The Cardano blockchain has been relatively quiet since the beginning of July, alongside an ADA price consolidation. As per on-chain transaction data, Cardano whales have also been relatively quiet since the last week of June. Daily whale inflows have steadied under 5 million ADA since the beginning of the month, save for a recent spike earlier in the week. Particularly, on-chain data from IntoTheBlock indicate a recent 1,218% spike in daily whale inflows, a development that may signal the start of an ADA price uptick. Cardano Sees 1,218% Spike In Major Metric According to the Large Holders Inflow from IntoTheBlock, the Cardano blockchain witnessed a 1,220% surge in whale inflow. As noted earlier, daily inflows into whale wallets have been on a decline since July 5. However, a surge in activity at the beginning of the week resulted in the number of inflows into whale addresses spiking from 14.51 million ADA on July 8 to 110.82 million ADA on July 9. This increase is more noticeable compared to the 2.83 million ADA recorded on July 7, which represents a 3815.9% increase in daily inflows over two days.

According to data from Coinmarketcap, there are currently 35.87 billion ADA tokens in circulation. Meaning each wallet being tracked by the metric has to possess at least 35.87 million ADA tokens before they can be classified as large holders or whales. According to the ADA holdings distribution, only 0.01% of the total Cardano addresses are within the range of those possessing 10 million to 100 million ADA tokens. However, they control a majority (36.26%) of the coins in circulation, which gives them a say in the overall price movement. Will ADA Price Follow? Whale activity doesn’t just affect prices directly; it can also sway overall market sentiment. When some of these big players make moves, it can either boost confidence or spread fear among other whales and retail investors.

A crypto analyst has uncovered a new technical pattern in the Cardano price movements, signaling the potential for a substantial rebound. Echoing this optimism, another analyst has affirmed that Cardano may have hit its bottom and could be on the verge of rebounding to $0.8. Analyst Declares Cardano’s Price Bottom In an X (formerly Twitter) post on June 29, Captain Faibik, a crypto analyst, shared insights on Cardano’s price action and future outlook. According to the analyst, Cardano’s native token, ADA, is forming a falling wedge pattern on the daily time frame chart. Related Reading: XRP Dominance: Pundit Says Missing This Altcoin Could Be A Big Mistake A falling wedge pattern is a unique technical formation that signals the end of a consolidation phase and the beginning of a potential reversal or continuation pattern. This falling wedge formation often indicates that a cryptocurrency has hit its bottom or swing low in a market, and is seen as a bullish indicator. Sharing a price chart of Cardano from September 2023 to August 2024, Faibik predicted that Cardano would be breaking out of its price correction soon. The analyst has foreseen a 72.84% surge from the cryptocurrency’s current price. As a result, Faibik has urged Cardano investors to keep an eye on this crucial area. Sharing a similar sentiment, another crypto analyst identified as ‘Zayk Charts’ on X has also unveiled the unique falling wedge pattern on Cardano’s chart. In his case, he foresees a substantial breakout between 40% to 50% for Cardano. Cardano Rebound Potential Tied To Crucial Level If Cardano breaks out of the falling wedge pattern, it could surge to nearly $0.8. A crypto analyst identified as ‘Crypto Feras has revealed a crucial support level that Cardano must maintain to secure its anticipated bullish rebound. In his price chart, Crypto Feras highlighted Cardano’s latest price actions, marking the critical support level at $0.4251 with a yellow box. The analyst warned that if Cardano fails to hold this level, it could experience another sharp decline, potentially pushing its current price to new lows at $0.24. Since the beginning of the year, the price of Cardano has been on a major downward trend, experiencing constant declines in both favorable market conditions and high volatility. While other altcoins like Solana and Ethereum have surged considerably, Cardano underperforms, consistently maintaining a price below $1.

With the Cardano Chang hard fork approaching, the cryptocurrency could be gearing up for a significant price turnaround.Numerous analysts are optimistic, pointing to the formation of the aforementioned falling wedge pattern as a strong bullish indicator. One analyst predicts that if Cardano breaks this pattern, its price could surge to between $0.46 to $0.81 before the year ends. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analysts have given varying opinions on the Cardano (ADA) future trajectory. One analyst predicts that the crypto token could enjoy an unprecedented price rally. On the other hand, another analyst holds a bearish view and predicts that Cardano could experience a significant price crash. Cardano To Enjoy A 12,000% Rally In a post on Tradingview, crypto analyst Fiery Trading raised the possibility of Cardano rising to as high as $40 and even higher. The analyst highlighted a parallel channel and noted that Cardano could reach the top of this channel in the coming bull run, which would cause the crypto token to rise to $40. Related Reading: SkyBridge Capital’s Scaramucci Says Bitcoin Will Reach $250,000 Is This US Presidential Candidate Wins Fiery Trading admitted that Cardano rising to $40 is not a “likely outcome” but claimed that the risk-reward ratio is worth the risk. He added that Cardano’s current price is the “entry of a lifetime” and advised crypto investors not to miss out on it. In another post, Fiery Trading again hammered on Cardano’s current price level as an entry of a lifetime. He claimed that this entry is a “no-brainer” as long as Cardano keeps trading within that channel. Meanwhile, the crypto analyst highlighted more conservative price targets, pointing out $25 as another price level Cardano could reach, while he mentioned $3 as a target for “more defensive traders.” ADA Could Drop To As Low As $0.24 Crypto analyst Swallow Premium gave a bearish outlook for ADA. He noted that the crypto token has finally broken the liquidity zone at around $0.40 and now risks dropping to as low as $0.24. The crypto analyst predicted that Cardano could drop to that price level within a week or two. However, crypto analyst Sebastian suggested that Cardano might not drop below its current price range. He stated that the dump was over and that Cardano and the broader crypto market should enjoy a bounce from their current price level. He noted that the magnitude of the bounce will determine whether or not there may be more downside for ADA. The crypto analyst further stated that the next move the market should look forward to is seeing higher lows and higher highs. He claimed that the next target for Cardano is $0.40 and that the crypto token needs to rise above it and stay there. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Enters Accumulation Zone Amid 493% In Shibarium Transaction Fees Crypto analyst Trend Rider also noted that there are “quite a few bounce signals” on Cardano’s daily chart. He stated that Bitcoin needs to stop bleeding for ADA to recover. Bitcoin’s recent drop below $60,000 contributed to the significant declines that altcoins like Cardano experienced. At the time of writing, Cardano is trading at around $0.38, up almost 4% in the last 24 hours according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
On-chain analytics platform Santiment has outlined a factor that could contribute to Cardano (ADA) and XRP enjoying further moves to the upside. Both tokens recorded relief pumps following the recent decline in the crypto market, but market traders believe this development is far from a bullish reversal. Heavy Trader Shorting Could Lead To Price Rises For Cardano And XRP Santiment claimed in an X (formerly Twitter) post that the heavy trader shorting which Cardano and XRP are currently seeing could be the “rocket fuel” for continued price rises for these crypto tokens. Santiment had also revealed that Cardano and XRP were among the most notable altcoins that are heavily shorted following their relief bounces. Related Reading: Ethereum Price To Hit $10,000, ‘Just The Way The Chips Have Fallen,’ Analyst Says Interestingly, they called this a “good sign” for the patient bulls, as they believe that liquidation of these short positions could effectively be the momentum that these crypto tokens need to rise higher. Cardano and XRP being named among the most shorted altcoins isn’t surprising, considering that they are the most underperforming coins this year among the top 50 crypto tokens by market cap. Cardano and XRP have also usually failed to enjoy significant relief pumps even when Bitcoin (BTC) and the broader crypto market enjoy a massive rebound. However, this time could be different, as Cardano and XRP have enjoyed a modest price recovery while some other altcoins lag. Data from Coinglass shows that Santiment’s theory could already be in play, seeing how the Cardano and XRP bears have suffered significant losses in the last 24 hours. Over $50,000 in Cardano short positions have been liquidated during this period, while not a single cent in Cardano long positions have been liquidated. Similarly, over $30,000 in XRP short positions have been liquidated while XRP longs were unaffected. A Major Move Might Be On The Horizon For XRP Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto recently predicted that XRP could enjoy a price pump of around 1,700% starting in July. He alluded to XRP’s quarterly hammer formation between April and June 2016 and July and September 2017 before the crypto token enjoyed a major pump. The crypto analyst stated that XRP could form this bullish pattern again but needed to close the 3-month candle above the range between $0.55 and $0.58 in 10 days. Related Reading: Dogecoin Weighted Sentiment Drops To 2024 Lows, What Does This Mean For Price? Egrag further claimed that if the hammer formation is similar to the one in 2016, the XRP could begin the projected 1,700% price rally in July, eventually sending the crypto token to $8. However, if the hammer formation is similar to the one in 2017, Egrag mentioned that XRP holders might have to wait another six months before the “epic” pump of around 5,500%, sending XRP’s price to $27.

