Cardano’s ADA token is making headlines with a sharp rally, climbing over 12% in a single day to reach $0.83, and registering a remarkable 54% gain over the past week.
This impressive performance is largely attributed to a surge in whale accumulation and growing DeFi activity on the blockchain. Investors are now speculating whether ADA might soon reach the significant $1.00 milestone.
Analyst Ali Martinez has highlighted a 145% increase in holdings among wallets containing over $10 million worth of ADA over the last month, signaling heightened confidence in the token. Additionally, the blockchain’s Total Value Locked (TVL) has risen to $479.8 million, approaching its all-time high as Cardano’s decentralized finance ecosystem gains traction.
Activity across decentralized exchanges, lending platforms, and other protocols within the Cardano network has also contributed to this momentum, showcasing the blockchain’s expanding utility and adoption. These bullish on-chain metrics suggest that ADA’s rally may have further room to grow.
Meanwhile, analytics firm Santiment notes that ADA is diverging from other altcoins, reaching an 8-month high against Bitcoin.
Transaction volumes and whale activity have hit levels not seen since June, a period that preceded a significant surge in the ADA-to-BTC ratio. With this rising momentum, some believe ADA could be setting the stage for even greater price movements in the future.
