Believing in the Future of Cardano

Rock star Gene Klein, aka Gene Simmons, has appeared in online social media with yet another pro-cryptocurrency commentary. This time KISS’s legendary bass guitarist has expressed his opinion on Cardano and its native digital coin ADA.

Meanwhile, celebrities being ambassadors of crypto assets is a particular case nowadays, as the primary digital asset Bitcoin follows a significant soaring in its price. There are several other instances where singers, actors, and sports stars have dived into the crypto pool, promoting their investment choice.

Bitcoin intelligence, data, and analytics firm Glassnode found the Bitcoin hash rate hit a new all-time high over the weekend, ten days before the Bitcoin halving event. In other words, miners are putting more computational power into maintaining the Bitcoin network. Because miners must venture electricity and capital intensive computer processors to mine Bitcoin, the increase in hash rate is a bullish sign.

While the price goes up, it’s more profitable to mine, which likely to cause more miners to turn on their mining equ...