In a recent episode of the Thinking Crypto podcast, Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, addressed the swirling rumors about a potential partnership with tech mogul Elon Musk. During the podcast, hosted by Tony Edwards, Hoskinson discussed various outreach efforts made to Musk’s companies, including offers of free work to combat bot issues on the platform formerly known as Twitter, now X. Hoskinson Denies Rumors Of A Partnership With Musk Hoskinson detailed several attempts by his team to connect with Musk’s companies, particularly X (formerly Twitter), where they proposed solutions to combat prevalent issues like fake accounts and bots. “We’ve reached out numerous times to try to engage with various people at X, even offering to do free work with verified tweets or other things just because it’s so bad right now with bots and these other things, and it’s just always silent,” Hoskinson lamented. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts Cardano Price Will Rally 370% To $2, Here’s The Timeline Despite these efforts, he confirmed that Musk has never discussed Cardano or any potential collaboration personally. “I even know Kimbal Musk and I’ve talked to him on several occasions […] never once has [Elon] mentioned Cardano or me or anything,” he added. The founder’s comments served to quash rumors that had suggested potential uses of Cardano’s technologies, like the Midnight sidechain, in Musk’s high-profile companies such as SpaceX or Tesla. The speculative excitement around such a high-caliber partnership had been a point of discussion among investors and enthusiasts, given Musk’s known interest in cryptocurrency and his impactful endorsements of Dogecoin. Despite sharing mutual friends and professional connections such as podcaster Lex Friedman, Hoskinson expressed confusion and a bit of melancholy over the lack of engagement from Musk. “We share mutual friendships so I don’t know why we haven’t been able to square that circle […] maybe he’s got some people in his social circle that don’t like me and so he’s got some intel that I’m a bad person to work with or maybe it’s just he wants to do his own thing,” Hoskinson speculated. Related Reading: Cardano (ADA) Headed For Reversal? Analyst Eyes $0.50 As Turning Point Addressing Musk’s enigmatic persona and unpredictable business moves, Hoskinson noted, “He’s a magical guy. So it’s really like a sphinx hard to understand his motivations and understand why he does what he does. Why does he have this bizarre fetish for Dogecoin? Is it that he owns 20% of the supply…don’t know with a guy like that that’s the magic of Elon Musk.” Cardano Bears Remain In Control The ADA price saw a decrease of 2.2% over the last 24 hours, a dip that coincides with a broader downtrend in the altcoin market. Trading volume for ADA decreased also significantly, falling 22% to $357 million over the same period. The ADA price has consistently traded below the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which has acted as a key resistance level since mid-March. While there was a brief period where ADA surpassed this threshold, it eventually faced strong resistance at the 200-day EMA and was unable to sustain its upward momentum. As such, the 20-day EMA, currently at $0.445, is a critical near-term resistance level. Surpassing this barrier could signal a potential shift in market sentiment, paving the way for a rally towards the 200-day EMA at $0.494. A decisive break above this longer-term EMA could firmly establish a bullish trend for ADA. Featured image from YouTube, chart from TradingView.com

Cardano is currently in a downtrend, continuing to show bearish tendencies as its price trends below $0.5. However, where many have seen an altcoin that does not have many prospects, crypto analyst FieryTrading believes that the digital asset is giving investors an opportunity to get in for cheap. Cardano Can Break Out Of Parallel Channel In an analysis on the TradingView website, crypto analyst FieryTrading alludes to Cardano’s ability to break out and go on a massive bull run. The analysis draws from a previous analysis where the analyst had pointed out that the Cardano price had entered a parallel channel. Related Reading: Here’s How This Ethereum Whale Made $16 Million From A Single Trade This parallel channel emerged with the last cycle’s top going into the current cycle top with a line drawn from