The long awaited Cardano’s Alonzo upgrade finally went live and brought the smart contracts to their blockchain, so developers can create decentralized apps (Dapps) and start entering in the world of DeFi (Decentralized Finance) and NFTs.

“This upgrade is the culmination of six years of incredibly hard work with some of the brightest minds in blockchain and beyond,” said Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano.

After reaching all time high in September of $3.03, it started to fall and go sideways in the month of October around 2$, and from November 10th it started a descending channel until recently when it finally had a breakout, and possibly began an ascending channel moving upwards, as referenced below:
