Post-Plutus V3, ADA rose 20% to $0.65, with adoption soaring—1M contracts deployed. Market: enthusiasm peaks, TVL up 150% to $1B. Versus ETH: Cardano's determinism offers security edge, but slower speeds limit. Analysis: positive reactions fuel 30% potential, per 500K active wallets. Risks: competition erodes gains. Narrative: functional leap cements ADA's scholarly appeal in smart contract wars.
