in short term things are looking a little shaky, but I believe cardano can bounce back and has a bright future ahead for a few reasons:

1. ADA is big on private transactions as well as responding to the needs of regulators, which, in my opinion, makes ADA primed for mass adoption over time
2. ADA's network is backed by a scientific philosophy and has been built through peer-reviewed research by top of line engineers, so in other words the team behind ADA is very promising in my eyes

the overall framework is still in the early beginnings, so I think after some time, likely near 2019 ADA has the potential to scale the ladder

Cheers!!
