On Monday (March 3), we explored the significant position of Cardano (ADA) in the cryptocurrency space and its long-term prospects. For years, Cardano (ADA) has been a cornerstone in the cryptocurrency field, consistently ranking among the top in market capitalization. However, despite its prominent status, the performance of ADA has led many investors to question its long-term outlook.

Despite recently making headlines in the national cryptocurrency reserve proposal put forth by U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday (March 2), its price action and on-chain activity tell a different story—some critics even label it as a "zombie."

Recent findings indicate that the ecosystem behind ADA, the Cardano network, is significantly lagging in decentralized finance (DeFi) adoption. Compared to Ethereum and Solana, its total value locked (TVL) accounts for only a small fraction, and Cardano is struggling to attract liquidity and stablecoin activity.

While some believe its DeFi sector is still in its early stages, several newer blockchains have already surpassed it in user engagement and trading volume. The question now is whether the upcoming developments can reverse this trend.

With key catalysts emerging, such as a potential ADA exchange-traded fund (ETF) and its emerging role in the Bitcoin DeFi ecosystem, 2025 could be a pivotal year for ADA. But will these developments be enough to turn the tide?
