Cardano Startup Index Launches on Blueshift, Showcasing Promising Projects in the Cardano Ecosystem

Mar 21, 2024

The Blueshift team are happy to announce the launch of the Cardano Startup Index, bringing together various startup projects on Cardano including TangleSwap, NEWM, and DACAU of the Djed Alliance. This comprehensive index enables users to track the price movements and performance of emerging startups within the Cardano ecosystem. Additionally, it empowers the Cardano community to participate in the index’s growth by holding a stake in it. 

Blueshift’s followers may recall that we already have the Cardano Index among our top-performing indexes. The distinction between the two is that while the Cardano Index includes established projects such as NMKR, VyFi, and Cornucopias, the Cardano Startup Index is created to showcase the most promising new projects in the Cardano landscape.

Learn More About the Projects

It was a true collaborative effort to bring the index to life from our and Cardano communities, from the Milkomeda and Blueshift teams, and, of course, from the featured projects that can now officially be seen listed in the Cardano Startup Index on app.blueshift.fi.

TangleSwap is a user-friendly DeFi protocol integrating seven applications across multiple chains. It tackles industry challenges like profitability and scalability, with a focus on security. Central to its offerings is an open-source DEX, complemented by a range of DeFi solutions Here is what TangleSwap thinks about joining the Cardano Startup Index:

The Djed Alliance is a collaborative and decentralized collective with a shared commitment to supporting the deployment and integration of the Djed stablecoin protocol across various blockchain ecosystems. As a true alliance, Djed sees our partnership going both ways:

Last but not least, NEWM brings its innovations into the music industry with a decentralized platform on Cardano blockchain. Artists control their work, earning fair compensation instantly. Fans engage directly, supporting artists through purchases and streams. Unique features like NFTs offer exclusive content ownership. NEWM fosters collaboration and community, reshaping music consumption and empowering artists and fans. This opens new ways for collaboration between Blueshift and NEWM, for example, through the creation of custom playlists on Blueshift!

Here is how NEWM feels about being shortlisted:
