Warning! Stop focusing on the short-term ups and downs of SOL and ADA! When the news broke about Cardano and Solana connecting directly, many people's first reaction was, 'Quick, buy coins and wait for the price to skyrocket.' But as an analyst who has been navigating the crypto space for many years, I need to pour a bucket of cold, rational water: the true value of this collaboration lies not in short-term price fluctuations, but in long-term ecological dividends!
First, let me break down the first key takeaway: the ultimate solution to cross-chain pain points is being tackled by these two giants. I've seen too many investors suffer from cross-chain issues—either they have to wait over half an hour to transfer coins, or the transaction fees are higher than the amount transferred. The worst case is encountering a bridge theft, where the money simply disappears. Why does this happen? Because most current cross-chain systems operate on a 'third-party intermediary model,' which is like having to travel from City A to City B via City C. City C not only charges tolls but may also have thieves.
The underlying direct connection between SOL and ADA is like constructing a direct expressway between City A and City B, with no middlemen and no extra toll fees, and the speed is fast. What does this mean for the entire industry? It reduces the circulation cost of crypto assets and improves capital efficiency. It is important to understand that one of the core competitive advantages of the crypto industry is 'liquidity'; capital can flow smoothly, safely, and at low cost, which can foster more quality applications. My judgment is that once the direct connection is implemented, developers of applications in the two ecosystems will experience explosive growth, especially those projects that require cross-chain cooperation, such as cross-chain DeFi and cross-chain NFT trading platforms.
The second key point: opportunities for ordinary investors lie in ecological applications rather than base coins. Many people rush to buy SOL and ADA upon hearing good news, but in fact, the price increase of base coins may have been realized in advance. The real opportunities are in those ecological projects that can achieve breakthroughs through this direct connection. For example, quality DeFi projects on Cardano that were previously limited by insufficient user numbers may see a significant increase in locked-up and trading volumes once they can connect to Solana's massive user base; similarly, NFT projects on Solana can reach stable investors on Cardano through this direct connection, opening up new markets.
Here, I want to remind everyone not to blindly follow the trend in investing. First, observe the progress of technology implementation and do not easily trust 'verbal cooperation'; second, select quality projects and avoid those that only want to ride the wave; finally, control your positions, as the crypto market is always full of uncertainty, and even the best logic cannot justify going all in.
I have compiled a list of quality projects in the Cardano and Solana ecosystems, covering three tracks: DeFi, NFT, and gaming. Follow me and privately message me with 'direct connection opportunity' to get this list. In the future, I will also provide detailed analyses for each project and teach everyone how to identify quality projects and avoid risks.
