Cardano blockchain, a key metric has soared to its highest level since March 2022. The total value locked (TVL) in Cardano has reached $278.02 million.

Minswap, a decentralized exchange (DEX), follows with a TVL of $63.96 million. The diversity in project types, from DEXes like Minswap to lending platforms like Liqwid and Djed Stablecoin, shows the versatility and robustness of the Cardano ecosystem.
