Reading Time: 3 minutes

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – May 18, 2021) – Graph Blockchain Inc. (CSE: GBLC) (OTC Pink: REGRF) (“Graph” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the cryptocurrency Cardano and the Company’s position in Cardano’s native token (“ADA”).

The Company is pleased to announce that ADA has set new all-time highs repeatedly since the Company’s first acquisition of ADA, on March 29, 2021. ADA has reached as high as US$2.33 last week and as one of the leading decentralized projects in the space Graph is confident that this trend is likely to continue. At that price, Graph had gain of almost 80% on it’s initial investment.

“We believe strongly in Cardano and its token, ADA, their developers and community. The Proof of Stake approach that Cardano has implemented is the future of the crypto ecosystem and solves a number of problems with Proof of Work consensus algorithms, including the environmental issues that have received so much attention as of late. Cardano will no doubt be a long-term contributor to the crypto space and this new all time high is well deserved. We are proud to have Cardano on the list of projects that we own and support,” said Paul Haber, CEO of Graph Blockchain.

ADA’s price appreciation is due to its impressive community support, rooted firmly in its core values aligning perfectly with the crypto community. These values range from Cardano’s focus on increasing social mobility in Africa to its dedication to decentralization and transparency. Demonstrated by Cardano’s becoming the most decentralized blockchain network in the world overtaking the total value staked in Polkadot, earlier this year. And Cardano’s recent partnership with the Ethiopian government create a blockchain-based system to track student performance in 3,500 Ethiopian schools designed to in part open higher education and employment opportunities for the 81% of Ethiopia’s population living in rural regions.1

As outlined in previous news releases Graph believes that in 2021 there is the potential for smart contract platforms to implement solutions to facilitate mass adoption on decentralized blockchains. Given the numerous advancements in the past year, including those mentioned above, it is obvious why Cardano is widely believed to be just the project to accomplish this goal.