the last cycle’s bottom when the lockdown had sent crypto prices crashing. Despite the crypto analyst first pointing out this parallel channel back in 2023, they believe that it continues to remain valid, especially as the price continues to rtend low. Back then, the crypto analyst had predicted that the ADA price, if it were to break out of this parallel channel, could rise as high as as $35. This bullish expectation continues with the most recent analysis, albeit with a price adjustment. In the Wednesday analysis, FieryTrading notes that There is still the possibility for the altcoin’s price to reach the top of the channel. In this case, the price would fully complete the move toward $30. However, the crypto analyst’s chart carries a $25 target, which would be a 5,600% rally from its current level. Source: TradingView.com ADA Bears Maintain Control Despite the bullish outlook maintained by the crypto analyst, Cardano has succumbed to the bears. The price has dropped as low as $0.44 in the last day, indicating a 1.38% decline. On a wider timeframe, the ADA price looks even worse, with an almost 28% drop in one month. Related Reading: Can Ethereum Reclaim $4,000? Fragile Fundamentals Threaten To Send ETH Crashing However, despite this trend, the analyst still believes that investing in Cardano right now is a risk worth taking. FieryTrading refers to it as “the entry of a lifetime” that could guarantee good returns. Moreover, the analyst gives it a R/R (risk/reward) ratio of 116, which is a good number. For now, the ADA price is still struggling to hold up in the market. This is not helped by the decline in market sentiment, leading to a nasty 22% drop in its daily trading volume, according to data from Coinmarketcap.

Cardano has recovered from its April lows and continues to maintain a strong momentum above $0.45. This has prompted expectations that the altcoin will go on a rally from here. However, not everyone shares this sentiment as one crypto analyst expects the price to crash further from here. Cardano Will Crash Back Below $0.45 In the latest video on his YouTube channel that revolved around Cardano’s future trajectory, crypto analyst, ‘More Crypto Online’, revealed why the ADA price is poised for more decline. The analyst pointed out that the altcoin is currently in its 3-wave corrective rally. Related Reading: Fantom Revival: Crypto Analyst Predicts A Jump To $1.2 For FTM Price Now, the Elliot Wave Theory which is being referred to by the crypto analyst consists of five waves. Out of the five, three are bullish and two are bearish. The bullish waves involve the 1, 3, and 5, with 2 and 4 being bearish waves. If the analyst is correct and the Cardano price has only completed three waves so far, that means the fourth wave, which is a bearish wave, is yet to be established. As a result, the crypto analyst believes that the Cardano price will further break down as it enters the fourth wave. He further pointed out that the altcoin’s price had fallen below the $0.48 support, which was an important level for it. This, coupled with the fact that it is yet to enter the fourth wave, has the analyst convinced that the price crash is far from over. As for where the ADA price might end up in this fourth wave, the crypto analyst believes it will go as low as $0.42 before recovering again. However, the good news is that once the fourth wave is completed, it gives way for the fifth wave to begin, which is the most bullish of all the waves and could see the ADA price barrel past $1. ADA Metrics Still Bullish Despite the bearish outlook presented by the crypto analyst, major Cardano metrics continue to show bullish divergence. For example, the daily trading volume of the altcoin has risen almost 17% in the last day to cross $286 million, data from CoinMarketCap shows. Related Reading: Why Did The Solana (SOL) Price Jump Today? This drastic rise in daily trading volume suggests a return of interest in the altcoin and this could quickly translate to a bullish trend, especially in the short term. Additionally, the fact that the price is on the rise at this time suggests that the majority of the transactions as a result of this renewed interest is from buyers rather than sellers. This suggests that the price will continue to rise if this demand is sustained. At the time of writing, ADA is still sitting firmly above $0.45, with a 1.78% increase in the last day.

