In recent months, Cardano ($ADA) has emerged as a prominent player in the cryptocurrency landscape, with a significant increase in user activity and impressive growth in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector.

Importantly, this growth of Cardano is not only due to the increase in asset prices

This increase is also due to the increase in the amount of ADA locked in DeFi protocols, which has increased from 200 million to over 650 million.

Among DeFi protocols on Cardano , Indigo leads with over $120 million in TVL, closely followed by Minswap with $100 million and Liqwid with $63 million.

This growth in locked value reflects user trust and activity in these protocols.

The increase in user activity and the growth of the DeFi ecosystem have contributed to ADA’s impressive performance in the market.

With a price increase of almost 200% in the last six months, ADA is trading near $0.80 at the time of writing.

This increase in the price of ADA, along with the growth in activity and value locked in the Cardano DeFi ecosystem, underlines the interest and confidence in the project, suggesting a promising future for the platform.
