Crypto Analyst Benjamin Cowen; Says Cardano Could Realistically Reach All-Time Highs

Benjamin Cowen says Cardano (ADA) can hit all-time highs. In a recent strategy session, Cowen notes that Cardano has gained around 11,000% since March 2020 low and may need time to cool off before rallying further.

“It’s a pretty big win by ADA, so I think it makes sense to consolidate for a while and wait until the ecosystem is actually used. Until then, until that happens, I guess we’ll be more or less in a consolidation phase. Can we get $2.50 back or $2.25 back? Sure, I think it could happen anytime, but I’m not speculating to myself suspiciously at an all-time high for at least a month or so… And it could be longer than that.”

“If Bitcoin stays relatively bullish, I hope it breaks to the upside. So this would be the ideal situation. Even if we don’t hold the bull market support band, I still think it’s good. I just think we’re going to have a long re-accumulation and hopefully we’ll still move up.”

Hoskinson, Layer-2 Cardano “a necessity”

Layer-2 Cardano “a necessity” as Hoskinson predicts a huge spike in network traffic.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson describes Hydra as a “high commercial priority” due to the expected increase in traffic scale in the coming months. Especially in the near term, when projects in Africa start to spread.

He added that research on Hydra is currently ongoing. However, generally speaking, things are getting “closer” to a (version) “1.0”. Hydra is a layer 2 scaling solution that can theoretically deliver speeds up to 1 million transactions per second (TPS).

Speaking from Ethiopia, Hoskinson hosted an AMA at the weekend. As usual, it was filled with a wide variety of topics, including points about the ERC-20 converter and a brief mention of a possible deal in Egypt.

However, of more interest was talk of Hydra, Cardano’s tier 2 solution. Hoskinson said the IOHK team is busy working on it right now. He also said that they are considering recruiting other parties to accelerate its development from a commercial perspective.

Cardano is growing faster than any crypto in Africa

Charles Hoskinson, CEO of IOHK and founder of Cardana, visited Africa where he met with business people and politicians to discuss the integration of their blockchain network in Ethiopia.

Hoskinson also visited the Ethiopian Ministry of Education as part of the “Cardano Africa Tour” to explore student credentials with the country’s authorities.

The credential system aimed to reprocess the academic records of 5 million students by adding information such as attendance and grades to the blockchain to collect data and provide a digital identity system.

Hoskinson said this is the first phase of the program. Then the goal is to use this as a springboard to start a national identity system in the country. This will increase the number of users to 110 million.

Cardano is creating excitement on the global stage. According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), the Cardano Atala Prism project in Ethiopia was ranked 14th among the 50 most influential projects in 2021.

PMI has identified the project as a gamechanger that has the potential to improve the educational outcomes of Ethiopian students.

Opposition to the project initially prevailed in government, according to John O’Conner, director of Africa operations. But the government has come to realize that digital identity and blockchain technology are not the burden as originally thought.

O’Conner said the Atala Prism enables governments to fulfill their documentation management responsibilities as they move towards greater digitization.

Why does Cardano want to go to Africa?
Many people question Cardan’s presence in Africa. However, Hoskinson sees great potential and many possible partnerships in this region.

More precisely, IOHK has commented on this on its blog. The article states that Africa “is by no means faithful to the systems of the past that have not worked well here”. So all the infrastructure is in place when it comes to implementing better and more equitable ways of doing business.

IOHK wants to ride the wave of progress as Africa is clearly gaining more and more space on the global stage.

Other visits as part of “Cardano Africa Tour”
As part of the tour, Hoskinson visited Burundi, South Africa and many other countries where he met with presidents and businessmen to discuss the future of their country where digitalization based on blockchain innovation should prevail.

Hoskinson also plans to visit Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and Egypt.

Cardano (ADA) founder answers questions

Cardano (ADA) founder answers questions: ‘Cardano will see a lot of traffic soon. Cardano (ADA) has been quiet for a while. However, this does not mean that the developers behind the project do not stand still! Last weekend, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson held an Ask Me Anything (AMA) session on YouTube. He answered a series of interesting questions from the community in it.

One of the questions was about the Plutus Application Backend (PAB). This is a platform where developers can develop and maintain smart contracts more easily. According to Hoskinson, PAB is expected to launch this month. According to him, this could suddenly put huge pressure on the network as many developers will start working.

This led Hoskinson to the next big development, namely Hydra. Hydra is a scaling solution that dramatically increases the number of possible transactions per second on Cardano. Hoskinson explains that enabling sidechains will allow the launch of special-purpose chains, an important step: “It will be able to (soon) offload most of the transaction traffic from all future applications. With PAB coming online, Cardano is dealing with massive amounts of traffic. Hydra is a necessity for this…”

Also, the founder discussed the fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) that has existed for some time. Cardano is accused of being able to process too few transactions and having a block size that is too small. For example, increasing the block size does not mean that larger smart contracts can be developed. But that’s not true: “It’s a lie… If you increase the amount of raw storage the block has, of course there can be more scripts in that block.”

Cardano to Manage Future Traffic on Blockchain

Cardano founder said that hydra will handle future traffic on Cardano Blockchain. In the most recent “Ask me anything” session, Charles Hoskinson shared his upcoming development work on the Cardano Blockchain network.

Charles Hoskinson, CEO of IOHK Global team & founder of Cardano, revealed on YouTube in the last AMA session. However, he did not live from his native Colorado. He aired the AMA session directly from Ethiopia as he was in Ethiopia as part of the Cardano Africa Tour.

Through the live session, Charles Hoskinson shared information about the many development work in Cardano, especially the necessity of Hydra for Cardano.

Above all, he appreciated the enabled “ERC-20 converter tool” bridge between Ethereum and Cardano to enable ERC-20 token users to take advantage of transacting on Cardano Blockchain with very low fees.

In addition, Charles Hoskinson said that the large crypto adoption traffic of transactions is increasing rapidly and will be at a high level in the future. The latest Alonzo upgrade that enables Hydra is a huge need for the Cardano blockchain.

Visit of Hoskinson Charles, creator of ETHEREUM and creator of CARDANO – ADA

Burundi: Visit of HOSKINSON Charles, co-creator of ETHEREUM and creator of CARDANO – ADA. Head of Burundi HE NDAYISHIMIYE Evariste (Major General), co-creator of ETHEREUM (2nd most important decentralized cryptocurrency after BITCOIN) and his team received a visit with Mr. HOSKINSON Charles and creator of the ADA digital currency. To be an internal cryptocurrency of CARDANO (Swiss-based Multinational, 60 billion USD Capital). Explaining that he wants to help Burundi digitize its public service; Empowering Barundi women and youth; and financing Burundi small and medium enterprises.

Cryptocurrency is a currency linked to a financial practice born in the wake of the global financial crisis – the banking crisis – in 2008. Ultra-capitalist neoliberals are infuriated to lose a lot of money with traditional capitalism subordinated to the Central Bank (the bank of all central banks based in Switzerland). ), they have now decided to lend money to each other, bypassing the Bank. Thus, Bitcoin and many other digital currencies will be born. In short, individuals fund each other with digital currency using blockchain, the revolutionary technology of a digital ledger, to establish trust.

Ingoma Y’Uburund i, a millennial African kingdom traditionally finances itself with production run by Bahutu Barundi [http://bdiagnews.com/hutu]. Ingoma Y’Uburundi doesn’t need banks. As the pillar of the capitalist project (see Colonization, Slavery) linked to the market economy, the introduction of the Bank began under Belgian colonization in Burundi in 1960, 2 years after independence. It became the Bank of the Kingdom of Burundi (BRB) in 1964 and ended with the Bank of the Republic of Burundi (BRB). As the bank was incompatible with the existence of Bahutu Barundi in 1972, the latter suffered a genocide: the 1972 genocide against the Burundi Bahutu [http://bdiagnews.com/genocide.htm ; https://bdiagnews.com/genocide-contre-les-hutu-du-burundi-en-1972/ ]. Produced by the neocolonial ALLIANCE (USA, VATICAN, France, Belgium and BAHIMA BARUNDI).

From colonization (crime against humanity) to the present, the financing of Burundi’s planning (all national policies) is carried out through BRB Bank, which is affiliated to the Swiss-based Central Bank.

