Cardano的ADA代币交易量已经爆炸，平均每天7.2亿美元

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的一篇社交媒体帖子激发了这一崛起，他将ADA称为该国战略加密保护区中的代币之一。

Trading volumes for Cardano's ADA token have exploded of late, averaging around $720 million daily in February and exceeding an average of $1.4 billion daily in March, compared to about $350 million in December 2023.

Cardano的ADA代币的交易量已经爆炸了，2月平均每天约7.2亿美元，3月平均每天平均超过14亿美元，而2023年12月12日约有3.5亿美元。

The rise was spurred by a social media post by U.S. President Donald Trump, who mentioned ADA as one of the tokens that would be included in the nation's strategic crypto reserve.

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的一项社交媒体帖子激发了这种崛起，后者将艾达（Ada）称为该国战略加密保护区之一。

Although Cardano is enjoying its moment of mainstream attention, the layer-1 blockchain has been quietly emerging as a crypto juggernaut since it went live in late 2017.

尽管Cardano享受着主流关注的时刻，但自2017年底上线以来，这层区块链就一直在悄悄地成为加密制制章。

The ADA token has a market cap of $25.6 billion but what's more notable is what's under the hood; data from Google shows that the Cardano blockchain has more than 5 million unique wallets and 1.3 million delegators, with thousands of new wallets being created per day.

ADA令牌的市值为256亿美元，但更值得注意的是摇滚乐队。 Google的数据表明，Cardano区块链有超过500万个独特的钱包和130万个代表，每天创建成千上万的新钱包。

The blockchain also has $329 million in total value locked (TVL), although Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard believes that metric is overemphasized by crypto communities.

该区块链的总价值​​锁定为3.29亿美元（TVL），尽管Cardano Foundation首席执行官Frederik Gregaard认为Crypto社区过分强调了公制。

Instead, he points to "non-value transactions" associated with people conducting real-world – albeit non-financial – activities on blockchain rails: Minting a decentralized ID, tracking metadata, recording documents, that sort of thing. Cardano's a hotbed of such activity, he said.

取而代之的是，他指出了与进行现实世界的人们相关的“非价值交易”（尽管是非财务 - 区块链导轨的活动：铸造一个分散的ID，跟踪元数据，记录文档，等等。他说，卡尔达诺是这样的活动的温床。

"I'm fighting to ensure that 50% of the activity is a non-value transaction," Gregaard told CoinDesk.

Gregaard告诉Coindesk：“我正在努力确保50％的活动是一项非价值交易。”

One example of this is Cardano's partnership with Veritree, which saw the Cardano community donate over 1 million ADA tokens to plant 1 million mangrove trees in Kenya, with each donation verified and tracked on the blockchain.

一个例子是Cardano与Veritree的合作关系，Veritree的合作关系使Cardano社区捐赠了超过100万个ADA代币，在肯尼亚种植了100万个红树林，每次捐赠都在区块链上进行了验证和跟踪。

Last week, the Cardano Foundation also announced a deal with SERPRO — Brazil's largest state-owned IT company — to accelerate blockchain adoption in South America. SERPRO processes 33 billion transactions annually for 90% of Brazil's federal administration. Additionally, 8,000 employees will also receive blockchain training.

上周，Cardano基金会还宣布了与巴西最大的国有IT公司Serpro的协议，以加速南美的区块链采用。 Serpro每年处理330亿个交易，占巴西联邦政府的90％。此外，8,000名员工还将接受区块链培训。

Cardano's perspective differs from the likes of Solana and the slew of layer-2 networks like Base that pride themselves on total value locked (TVL) and hype-driven movements like memecoins and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Cardano的观点不同于Solana和类似第2层网络（例如基础）之类的，这些网络以总价值锁定（TVL）和炒作驱动的动作（例如Memecoins和Notible Able-Fimible Diskens（NFTS）（NFTS））感到自豪。

TVL on Solana grew from $2.2 billion to more than $10 billion in 2024, Cardano meanwhile zipped from a modest $445 million to $537 million in the same period.

