Cardano‘s native token, ADA, jumped 24% on Friday to a close of $0.98 on a surge of increased network activity and investors’ interest. A move of this nature presents several broad bull sentiments in the crypto market, and ADA appears poised for long-term growth in that regard. (Read About AI prediction about XRP)
Elevated On-Chain Activity Boosts Confidence
ADA weekly active addresses broke above 350,000 for the first time since mid-2023 and have now maintained those levels, thus showing increasing network utility above whale transactions. That means price action is solely driven by real usage in the physical world and supported by both retail and institutional activity.
Such a key metric as Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) soared to 75%, its first reading since the 2021 bull market. This is a decent profit level for ADA holders, but it could cause short-term volatility through some profit-taking. But realized profits over the last two days of more than $200 million places figures on the still relatively modest scale of past rallies, constantly insinuating optimism.
Futures Market and Technical Indicators Favor Growth
ADA’s open interest in futures contracts rose to a three-year high of $725.83 million, hence further showing the growing confidence of the derivative traders. Spot exchange volumes are also up, and net flows are showing that pressure is still on to buy.
Technically, ADA has broken various key resistance levels and may re-target $1.26 if the momentum is indeed sustained. Indicators like the Awesome Oscillator were indicating rising bullish momentum, but an overbought RSI at 80 or more certainly warrants caution for possible corrections.
Market Outlook and Potential Catalysts
Their total market capitalization is now nearing $30 billion and ranks highly in cryptocurrencies. Continued development of the Cardano ecosystem and the general banter of a possible partnership, which included reports having Charles Hoskinson involved, further fired up the excitement.
While short-term fluctuations are quite in the cards, strong fundamentals and market dynamics point the way for ADA, promising to continue its upward trend. The investors need to keep a close watch on the events as Cardano approaches surpassing $1 weeks ahead.