HOSKINSON Charles, the American ultra-capitalist neoliberal, wants to offer Barundi an alternative to BRB using the open-source blockchain CARDAN and the digital currency (or cryptocurrency) ADA. But this digital currency requires Burundi to reach the electric and internet industrial revolutions. Which is not like that. Except for a privileged Barundi class, of course…

New certification levels for smart contracts on Cardano

High assurance is paramount when developing and working with smart contracts. You want to be confident that the source code is of a high quality, that the contract is secure and will behave as it should, and that it utilizes good properties and behaviors in the process. Certification ensures that security checks are performed prior to any deployment, and that smart contracts can be continually audited as they are updated. It provides benefits to both smart contract developers and end users, helping protect user funds and project reputations alike from coding errors or exploits.

At September’s Cardano Summit 2021, we laid out our plans on the introduction of new levels of certification for decentralized applications (DApps) running on Cardano. This certification program will provide levels of quality for DApps and their internal smart contacts.

This initiative has been led by Professor Simon Thompson, technical project director at IOG, and Shruti Appiah, head of product at IOG. It will help us comply with the best practices we’ve seen around the industry. We are working with Runtime Verification, Tweag, Well Typed, Certik, and others to roll out this new certification program that will link in with the new dAppStore, also unveiled in prototype form at the summit. This will be released in conjunction with the new light wallet.

What are the different certification levels?

There are three levels of certification, each of which is complementary to the others, rather than being progressive in terms of assurance and auditing purposes.

Level one: Automated tooling

This certification level gives continual assurance about a range of properties for smart contracts. It covers the discovery of different types of issues or bugs and is characterized as low cost, low effort, accessible to everyone while providing a substantial level of assurance.

It can be applied repeatedly and automatically, so each time there is a release or a sub-release of an application, we can test to ensure that the application still has the properties that we expect.

Level two: In-depth audit

This level involves looking at the technology and processes that led to it being produced. It is characterized by the fact that it involves a manual audit and verification of smart contracts within the DApp itself.

The testing is performed at a much more in-depth level and involves more manual effort that can address a DApp in its entirety, even if it is written in a variety of languages.

Level three: Formal verification

This level is more specialized where we aim to provide full assurance of critical aspects of applications through formal verification of smart contracts. Formal verification involves ensuring that a smart contract serves the specific business or technical requirements defined at the outset.

What kind of assurance can we expect?

Certification will ensure the correctness, compliance, and consistency of requirements by both application developers and auditors. It will also guarantee the absence of common security vulnerabilities and provide a level of robustness, reliability, and maintenance of DApps deployed on Cardano. While certification will be strongly encouraged and the store curated accordingly, it will not however be mandatory or act as any kind of ‘gatekeeper’ thus maintaining a balance between the need for user assurance and decentralized principles.

By auditing the specifications and design and ideation phases, you can present evidence to the community and guarantee that things will work as expected. This evidence includes documentation of requirements to a detailed level, thereby creating a reference point for the future.

Certification status in the dAppStore

We plan to integrate this certification with the new dAppStore that we are building to provide cryptographically secure non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that give evidence of the levels of certification that we will guarantee. The dAppStore will be part of a light wallet that IO is developing, and users will be able to access the light wallet and dAppStore using a web browser, and in the store to view the certification status of each DApp as they browse through the categories and individual applications. Making the relevant certification status visible to users during the selection process will offer reassurance on quality and safety for users in their choice of DApps.

What is next for certification?

Professor Thompson says: We want to build support from the industry for emerging standards of certification. In the longer term, we will work with our partners and others to articulate best practices, which may involve forming an umbrella industry body to define new standards and practices for this domain.

We also plan to work with our ecosystem of partners to support certification of the first DApps on Cardano; one of a number of DEXs looking to launch on Cardano this year SundaeSwap also announced their plans at the summit to certify.

It is still early days. There are some technical challenges that we are busy working through about how we support versioning of DApps, how they will be packaged, and how to make them available to automated tooling. However, we are very excited about this journey with our partners and the general community to deliver a secure platform and applications built on top of it.

To learn even more about certification levels, and meet some of the partners on the program, make sure you watch the certification session from the Cardano summit.
