Specifically, the two major stablecoins have joined the Cardano network via the decentralized crypto exchange (DEX) WingRiders, according to the blockchain’s founder Charles Hoskinson who tweeted the announcement on April 12. To make this happen, WingRiders has enlisted the help of the Layer 2 Protocol on the mainnet, Milkomeda Foundation, stating on its Twitter page: Leveraging the Milkomeda Bridge sidechain and its Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), users will be able to trade USDT and USDC on Cardano for the first time, allowing them to benefit from the stablecoins’ touted role as the safe-haven asset against market volatility. Considering the success and popularity of the two stablecoins, the ecosystem’s supporters believe the recent events could lead to a hike in the on-chain activity and trade volume on the network, as well as an increase in the price of ADA itself.
