30X Gains Incoming for Cardano’s ADA; Is $1 Back on the Cards?
The post 30X Gains Incoming for Cardano’s ADA; Is $1 Back on the Cards? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
The cryptocurrency market recently saw a major drop, with the total market cap falling by over four percent to around $2.5 trillion. The spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a 3.65% drop, with significant outflows contributing to the market decline. Data showed that long traders, betting on the crypto market’s upside, faced over $400 million worth of liquidations in the past 24 hours, further accelerating the downturn.
Keeping the current market sentiment in mind, analyst Altcoin Buzz questioned if altcoins would face another major drop this month. However, he had a bullish stance for one particular altcoin. The analyst discussed the potential for Cardano’s ADA to reach $1 or more in the near future.
Initially skeptical, he noted that recent updates from Cardano’s founder, Charles Hoskinson, have made him more optimistic. Hoskinson announced the upcoming Chang Fork, a significant upgrade that will bring Cardano into the Voltaire era with decentralized governance.
Cardano had recently fallen out of the top 10 crypto projects by market cap. Despite hitting an all-time high of $3.09 in September 2021, ADA has been on a steady decline. The upcoming Chang Fork, expected to bring decentralized governance, could be a game-changer.
However, the initial announcement didn’t move ADA’s price. The broader market’s negative sentiment and stiff competition from other blockchain projects like Ethereum, BNB, Solana, and others are also factors to consider. While some predictions are encouraging, suggesting ADA could reach $2 or even $5.50, the reality appears more challenging.
A break above 50 cents might be possible with increased user adoption and community support. Historical context, such as the 2021 Alonzo hard fork, which saw ADA surge 30x, offers some hope, but whether the Chang Fork can replicate this success remains to be seen.
