The tweet gathered the most recent negative events from each network, including Ethereum, Cardano, and Solana. But while the wealth manager highlighted functionality and performance issues on the two networks, Cardano’s critique was not of the fundamental issues of the network.
Alfred noted that Cardano’s market performance was far from being accepted by the cryptocurrency market standard, but the network keeps on growing, allowing developers to build scalable, cheap, and efficient decentralized solutions and applications.
