Cardano surges on whale accumulation and increased network activity

Cardano’s (ADA) network is gaining traction. Major participants have increased their ADA holdings and now control 6.71% of the total offerings. 

IntoTheBlock, a market analytics portal, said that Cardano whales—those with 100 million to 1 billion ADA—have added 11% more ADA in the past 30 days. These major investors control 6.71% of ADA supply.

In the immediate past, the Cardano network gained added traction, with daily addresses exceeding 30,000. Transactions have also increased, though not by much.

Recently, addresses have doubled, reaching 60,000. This has also affected the TVL on the network, indicating a greater inclination towards Cardano’s DeFi space.

Despite all of that, the NFT arena seems to be slightly lackluster.

The bottom price of Cardano NFT collections such as EarthNode, Book.io, and The Ape Society experienced a downward turn. This also included the volume of trade.

The inclination towards ADA remains encouraging, with its price rising by 8.11%. Cardano’s ADA can touch $1, but certain factors must be considered.  

Considering the market scenario, along with added acceptance and forthcoming enhancements such as the Vasil hard fork, it may have the capacity to further ADA. Cardano’s conventional currency has a trade value of $0.4678. 

ADA is in the tenth position for the biggest cryptocurrencies, with a market capitalization of $252.7 million. 

Despite a noticeable increase in big players connecting with Cardano and its DeFi space, the lack of traction around its NFTs could potentially upset the balance. It all seems to depend on Cardano’s ability to expand its acceptance across all sections of its Blockchain.
