Cardano

<p>Once again, the Cardano crypto firm is making headlines for its performance. This time, it’s the record adoption of smart contracts powered by the blockchain that is drawing attention. Since the beginning of the year, the number has almost tripled. An additional sign of the dynamic momentum&nbsp;of this crypto ecosystem.</p>
<h2 id="h-cardano-s-smart-contract-adoption-rate-exceeds-200">Cardano’s Smart Contract Adoption Rate Exceeds 200%!</h2>
<p>The Cardano crypto firm has witnessed a remarkable increase in smart contract adoption this year. Plutus, Cardano’s smart contract platform, now hosts an impressive number of 14,302 smart contracts as of December 26, 2023.</p>

<p>On January 1st of the same&nbsp;year, Plutus hosted exactly 4,731&nbsp;smart contracts. This result, therefore, represents at the very least, a substantial growth of over 200&nbsp;%, marking an important milestone in the evolution of the Cardano blockchain.</p>
<p><a href="https://finbold.com/cardano-adds-almost-10000-smart-contracts-in-2023/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">This notable increase</a> is not a coincidence. It is attributed to intensive development efforts. In particular, the introduction of the Plutus V2 Cost Model network upgrade, which aims to increase the capacity of scripts.</p>
<p>Furthermore, this increase can be credited to the team responsible for Plutus. Indeed, their commitment to continuous improvement has facilitated a smooth transition as other teams prepare for the release of version 9.0.</p>
