Cardano at 8th place with a 3.6 billion market cap whereas Chainlink is at 12th place with 2.7 billion markets. So in the race between the two, which altcoin is going to hit $10 Billion Market Cap First? Read to know
https://coinpedia.org/news/cardano-vs-chainlink/these projects are completely different, while Chainlink is a protocol token on top of ETH platform, that is providing oracles for smart contracts, Cardano wants to be a competitor for the complete Ethereum scope of services, as smart contract platform
from my point of view, Cardano should be first to hit $10B, if any of these coins/tokens ever reach $10B valuation
Rightly said. Cardano aims to be an alternative for Ethereum while Chainlink aims to connect Cardano and Ethereum.
Both of these genre have tough competition. While Ethereum has emerged as clear leader in utility tokens and smart contracts, there's no popular solution for interchain compatibility. The hype on Chainlink is justified but the results would be based on how it performs.
Up until now, eth is hard to beat and not many projects are utilizing the cardano network.
Whereas, Chainlink as DeFi project has large potential to grow because of the current hype in the DeFi field.
But still, it depends on the developers of these projects how far they can provide continuous developments of their respective system.
They should not rely on its supporters alone, because they will only be there if they are seeing good progress of their platform.
