Kadena Price Increases 40% After Launching New Protocol and Listing on Major Exchange

During bull and bear markets, the mantra for crypto projects focused on long-term sustainability is “always building.”
Kadena (KDA) is a project that has earned its rewards from its forward-looking approach to growth despite weakness in the broader crypto market and its layer-by-layer proof-of-work (PoW) blockchain protocol. 1 has seen an opposite trend in its price in recent times.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the KDA price spiked 40% from a low of $5.94 in the early hours of March 11 to a high of $8.28 as its 24-hour trading volume surged 784% to $325 million. .

Three reasons for KDA’s recent price increase include new listings on Binance, the launch of the first decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Kadena network, and upcoming roadmap plans including the launch NFT standard and wrapped native tokens.

KDA’s biggest driver is the March 11 listing on Binance.
