Cardano whales strike: Will the ADA price jump above one dollar?
- Cardano is rapidly approaching the dollar mark again. In the past 24 hours, the ADA price has gained over eight percent, currently missing a good eight cents.
- In addition to a general upward trend, fueled by yesterday's speech by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, large investors, known as whales, recently also caused a small ADA rally with strong follow-up purchases.
- As market analyst Ali Charts announced in a tweet on X on Friday, ADA whales accumulated 180 million ADA tokens in the previous 48 hours, equivalent to approximately $160 million.
- In addition, the prospect of a Cardano spot ETF in the US has recently led to increased demand. Crypto asset manager Grayscale recently registered a “Cardano Trust ETF” in Delaware, which is seen as preparation for a spot ETF. Immediately following the announcement, the probability of a Cardano ETF launch this year rose to 80 percent on the betting platform Polymarket.
- Given the highly successful Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, through which billions of dollars are flowing into cryptocurrencies, ADA whales appear to be speculating on massive price increases in advance.
- The new OpenAI model ChatGPT-5 at least dampens this expectation. The AI provides a rather modest price forecast for Cardano. Read more here: How high the ADA price will rise, according to ChatGPT-5.
