Cardano (ADA) exited the month of November with its total market capitalization and its blockchain\u2019s total value locked (TVL) taking a heavy hit from the FTX collapse that dragged down the entire crypto market.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to data from <\/span>CoinMarketCap<\/span><\/a>, when last month ended, ADA\u2019s overall valuation was at $10.7 billion, 23% lower than the $13.9 billion market cap it had towards the end of October. On a yearly basis, the crypto asset witnessed 69% decline in this category.<\/span><\/p>\n

In terms of TVL, the Cardano <\/span>network tallied<\/span><\/a> a total of $58.8 million in November 30. The value was lower by 16% from what was registered by the blockchain 30 days prior. Currently, the network made a slight recovery as its TVL as of press time was $59.69 million.<\/span><\/p>\n

If ADA can maintain this consistency, it won’t be a surprised that it will have a merry Yuletide season.<\/span><\/p>\n

It currently ranks 9<\/span>th<\/span> among all cryptocurrencies courtesy of its overall valuation which stands at $11.27 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cardano Network Leads In Development Activity<\/b><\/h2>\n

The peak of Cardano\u2019s network activity came on November 21 shortly after the announcement for the release of the blockchain\u2019s <\/span>algorithmic stablecoin<\/span><\/a>, Djed, was announced.

When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper.

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley! So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto.

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC.
