Fantom (FTM), a Дayer 1 blockchain platform that powers decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, reports a 4,200% increase in smart contracts deployment since February 2021. It notes that the number of deployed verified contracts rose from 111 recorded in February 2021 to 4,677 in February of this year, representing a 42x increment.
Smart contracts are written in Solidity and can function on Fantom as they do on Ethereum. A Fantom transaction containing the user's bytecode is delivered without naming any recipients to deploy a smart contract. The contract will be available to all Fantom network users after it has been deployed.
The Fantom Foundation recently announced its strategic collaboration with crypto exchange Poloniex. Poloniex will support the development of the Fantom ecosystem. In another positive development, users can now bridge funds to and from Fantom via cross-chain bridge Wormhole. With deposits and withdrawals of mainnet FTM, Crypto.com's 10 million customers, including U.S. residents, now have easy access to the Fantom ecosystem.
Price still unmoved
Amid the drop in prices, whales are using the opportunity to accumulate, as WhaleStats reports two large purchases of 2,000,000 FTM bought in recent hours by top ETH whales, or large holder addresses.
Fantom (FTM) fell in the prior week after developer exits weighed on investor confidence. Andre Cronje, the developer of Yearn. Finance announced that he was calling it quits together with developer Anton Nell while tweeting that they were "terminating" 25 projects.
The Fantom Foundation clarified this as miscommunication in a released statement. After a few days of decline, the FTM price rose in a relief rally to reach highs of $1.28 on March 16. At press time, FTM was attempting a rebound from intraday lows of $1.17. At the time of publication, FTM trades at $1.21 and ranks 41st largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, per CoinMarketCap.

Legendary quarterback Tom Brady wants to meet Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, according to his recent tweet.
Brady confessed that he was “a big fan” of the influential programmer.
The superstar footballer, who recently shocked the world with his sudden unretirement, thanked Buterin for his contribution to the cryptocurrency industry.
He notes that creating Autograph, his non-fungible token startup, would have been impossible without the Ethereum co-founder.
Brady’s words of praise were in response to a tweet, in which Buterin posted the screenshots of several insulting tweets that criticize his looks. The Ethereum co-founder made an appearance on the cover of the historic issue of Times Magazine, which rubbed some critics the wrong way.
Some Twitter users drew ludicrous comparisons between Buterin and Brady. One user noted that “dystopian” version of the popular footballer. Another one quipped that Buterin looks like if Brady did meth.

Buterin half-jokingly noted that he had no idea who Brady was despite the immense popularity of the legendary quarterback. He appeared to have mistaken the footballer for “Mission Impossible” actor Tom Cruise.
Brady’s tweet instantly went viral, generating almost 60,000 likes at the time of writing. Buterin thanked the footballer for his “kind support.”
Not everyone was pleased though. Some Twitter users slammed Brady for promoting “glorified Chuck E Cheese tokens.”
