cardano: Crypto trends in Q3 2021 and most anticipated events in incoming weeks
UX Researcher and Designer
What events (othen than EIP 1559 and the ETH2.0) in crypto and blockchain space are most anticipated in your opinion?
Taproot. Maybe right now, as you say, we are all talking about EIP1559 and the imminent ETH 2.0, but the long-awaited upgrade in Bitcoin is not lagging behind, whose main objective is to bring smart contracts to its ecosystem and allow it to be experienced from another perspective. Right now the topic only takes place in some blogs dedicated to Bitcoin but in a few weeks I'm sure I'll start to see it on other sites that are much more massive and with more people participating. Perhaps there is no greater novelty when talking about smart contracts, but for Bitcoin users who proclaim themselves Maximalists, this can be a new market entry point to the DeFi world for those who refuse to give up their $btc or simply they see any other new proposal on a project as an attempt to take away their precious asset or as a scam. On the other hand, in the Cardano ecosystem, the launch of the first DEX (sundaeswap) is underway, which I think is also very important considering the development time it has taken to get to this point. Cardano is one of my favorite projects and I think it will also be a focus of attention in the medium term

Exciting times. Bitcoin got a haircut, and is now implementing Taproot. Cardano will implement smart contracts. Stacks is building on the Bitcoin blockchain and we will see a variety of dApps actually deploy. There are a variety of Ether bridges taking shape which will allow Defi investment from sources of value not seen before. But mostly we are seeing the usual Bureaucratic dithering when it comes to Crypto regulation, except this time, Crypto actually matters from a national economic standpoint, so it’s time for the governments of many nations to make some decisions. The lawsuit against Ripple looks to be sputtering its way to an end and I believe that we will see some governmental decisiveness as a result. So, hold on tight, folks! This rollercoaster is nearing the top of the hill. It’s time to throw your hands in the air and scream like a little girl.

EIP 1559 is a big thing. Another one is that smart contracts will be working in August on the Cardano Blockchain. I think this will be a huge boost for ADA. There are numerous updates and news one so many projects. I think NFTs and DEFI will be having a huge run again. Plus the major coins like ETH, ADA; DOT; KSM, BNB, LINK, SOL, MATIC and the like.

One other event in crypto and blockchain space is the Cardano’s Goguen era, which will provide the tools for the development of enterprise-level, decentralized Smart contract applications, competing directly with Ethereum at a lower price. Cardano's roadmap is Split into eras. Goguen comes after Byron era delivered Cardano (ADA) Daedelus wallet and Shelley, which delivered the full decentralized network with more than on thousand stake pools earlier this year. It has started October 29th, 2020. https://roadmap.cardano.org/en/goguen/

Aside from the EIP-1559 upgrade to ETH I would say the implementation of smart contracts on Cardano is definitively a top of the list expectation for this year. After ETH and ADA I would say the upcoming improvements to Polygon MATIC are also highly anticipated. Lastly, I would include Theta's Mainnet launch at the end of June and Bitcoins recent taproot upgrade. This is a very exciting year for crypto and its worldwide adoption!
