His position rests on a factual observation: More than <strong>1.3 million users actively stake their ADA<\/strong>, while participation in DeFi protocols remains marginal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This asymmetry explains why <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-investing\/buy\/cardano\/\">Cardano&#8217;s<\/a> total value locked (TVL) caps at approximately <strong>$243.2 million<\/strong>, according to DeFiLlama, positioning the network only in <strong>26th place<\/strong>. Hoskinson calculates that if the engagement rate were equivalent between staking and DeFi, the TVL could range between <strong>$5 and $10 billion<\/strong>. This represents <strong>considerable untapped potential<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The founder insists: &#8220;<em>There isn&#8217;t a single person in the Cardano ecosystem that I blame for our DeFi situation.<\/em>&#8221; His analysis aims to understand behavioral mechanisms, not assign blame. This nuance distinguishes the analytical approach of a blockchain developer from media simplification that transforms observation into accusation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Crypto Media <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0zAw2CsZ7f\">https:\/\/t.co\/0zAw2CsZ7f<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Charles Hoskinson (@IOHK_Charles) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IOHK_Charles\/status\/1985416763102933130?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 3, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"participation-gap-between-governance-and-liquidity\">Participation Gap Between Governance and Liquidity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hoskinson deepens his diagnosis by emphasizing that Cardano has a <strong>solid user base<\/strong>, contradicting pessimistic estimates suggesting only <strong>10,000 to 50,000 active participants<\/strong>. The strong staking participation demonstrates community engagement and <strong>confidence in the Ouroboros consensus protocol<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenge lies in the barriers to entry for DeFi on Cardano. Several technical and ergonomic factors may explain this hesitancy: Slippage on decentralized <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-investing\/exchange\/best-cryptocurrency-exchange\/\">exchanges<\/a>, transaction fees, sometimes complex user experience, <strong>yields deemed insufficient<\/strong> compared to other chains, and an educational deficit regarding <strong>available DeFi opportunities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On-chain data confirms this concerning trend. The number of <strong>daily active addresses<\/strong> has fallen from over <strong>32,000 in mid-October<\/strong> to approximately <strong>24,000 in early November<\/strong>, signaling a slowdown in network activity. This decline in engagement occurs in a challenging <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/trading\/market-maker\/\">market<\/a> context, with the entire crypto sector losing <strong>4% over 24 hours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ada-facing-competition-what-future-for-the-defi-ecosystem\">ADA Facing Competition: What Future for the DeFi Ecosystem?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cardano&#8217;s low TVL starkly contrasts with its initial ambitions. Distributed across 60 protocols, this fragmented liquidity limits the network effect and makes DeFi applications less attractive. Traders naturally seek <strong>market depth<\/strong> and volume, two elements currently lacking on ADA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Competing platforms like <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-investing\/buy\/bitcoin\/\">Ethereum<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-investing\/buy\/solana\/\">Solana<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/learn\/crypto\/avalanche\/\">Avalanche<\/a> benefit from much more developed DeFi ecosystems, creating a <strong>virtuous circle of adoption<\/strong>. As TVL increases, applications become more efficient, attracting more users and capital. <strong>Cardano must reverse this dynamic to compete effectively.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/wBKBMbGq\/\" alt=\"Cardano (ADA) chart from TradingView, illustrating price evolution and key support and resistance levels, used to analyze market trend and technical dynamics of the asset.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>current correction of ADA price<\/strong> to <strong>$0.5417<\/strong> partially reflects these structural concerns. While the global market explains part of the bearish movement, Cardano&#8217;s relative underperformance compared to certain competitors suggests specific concerns. Investors closely monitor DeFi adoption metrics as <strong>leading indicators<\/strong> of the <strong>future relevance of the network<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/go-pionex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Join the best crypto trading bot platform!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>On the same topic:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/when-will-the-trump-token-reach-100\/\">When Will the TRUMP Token Reach $100?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/is-coinbase-launching-its-own-crypto-analyzing-base-airdrop-rumors\/\">Is Coinbase Launching Its Own Crypto?
