WHAT IS CARDANO?

Cardano is a publicly accessible blockchain platform. It's decentralized and open-source, with consensus obtained by proof of stake. Its own coin, ADA, can be used to allow peer-to-peer transactions. Charles Hoskinson, a co-founder of Ethereum, established Cardano in 2015.

START OF CARDANO DOWNFALL

Despite its sluggish performance over the last six months, Cardano and its fundamentals continue to be a major draw for traders and developers. Cardano's slide, unlike that of other Altcoins, began three months before the rest of the market. Traders, on the other hand, are hoping for a swift conclusion.

PROJECT CATALYST

Project Catalyst is a quarterly innovation fund campaign that supports developer-proposed ideas. For Fund eight, the Cardano Treasury will put aside $16 million. Surprisingly, Fund Seven has received $8 million in funding for 269 projects. This quarter, the number of projects that receive money could quadruple.

Project Catalyst has doubled its capital every quarter since its creation, making it the world's largest decentralized innovation fund.

WILL THESE STIMULANTS AFFECT THE ADA'S PRICE FORECAST?

The “Fund 8” iteration of the project catalyst has been released, which aims to support ecosystem growth. Every three months, the maker launches a new project catalyst innovation fund campaign. The campaign includes Fund 8, which will handle $16 million in ADA. In its most recent iteration, Fund 7, 269 projects were funded, with an $8 million budget to execute them.

According to the corporation, the Cardano treasury stores around 800 million ADA in order to survive and flourish. The community made the decisions in Fund 8 regarding each task. The purpose is to accelerate the developer and DApp ecosystem. Proposals can be submitted starting February 24th and will be accepted until 11 a.m. UTC on March 17th.

THE NEW 2022 STRATEGIC PLAN:

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, disclosed his ambitions for 2022 during a YouTube chat show. He stated that his goal for the second half of 2022 is to figure out how to bring all the parts together to create an end-to-end Cardano microfinance transaction. In addition, the platform's founder intends to implement a mechanism that will oversee all decentralized products.

The Cardano team is now working on a program dubbed 'Cardano Improvement Proposals,' which is planned to launch in 2022. The testnet rollout, which will strengthen the network through peer-to-peer frameworks, has also been announced by Charles.

CONCLUSION:  Finally, the aforementioned catalysts have the ability to give ADA's price prediction a boost. The coming week, however, is critical for ADA and the Cardano community. Cardano partisans are hopeful that the community will retake its lost throne from Solana. When completed, the developmental projects may be able to assist the network in reaching its goal.
