On Monday (May 3), “Coin Bureau” released a video on its YouTube channel that compared Ethereum and Cardano. The host told the channel’s 833K subscribers:

“From a percentage standpoint, ADA has seen much larger gains than ETH during this bull market so far. It’s up almost 40X since last spring…

“ADA has been consolidating since it hit $1.50 in mid-April this year and if the momentum of the market continues along with the drop in BTC dominance, ADA will be getting its second wind sometime soon…

“If everything goes smoothly with the rollout of Cardano smart contracts in the summer, I could see ADA spiking to $3 and possibly higher if Cardano’s other partnerships work out.“
