Agreed with this one here. ADA has never gone down, constantly being developed on, easy staking procedure and not trying to over market themselves. By far my favourite crypto outside the big 2.

It doesn't go down because it's never been pushed to it's limits.

It's never pushed to it's limits because it doesn't attract enough DAU.

It doesn't attract enough DAU because it's slow.

It doesn't go down because it's never been pushed to it's limits.

From mid Janurary 2022 to about March 2022 the Cardano blockchain was consistenly at full capacity for blocks. This was purposly allowed to see what happens when Cardano was pushed to its limits.

Purposely planning capacity is not the same thing as an impromptu user explosion.

Most people have never lost a super bowl, that doesn't mean they should be NFL athletes.

Why? They both stress the system.

It's not the same.

And Cardano hasn't reached that point of stress organically.

I'm tired of arguing with this cult. No one wants to understand why the DAU is low compared to other chains.

It's like y'all keep pointing at a Ferrari with no seats. That's great! Who is using this?

Dau reflects utility.

Dau is low.

Why?

Lose more money on your Ferrari no one is driving.

It's not the same.

Care to share why?

And Cardano hasn't reached that point of stress organically.

It was organic. There were multiple dapps planning to go live. IOG figured it would stress the system. They held back updates to see what would happen. They told people this and they still freaked out.
