Ouroboros Leios and Scaling: The Cardano team has published the Cardano Improvement Proposal for Ouroboros Leios, a next-generation algorithm built to supercharge the network’s capacity. Early modeling suggests this upgrade could push Cardano to thousands of transactions per second. Such speed can help the blockchain take on Ethereum and other competitors while keeping fees low. If these goals are met, Cardano’s use cases could skyrocket, attracting new developers and projects to the ecosystem.
Cardano (ADA) has recently felt the chill of a crypto winter, yet hope for a summer in 2025 hasn’t dimmed. For the next 12 months, analysts foresee two paths emerging: a gradual ascent to the $1.10-$1.32 USD zone by September 2025.

The optimism links back to impressive tech updates and a wave of big-money interest in the asset, further fueling the narrative on crypto Twitter. Even with these bright spots, another heavyweight has stepped into the ring.

The next section assesses the strengths Little Pepe possesses that could surpass Cardano in the months ahead.
