With Shelley\u2019s incentivized testnet, the company will analyze how game theory and rewards are perceived by the users of the network.<\/p>\n<p>Upon completion, Shelley is planned to be incorporated into Mainnet in multiple phases, which will pave the way for solving the centralization and proof-of-stake problem that the network currently faces. The goal is to make the ADA\u2019s blockchain 250x more decentralized than other protocols, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/charles-hoskinson\">Charles Hoskinson<\/a>, founder of Cardano.<\/p>\n<p>As Cardano takes a significant step for a more decentralized, censorless, and trustless protocol, the company behind it, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/input-output-iohk\/\">Input-Output Hong Kong<\/a> (IOHK), is shifting its focus towards the real-world uses of blockchain technology.<\/p>\n<p>In a blog post, IOHK <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/cardano-shares-details-of-its-partnership-with-new-balance-to-solve-authenticity-on-the-blockchain\/\">disclosed<\/a> details about a partnership with sneaker giant New Balance Athletic Inc. Both companies are collaborating to develop the \u201cNew Balance Realchain.\u201d This will be an authentication system that aims to protect the authenticity of its collector\u2019s edition shoes. The project will enable its users to easily access data that confirms whether a certain product is authentic.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBringing blockchain technology to global brands and mainstream retailers is a big step for decentralized technologies,\u201d the company said in its blog post.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite the positive news surrounding ADA and the upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IOHK_Charles\/status\/1185285399519776768\">release<\/a> of Cardano Wallet 1.7, its price has been consolidating for more than a month without clear signs of a breakout.<\/p>\n<h2>ADA technical analysis<\/h2>\n<p>On Sept. 24, Cardano plunged nearly 24 percent from a high of $0.047 to a low of $0.035. Since then, this cryptocurrency has been consolidating mostly between $0.037 and $0.043.<\/p>\n<p>When looking at its 1-day chart, the Bollinger bands appear to be squeezing. Squeezes are indicative of periods of low volatility and are typically succeeded by periods of high volatility. The longer the squeeze the higher the probability of a strong breakout that defines the direction of the trend.<\/p>\n<p>Even though this technical index does not necessarily specify whether ADA will move up or down, the lower and upper band could be used to estimate where it is heading next. Thus, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/cardano\/\">ADA<\/a>\u2019s next major price swing will depend on its ability to trade outside of the trading range between $0.037 and $0.043.<\/p>\n<p>Breaking below support could take it to $0.033 or $0.028. Meanwhile, surging above resistance will likely let it test the next price hurdles at $0.048 and $0.055.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1039px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/C80rAtVU\/\" alt=\"ADA US price chart\" width=\"1039\" height=\"603\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/ADAUSD\/\">ADA\/USD<\/a> by TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Overall sentiment<\/h2>\n<p>Cardano is moving forward as it makes huge upgrades to its protocol that plans to make it more decentralized.
