Why is Cardano so popular?
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I'm always researching smart contract chains, in particular ALGO, EOS, Polkadot and Cardano. I'm trying to figure out why Cardano is so vastly popular compared to other coins.</p> <p>For example, Cardano has a comparible market cap to Polkadot (DOT), but its subreddit has ~300k members vs Polkadots ~20k. It seems like they have almost equal market cap, and are at similar points in development (Cardano smart contracts vs Polkadot parachains). ADAs subreddit has about half of <a href="/r/ethereum">/r/ethereum</a> which has been around forever and dwarfs the other two in market cap.</p> <p>Not hating on ADA or DOT technology. I'm just trying to understand why one seemingly has an order of magnitude larger community when everything else seems roughly equal.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/ohThisUsername"> /u/ohThisUsername </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/mlemqo/why_is_cardano_so_popular/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/mlemqo/why_is_cardano_so_popular/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
