While many cryptocurrency traders were paying attention to news out of Washington today, a new crypto was making a mark.
The Cartesi Token shot up 103% yesterday before correcting, and although previously unknown to many, it is suddenly demanding attention.
Cartesi appeals to developers specifically because it allows developers to code smart contracts using the Linux system, which offers a wide range of mainstream software programs. This means that its offerings make available an exciting new future for decentralized applications (DApps).

Currently, Cartesi offers three different products which are designed to help it fulfill its goals.
These products include Descartes, Descartes Rollups, and Noether.
Descartes allows developers to complete heavy computations using Linux, while its Descartes Rollup feature is meant to be a smart contract improvement of Ethereum’s blockchain platform.
Finally, the Noether program allows DApps to move and store files for lower fee costs temporarily.
The native currency of the Cartesi platform is the CTSI token, and stakers receive CTSI rewards through their participation in the network.
The price of CTSI at the time of writing was US$0.83. The price has shot up approximately 75% in the past 24 hours.
Cartesi has a current market cap of US$317,122,584 and a circulating supply of 391,268,915 coins with a max supply of 1,391,268,915 coins.
