<p>As of January 22, 2024, the Cardano blockchain boasted 24,050 V1 and V2 Plutus smart contracts. This number represents a significant surge from January 1, 2024, when it was recorded at 14,379. The increase of 9,671 smart contracts in just three weeks showcases the rapid growth and adoption of Cardano’s smart contract platform.</p>
<p>Cardano’s growth is not limited to smart contracts alone. According to Taptools, a wallet tracking platform, Cardano witnessed a substantial increase in transaction volume. The previous week, Cardano recorded transactions exceeding $34.33 billion, with values greater than $100,000. This surge in transaction volume reflects the growing interest and use of Cardano’s blockchain for various purposes.</p>

<p>Cardano’s success extends beyond smart contracts and transactions. Data from Cardano developer Input Output Global (IOG) revealed that 157 projects had been launched on the platform as of the week ending January 19, 2024.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Furthermore, an impressive 1,319 projects were actively under development. This thriving ecosystem of Cardano-based initiatives and developers highlights the platform’s attractiveness for innovation and growth.</p>

<p>CoinGecko’s data<a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/cardano" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank"> indicates </a>that ADA has experienced a 5% decrease over the past week and a 21.1% decrease over the past thirty days.