Crypto prediction website Telegaon has provided insights into when Cardano (ADA) will hit $45. A rise to that price level represents an 8.900% price gain from its current price level, which will appeal to ADA holders, especially given the crypto token’s recent unimpressive price action. When Cardano Will Rise To $45 Telegaon predicted in a blog post that Cardano will reach $45 by 2050. They highlighted $45.87 as the maximum price the crypto token will likely attain that year. Meanwhile, $39.12 and $42.41 are predicted to be ADA’s minimum and average prices that year. The prediction site claims that Cardano’s parabolic rise will occur due to several factors. Source: Telegaon These factors include “trading volume, market trends, investor sentiment, technological developments, and external influences.” It is worth noting that the Cardano has performed incredibly well in terms of technological advancements as the network has continued to rank among the top blockchains by development activity. This factor is expected to play a massive role in Cardano’s attainment of this price prediction, especially considering that the crypto projects likely to survive until 2050 are the ones that can adapt and progress with the times. Cardano has shown such quality, seeing how the team has continued to build actively, especially with the implementation of the network’s smart contract functionality. Meanwhile, Telegaon also outlined its price predictions for Cardano in the years leading up to 2050. In the short term, they do not seem bullish on Cardano as they predict that the highest price the crypto token could rise to this year is $2.15. Based on their prediction, Cardano will likely surpass its all-time high (ATH) of $3.10 in 2025, as they predict that $3.14 is the maximum price the crypto token will hit next year. More Bullish Price Predictions For ADA This Year Last year, Dan Gambardello, the founder of Crypto Capital Venture, suggested that Cardano could rise to as high as $11 this year. Specifically, he mentioned that the crypto token will rise to this level when the bull run returns after the Bitcoin halving. With the halving already taking place, Cardano could be primed for such a run. Crypto expert Jason Appleton made a more bullish prediction, stating that Cardano would rise to $32 in this bull market. Appleton added that this price level is attainable in the “most prime of conditions by the peak of this bull market cycle.” The crypto expert claimed that this parabolic rise would make Cardano one of the most valuable altcoins during this cycle. At the time of writing, Cardano is trading at around $0.44, up over 4% in the last 24 hours according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Cardano suffered a massive price crash over the last two weeks. However, with the market recovery, the ADA price has begun to see some positive headwinds. Analysts expect this recovery to continue, with one crypto analyst in particular, who goes by CobraVanguard, expecting a bullish continuation toward $1. Cardano Completes The ABC Wave The crypto market crash, led by Bitcoin, saw the prices of Cardano and other altcoins plunge into a dreaded ABC wave. This wave is notorious for causing massive dips to the tune of 50%, leaving investors in losses in its wake. Related Reading: Ethereum Enters Accumulation Phase As $500 Million ETH Leave Exchanges The crypto analyst revealed that Wave A had taken place when Cardano had fallen from $0.8 to $0.57, and then Wave B saw the recovery from $0.57 to $0.68. The third and final wave, Wave C, saw the price crash from $0.77 to $0.4 before bouncing upward once again, signaling the completion of the ABC wave. As with all other crashes, there comes a time when the ABC wave is over, and the price of an altcoin can recover, and it seems Cardano has entered this range. The price of the altcoin has since recovered above $0.5, with the bulls now taking control. From here, the analyst expects the recovery to continue and rally with a new wave. “After the fifth bullish wave, Cardano has completed his corrective waves (ABC) and now he has reached the end of the wedge, now it is time to start the five bullish waves,” CobraVanguard said. Source: Tradingview.com ADA Price Targets CobraVanguard outlines a number of reasons why they believe that the Cardano price is going to be bullish. Firstly, they outline an ascending structure of the chart, which suggests a bullish continuation. Next is the bullish wedge that is forming in the chart. Also, high-potential areas are becoming clearer in the chart, as the analyst outlined. Related Reading: Battle For The Halving Block: Bitcoin Users Spend Record $2.4 Million On Block 840,000 In the first wave, the analyst outlines a possible jump to $0.77. From here, they expect that the price will retrace a bit to $0.64 before resuming the uptrend. However, the analyst takes a more conservative stance compared to other analysts about the top, putting it somewhere around $1.09. The analyst further pointed out that in a situation where the wedge were to break down, it could invalidate this, and possibility lead to a decline in price. “Note that if the WEDGE is broken down with the power of descending candles, our analysis will fail,” CobraVanguard concluded.

