The Cardano blockchain also offers price stability and predictability in NFT creations and transfer. According to Cardano price prediction, the development of this bridge is the first step, and it will enable creators of NFTs to move their creation from the energy-consuming Ethereum to the energy-efficient Cardano platform. The blockchain engineering experts at IO Global and Bondly, who also developed the Cardano blockchain, have aimed to decrease the energy consumption in NFT transactions. The cross-chain bridge from Ethereum to Cardano will ensure this. The bridge might be ready for use by 2022.
To get a comparative value, consider this: if the energy consumption of Bitcoin and Ethereum is equivalent to that of Oman and Columbia, then the consumption of Cardano is just about what a family uses. With the price stability and predictability of Cardano, NFT creators can transfer or mint their creations with minimum risk of loss or volatility.
