Manta, a modular L1 blockchain launched in September 2023, has clinched the 9th position in the list of top projects by Total Value Locked (TVL). With $468 million, it has outperformed rivals such as Sui, Cardano, and Base. Despite this achievement, the trading activity on its DEX remains relatively low ($4.6 million).

Bitcoin maximalist Max Keiser has initiated a fresh bout of hostility towards altcoins, specifically targeting Cardano. This provoked a range of negative and, at times, derogatory responses from the community, further inciting him to persist with his inappropriate tirades.

In the last two years, the number of Cardano investors holding onto their coins for over a year has surged nearly ninefold, now at 2.7 million wallets. At the same time, a decline in the number of medium-term investors suggests a notable trend toward long-term investment strategies among Cardano users.

Cardano Foundation's recent tweaks in its delegation strategy, targeting improved operation and quality, have been rolled out.
