Cardano (ADA): A New Cryptocurrency and More

[adatainment]

Hi guys. Can you suggest a trustworthy lightweight wallet for ADA?
I'm thinking something like coinomi or electrum...

Yoroi: https://yoroi-wallet.com
It's developed by Emurgo, the commercial arm of Cardano.

Adalite.io: https://www.adalite.io
AdaLite.io was developed by vacuumlabs, they were also responsible for the Cardano Ledger app and won the crypto puzzle at the IOHK Summit 2019.

At the peak of 2018’s bubble, the altcoin was trading above $1.00. That coincided with a market capitalization of over $30 billion. At the time, Cardano’s market cap was the size of a mid-large-cap company.

Any idea what's the current transaction per second on CARDANO is? And will the upcoming hardfork play any role in increasing the TPS of the chain?

Cardano’s proof-of-stake protocol is set to bring about unprecedented decentralization, but the mechanisms that drive it are still a mystery to many. Cardano’s chief scientist professor Aggelos Kiayias dove deep into Ouroboros and detailed the principles on which the ambitious protocol is based on.

ADA is going to be a game-changing protocol, which they are many customers are showing interest in this protocol. POS model is a trend which many companies are showing interest in this POS protocol, ADA is one of my best platform which we can hold this coin for long term asset.

A huge green ADA/ETH candle at Bittrex, someone bought near 3 M of ADA. What was that, an error or a deliberate action to increase the strength of his/her voice at the upcoming vote? Improbable as it may be, that one who did it has a point (or good source of inside?).

This is the old school buy the rumor, sell the news. In my opinion after the launch of the ADA stacking mainnet the price will rise, how much no one knows but you must be prepared for it. I think this happened with this guy/gal on bittrex.

Agree with you, still, there is no specific news about the stacking main net, ADA is already having very good exposure and people who are holding ADA are kept waiting for the staking, Not only Bittrex, this coin has already listed in many other high volume exchanges.

Those who are holding ADA  will not live on staking alone, now they can book hotels using ADA on Travala platform. https://zycrypto.com/cardanos-emurgo-and-travala-bookings-platform-team-up-to-boost-real-world-ada-adoption/ Staking is  for those who have hundred of thousands or even millions of ADA. People like me who spend their free time on sightseeing tours will use ADA for travels booking. Can not wait when the world will be free of COVID.

Of course, be it might be option to travel around the world but once they start staking we might earn some new reward and it will help you to book high-grade motels. ADA is a long term project which now the value of the coin is also kept increasing its demand in the exchanges, definitely it is very good to hold this coin for the long term.

That's a good adoption. I was wondering what made ADA go up to $0.10 today so its not just about the Fund for Ecosystem Startups of IOHK but also this one that holders can now use it to book a hotel. Anything else that will make this project shoot up?   No Defi related project?

Wow, coinbase listing would be really awesome because from what I have noticed coins get seriously pumped before the listing on coinbase if the same happens to ADA we would start breaking through the resistances.
