Is Cardano Doomed? Market Expert Predictions Spark Debate!

In a recent twist, market expert Benjamin Cowen mockingly responded to doubters of his Cardano (ADA) predictions. Cowen, the founder of ITC Crypto, reacted to an old tweet from over a year ago by a Cardano supporter who dismissed his analysis of the ADA/BTC pairing. On Monday, Cowen tweeted, “I wonder if they still want a comment,” referencing the post that had called him out for forecasting Cardano’s decline against Bitcoin.

Cowen’s Prediction on Cardano Comes True

The Cardano debate began when a Cardano pool operator mocked Cowen’s projection that ADA would drop to 400 SATs (0.000004 BTC). Cowen initially shared this prediction on Altcoin Daily in August 2023, asserting that Bitcoin’s rising dominance would drive a major correction for Cardano. He then restated his confidence in ADA’s decline during a YouTube video in November, doubling down on his analysis of the ADA/BTC trading pair. Despite widespread backlash from Cardano supporters, Cowen held firm in his outlook, even as critics turned to disparaging language. At the time, ADA/BTC traded at 0.00001020, while Bitcoin and Cardano were valued at $37,382 and $0.382, respectively. Now, ADA/BTC trades at 490 SATs (0.0000049 BTC), aligning closely with Cowen’s prediction.

With his analysis nearing full accuracy, Cowen took to X (formerly Twitter) to respond to those who questioned his stance. One critic, who had sarcastically demanded his comments when ADA briefly rallied against Bitcoin, found Cowen returning the favor, suggesting they reconsider his analysis.

The Road Ahead for Cardano

Cardano currently struggles under significant selling pressure amid a broader market correction. Over the past week, ADA dropped 10.29% and fell 16.73% month-over-month, trading at $0.3323 at the time of this writing. Although positive developments like Emurgo’s recent $1.3 trillion liquidity unlock with BitcoinOS and Cardano’s transition to decentralized governance sparked optimism, they failed to bolster Cardano’s price.

Analysts now offer mixed perspectives on ADA’s future. Analyst Alikze suggests ADA might soon reach $0.55, pointing to an ascending triangle and wave-three structure forming in its favor. In contrast, a TradingView analyst warns of a potential decline to $0.22 if ADA loses its key support at $0.33. Currently trading at this support level, ADA’s future hinges on its ability to maintain or break through this critical price point.
