After Mary's hard fork, Cardano will become a decentralized multi-asset smart contract platform in a few days, which means the update should bring Cardano closer to implementation by providing a wide range of use cases such as non-fungible tokens (NFT), stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi). Perhaps after a while we will see Cardano in second place in terms of CMC.
so we heard. well, it's just like any other platform though. can't say the difference except from what they claimed to be the most decentralized and have solved the problem of ETH which is the selling point of this project. this is an early stage of ADA which is why it has plenty of room for price growth. $1 or $2 could even be just the start of the spike until we see the realization of the smart contract and the defi projects under its wings.
