Cardano’s having a great week. With network founder Charles Hoskinson teasing a reveal date for a huge coming upgrade, ADA prices have surged and the network has rapidly gained capital. In fact, its $65 billion market capitalization has boosted it past Tether (CCC:USDT-USD), into the spot of the fourth-largest cryptocurrency in the world.

Additionally, investors are becoming bullish because they know what to expect of the upgrade timeline. Cardano developers are sharing the release date for the Alonzo Purple upgrade through a video update. In it, they reveal that users can expect the full rollout of the upgrade on Sept. 12. Through the Alonzo Purple fork, Cardano users will be able to use smart contracts on the network. The big deal is that this removes the need for third parties to facilitate transactions.