索拉纳（Solana）的TVL从2024年的22亿美元增长到超过100亿美元，同时，Cardano从同期的4.45亿美元减少到5.37亿美元。

DeFi on Cardano

在卡尔达诺（Cardano）上的defi

Whilst Cardano Foundation's CEO said his focus is on real-world use cases, the blockchain still boasts a bustling DeFi ecosystem under the surface.

尽管Cardano Foundation的首席执行官表示，他的重点是现实世界中的用例，但区块链仍然在表面下拥有繁华的Defi生态系统。

Minswap is Cardano's native decentralized exchange (DEX). Its cumulative trading volume hit $3.4 billion this month with December alone notching a near-record $271 million, DefiLlama data shows.

Minswap是Cardano的本地分散交易所（DEX）。 DeFillama数据显示，本月其累计交易量达到了34亿美元，仅12月就获得了近2.71亿美元的收入。

There are also a number of lending protocols including Liqwid, Lenfi and Optim Finance, with TVL across Cardano's lending sector exceeding $116 million.

还有许多贷款协议，包括Liqwid，Lenfi和Optim Finance，TVL遍布Cardano的贷款部门超过1.16亿美元。

But the key part of Gregaard's mission, he insists, is not to exceed that 50% level for financialized transactions. He sees it as staying in line with the Cardano Foundation's non-profit ethos, even if it limits potential exponential growth of hype-fueled movements like memecoins.

但是，他坚持认为，格雷戈德任务的关键部分不得超过财务交易的50％。他认为这与Cardano基金会的非营利性精神保持一致，即使它限制了诸如Memecoins之类的炒作运动的潜在指数增长。

Cardano Foundation vs Hoskinson vs Emurgo

Fulfilling that ethos has its own challenges, mostly because the blockchain is run by three main entities: the Cardano Foundation, Charles Hoskinson's IOG and Emurgo. The latter two are commercial businesses, which can cause friction between them and the foundation.

实现精神有自己的挑战，主要是因为区块链由三个主要实体运行：卡尔达诺基金会，查尔斯·霍斯金森的IOG和Emurgo。后两个是商业企业，这可能会引起它们与基金会之间的摩擦。

"The intent of having a non-profit was that you can optimize decision-making based on 10 years, it's different than if you optimize decision-making tomorrow," Gregaard added.

Gregaard补充说：“拥有非营利组织的目的是，您可以根据10年来优化决策，这与明天优化决策的情况不同。”

Some of the friction was highlighted by an anonymous Cardano community member in December, who penned an email on a path forward and detailed how the entities running Cardano were at loggerheads.

12月，一位匿名Cardano社区成员强调了其中的一些摩擦，他们在前进的道路上写了一封电子邮件，并详细介绍了运行Cardano在Loggerheads的实体。

"CF’s recent burst of activity is part of a larger strategic play—an attempt to undermine Charles, IOG, Intersect, and the broader governance roadmap," the email read.

电子邮件写道：“ CF最近的活动爆发是更大的战略性作用的一部分 - 试图破坏Charles，IOG，Intersect和更广泛的治理路线图。”

"It's been a long and difficult road, but I do agree with some of the sentiments of the whistleblower," Hoskinson wrote in response on X.

霍斯金森在X上回应时写道：“这是一条漫长而艰难的道路，但我确实同意举报人的一些观点。”

Gregaard, however, was more diplomatic about any potential rift.

但是，格雷戈德（Gregaard）对任何潜在的裂痕更为外交。

"There's no monetary exchange going on between us, but we do work very closely together," he said.

他说：“我们之间没有进行货币交流，但我们确实非常紧密地合作。”

"We sometimes go to [a conference] and we share a booth. So we come together and we sponsor booths together, that's the closest you will get to any affiliates, which is very different compared to both the Ethereum foundation or Tezos foundation, where they basically

“有时我们参加[会议]，我们共享一个摊位。所以我们在一起，我们一起赞助摊位，这是您与任何分支机构最接近的，这与以太坊基金会或Tezos Foundation相比都非常不同
