Meanwhile, Cardano’s ADA has also faced challenges, recently dropping out of the top ten cryptocurrencies by market cap. ADA is currently trading around $0.3533, with a market cap of $12.6 billion.
Controversy Grows Around Pal’s Warning on ADA and XRP
Raoul Pal’s recent comments only contribute to the increasing doubts about the legitimacy of ADA and XRP. He said that investors should avoid these altcoins because they lack innovation compared to the new projects coming up. Pal’s views have raised controversy within the crypto world, especially because both ADA and XRP are still performing badly in the current market.
Adding to the criticism, analyst Max Prime labeled XRP as one of the biggest scams in the crypto space. However, due to Ripple’s recent legal victories, the price of XRP has not seen much increase, raising many questions about its future. Prime’s statements have only added more fuel to the fire regarding XRP’s future, especially given that the asset remains a contentious one in the market.

Yassin Mobarak, the founder of Dizercapital, also shared similar sentiments. According to Mobarak, XRP is a cryptocurrency that investors should not ignore when the bulls come out to play. He agreed that there is “pain, boredom, and demoralization” in staying long on XRP, but he insists that the longer-term gains make it worth it.
Cardano Community Anticipates the Upcoming Chang Hard Fork
While such criticism is ongoing, the community of the Cardano token is looking forward to the Chang hard fork that is expected to be implemented on 27 th of August. This hard fork is expected to bring in a new community-driven governance model, something that has not been seen in the Cardano network. Charles Hoskinson, the CEO of Cardano, has been generating anticipation for the event and even invited Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse to the conversation to respond to Raoul Pal’s statements.
So @bgarlinghouse, when are we going to the Secret Cult meetings? I never got the memo from Raoul https://t.co/Q9NBEoBcfs

The final decision on the hard fork’s launch will be made by August 23, with the community watching closely. Last week, a crucial step was made when around 70% of Cardano’s stake pool operators upgraded to Node Version 9.1.0, preparing for the hard fork. This means that the successful integration of this upgrade is critical for the hard fork to happen seamlessly. Hoskinson has been rather vocal about this shift, saying that it will be a new era for Cardano, one where there will be more and more community-driven governance.
