The Marshall Islands central bank is using the platform of Algorand to as three basis for its own digital currency SOV (Sovereign).

In mid, 2019 Algorand hit its all-time high with just over $2.16. In two weeks, the price of ALGO fell to $0.5 Since then it recovered slightly, however, it fell again. During April-May 2021, the crypto market was up and the cryptocurrencies were trading with boom. The one coin that couldn’t really make it even then was ALGO. It hit only $1.70. In September of the same year, it hit $2, but in January 2022 it was back under $1. Since then ALGO’s price has never gone beyond $1.
