2 Top Cryptocurrencies to Buy for the Long Haul
The total cryptocurrency market cap has soared about 200% this year, hitting $2.5 trillion at the time this was written. Much of that growth has come from Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), which makes up about 45% of the market, according to Coinmarketcap.com. But over the long term, other digital assets such as Cardano (CRYPTO: ADA) and Aave (CRYPTO: AAVE) could help drive growth and adoption in this exciting sector. Let's explore why.
Launched in 2017, Cardano is a public blockchain platform that facilitates peer-to-peer transactions through its internal cryptocurrency called Ada. The platform allows users to program decentralized applications (dApps). And it has an edge over rival programable blockchains like Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) because of its more environmentally friendly proof-of-stake mining process called Ouroboros.