Cardano (ADA) is again in the spotlight as crypto analysts continue to deliberate on its future trajectory. This time, crypto analyst Alan Santana has laid out a bearish narrative for the crypto token, which could cause its price to drop drastically. How ADA Could Crash To $0.34 In his analysis, Santana stated that ADA’s breakout below the $0.58 price level, which has acted as support for the crypto token for five weeks, signals a bearish sentiment toward it. In line with this, he suggested that ADA’s price could further dip significantly even though it has already experienced a 30% decline from its recent price peak. Related Reading: Fantom Supply On Exchanges See Drastic Increase, A Cause For Alarm? The crypto analyst mentioned that a further price dip for ADA could cause its price to drop between $0.4444 and $0.3450. However, this isn’t necessarily bad for the crypto token as Santana revealed that altcoins, which have in the past seen a 2x to 3x increase in their prices, experienced corrections of such magnitude before then. He added that before the end of their correction, all these altcoins moved to test a price range between 0.618 and 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level. From the chart he shared, one can see that the analyst stipulated that ADA could drop to as low as $0.34 because that is the price level for the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level. Source: Tradingview.com Furthermore, Santana acknowledged that ADA could move higher from its current price level but seemed skeptical because the crypto token has continued to lag, making further price declines more feasible. He also revealed that ADA’s weekly chart is producing a “break below the EMA10 (Exponential Moving Average) with a very strong bearish candle as the RSI (Relative Strength Index) turns red. “Once support is found and established, we become bullish again,” the analyst concluded. Cardano Founder Is Bullish On ADA Cardano’s founder, Charles Hoskinson, sounded bullish on the Cardano ecosystem in a recent X (formerly Twitter) post, stating that “Cardano always wins.” Hoskinson’s statement came in response to a poll to rank the best Layer-1 network. Hoskinson suggested that the poll was already biased and that Cardano would surely come out on top if it were a “fair vote.” Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Says Bitcoin Hitting $100,000 In 2024 Is Inevitable, Here’s Why Meanwhile, this occurrence again highlights Hoskinson’s confidence in the Cardano network he founded. He once even compared the network to Bitcoin, noting how it was growing organically like the flagship blockchain. At different times, he also insinuated that Cardano has real network value, unlike networks like Solana. However, so far, Cardano’s network value has failed to positively affect ADA’s price, which is undoubtedly a cause for concern among ADA holders. At the time of writing, ADA is trading at around $0.56, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

A plausible explanation has emerged for why the Cardano (ADA) price has dropped below the psychological price level of $0.7. The crypto token saw a sharp correction from its monthly peak of $0.8, recorded on March 14, and has since failed to recover such a height. Cardano Whales Responsible For Price Decline Data from the crypto analytics platform Santiment shows that the whale transaction count ($100,000 and above) on the network has reduced since March 14. That period was when Cardano hit a high of $0.8, which suggests that ADA whales began to take profits from then and have slowly exited their positions since then. Related Reading: Bitcoin Held On Coinbase Exchange Reach 9-Year Low, Can Bitcoin Reach $75,000? Crypto whales are known to have a massive impact on the market, and prices usually drop as soon as these traders begin to offload their holdings. Moreover, this wave of profit-taking isn’t peculiar only to the ADA ecosystem; these past few weeks have been marred by investors taking profits from different crypto tokens in which they were invested. The flagship crypto, Bitcoin, was also not spared. Investors decided to take profits after weeks of seeing BTC make a parabolic run on its way to a new all-time high (ATH) of $73,750. Meanwhile, long-term ADA holders also looked to have used the opportunity to take some profits, as data from Santiment shows that a considerable amount of dormant ADA tokens were also transacted during that period. Specifically, March 20 was a busy day for these long-term holders as 200 million ADA tokens (which had been dormant for a year) moved on that day. Time For ADA To Run To $1 Like the broader crypto market, Cardano looks to be recovering from this recent wave of profit-taking, although at a slower pace. For its next leg up, there is the belief that the crypto token could finally break the $1 resistance. Crypto analyst Dan Gambardello recently predicted that ADA could rise to between $1.4 and $1.5 if it can break out from the $0.8 price range. Related Reading: Ripple CEO Responds To SEC’s Shocking $2 Billion Demand ADA whales are likely to soon return to the fold with whale transctions higher than $100,00 expected to pick up soon enough. A spike in these trasaction count would suggest that these investors are taking advantage of ADA’s current decline to accumulate more of the crypto token. That is something that could contribute to a rise in ADA’s price depending on how bullish these investors are on ADA going forward. At the time of writing, ADA is trading at around $0.6513, down almost 4% in the last 24 hours according to data from CoinMarketCap.
