10%)
Marketing (7%)
Admin/Operations (3%)
Any proposal that gets submitted needs to choose what category they fall into, and budgets can't exceed those certain percentages. Otherwise we get the free for all you are mentioning that we are so used to seeing take place year after year after year. Everyone races to get a piece of the pie, and most the budget goes to infrastructure leaving everyone else fight for the remaining scraps with very little time for discussion.
You can say what you want but Cardano Native Tokens are the play.
The Cardano ecosystem is still heavily undervalued.
Remember ETH DeFi Summer? Cardano DeFi Summer is next🚀
JUST IN: Cardano $ADA is included in the newly launched crypto index futures by CME Group & Nasdaq.🇺🇸
It tracks 8 cryptocurrencies including $ADA, $BTC, $ETH, $SOL, $LINK, $XRP and more.
$ADA won’t stay under $0.20 for long.
The fundamentals keep improving, adoption keeps growing, and the market won’t ignore that forever.
$0.20 will be reclaimed. 💙
