Cardano’s native token, ADA, has climbed to its highest level in five months, rising over 6% in the past 24 hours as trading volumes surged overnight, buoyed by a wider rally across the crypto markets.
Analysts remain split over ADA’s short-term outlook. Some foresee a potential bullish reversal targeting prices between $0.70 and $0.72, while others highlight bearish signals from on-chain data, including declining active wallet numbers and notable outflows from exchanges.
Broader macroeconomic forces continue to play a significant role in shaping crypto sentiment. President Trump’s steadfast approach to tariffs has added to global economic uncertainty, leaving investors carefully tracking both technical indicators and geopolitical developments to determine whether ADA’s recent volatility signals a sustained recovery or just a brief rebound.
