Algorand processed 4 million transactions on April 20, 2025, a 14.3% increase from last week, per Yahoo Finance updates, showcasing its energy-efficient proof-of-stake model. This surge, driven by fintech adoption and dApp growth, positions Algorand as a scalable rival, aligning with Bhutan’s green crypto push. The milestone suggests improved network capacity, but sustaining this volume without congestion remains a challenge, prompting cautious optimism.
Web skeptics argue that Algorand’s ecosystem lacks Ethereum’s diversity, potentially limiting its appeal despite the transaction spike. Analysts note potential partnerships could bridge this gap, but the absence of a strong DeFi presence is a hurdle. This gain strengthens Algorand’s 2025 standing, though long-term success depends on addressing scalability and adoption challenges.
