It is going to be a busy week for the Cardano ecosystem, with the Djed stablecoin and the Coti protocol both making their debut
Cardano, one of the most popular proof-of-stake projects, is on the cusp of a big week.Â
As reported by U.Today, Cardano-based decentralized exchanges (DEX) MinSwap and MuesliSwap as well as plenty of other decentralized finance apps will add support for the much-hyped Djed stablecoin Â

It remains to be seen whether Cardano (ADA) will react to the upcoming events. The cryptocurrency is currently trading at $0.39 on major spot exchanges, with its market cap sitting at $13.5 billion.Â
As reported by U.Today, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson recently commented that tons of decentralized applications were coming online.Â
