Cardano (ADA) saw a number of upgrades in the last few months, which brought not only new functionalities, such as smart contracts support, but also a massive increase in interest and usage. As a result, the project’s price skyrocketed, and so did its market cap, allowing it to become the 4th-largest cryptocurrency.
