We have tools to "explore" the Cardano blockchain, which are useful when you know what you're looking for. We argue that there's a different, complementary use-case which is to "observe" the blockchain and react to particular event patterns.

Oura is a rust-native implementation of a pipeline that connects to the tip of a Cardano node through a combination of Ouroboros mini-protocol (using either a unix socket or tcp bearer), filters the events that match a particular pattern and then submits a succint, self-contained payload to pluggable observers called "sinks".

Check our documentation for detailed information on how to start working with Oura.

<li>Cardano surged 6%, briefly testing $1 as bullish market sentiment returned.</li>
<li>The Fed’s rate pause and ETF speculation are fueling ADA’s rally toward potential new highs.</li>
<li>A sustained move above $1 could set the stage for ADA to retest $1.20, while support at $0.88 remains crucial.</li>
</ul>
Cardano (ADA) climbed by 6% on Thursday, briefly touching the key psychological level of $1 as bullish sentiment swept across the crypto market. The rally came alongside broader market gains, driven by improving macroeconomic conditions and growing optimism around regulatory developments.
Bitcoin and Ethereum both posted moderate gains, rising above $105,000 and $3,250, respectively. Altcoins like Stellar (<a href="https://stellar.org/" target="_blank" title>XLM</a>), Chainlink (<a href="https://chain.link/" target="_blank" title>LINK</a>), and SUI followed suit, with Cardano riding the uptrend after a slow, discouraging start to the week.
On <a href="https://www.binance.com/en" target="_blank" title>Binance</a>, ADA prices reached as high as $0.96—representing a 12% jump in just 24 hours. This recovery snapped a string of four consecutive losing days and, if it closes above $0.90, could mark two green daily candles in a row for the first time since January 17.
The strong reversal suggests Cardano may have found a local bottom, with positive market sentiment supporting the case for a push above $1. If ADA can hold these levels, a retest of the $1.20 resistance may soon be in play.
<h3>Fed Policy and ETF Speculation Fuel Momentum</h3>
The U.S. <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/" target="_blank" title>Federal</a> Reserve’s latest announcement provided the spark that reignited crypto market momentum. On Wednesday, the Fed decided to keep interest rates steady, signaling a potential shift toward looser monetary policy in the coming months.
Lower rates are typically good for riskier assets like cryptocurrencies, as they promote greater liquidity in financial markets. The <a target="_blank" href="https://blocknews.com/ledger-breach-triggers-83-million-crypto-market-liquidation/" title="Ledger Breach Triggers $83 Million Crypto Market Liquidation">Fed’s</a> pause helped ease concerns about tighter conditions, encouraging investors to rotate capital back into high-growth sectors.
Following the announcement, buying volume surged for <a href="https://cardano.org/" target="_blank" title>Cardano</a>, propelling its price toward $1. Meanwhile, speculation around a possible Litecoin ETF is also driving optimism. Institutional interest could ramp up if such ETFs, including several already filed for ADA, gain approval.
As regulatory shifts and <a target="_blank" href="https://blocknews.com/hong-kong-eyes-bitcoin-for-national-financial-security/" title="Hong Kong Eyes Bitcoin for National Financial Security">macroeconomic</a> tailwinds gather steam, Thursday’s recovery positions ADA to benefit from these broader market forces.

<h3>ADA Price Forecast: Retesting $1.20?</h3>
<a target="_blank" href="https://blocknews.com/cardano-foundation-reports-478-million-in-assets-and-19-million-in-spending/" title="Cardano Foundation Reports $478 Million in Assets and $19 Million in Spending">Cardano’s</a> price action shows early signs of a bullish reversal, with technical indicators pointing toward a potential breakout above $1. The daily chart reveals a strong bullish engulfing candle, signaling renewed buying interest after a period of consolidation.
ADA has bounced off the lower Bollinger Band, indicating a likely move back toward the midline near $1. The upper band at $1.11 aligns with the next resistance <a target="_blank" href="https://blocknews.com/cardano-ada-is-poised-for-a-price-surge-targeting-7-80-in-2025/" title="Cardano ADA is Poised for a Price Surge: Targeting $7.80 in 2025">zone</a>, making it a key short-term target for bulls.
Momentum indicators like the MACD histogram are printing higher <a target="_blank" href="https://blocknews.com/cardanos-price-consolidation-a-pivotal-moment-for-ada/" title="Cardano’s Price Consolidation: A Pivotal Moment for ADA">lows</a>, suggesting weakening bearish momentum. Meanwhile, the signal line is flattening, hinting at a potential bullish crossover. Additionally, ADA is trading near the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), indicating a shift in control as buyers regain dominance.
A sustained close above $1 could open the door for a rally toward $1.20, the previous local high. On the downside, if ADA fails to maintain this momentum, it may retest support at $0.88, where renewed buyer interest is expected.

Cardano Rallies Toward $1 as Market Sentiment Shifts – BlockNews.com

Cardano is taking the next step in its governance journey by developing and implementing its first community-driven Constitution. Crafted with input from 1,400 contributors across 63 workshops in 50 countries, this Constitution represents the community vision and shared values, and confirms a key check and balance within Cardano’s governance model.

Cardano’s delegate-endorsed Constitution - now on-chain for DReps and the ICC to consider

<div>
 Cardano (ADA) is known for its methodical, research-driven approach to blockchain innovation. With latest Cardano news hinting at upgrades like the Hydra scaling solution and partnerships in decentralized governance. These developments have positioned Cardano as a powerhouse for long-term institutional adoption. 
However, while Cardano’s fundamentals remain robust, its measured growth trajectory pales in comparison to the explosive potential of meme coins like Panshibi ($SHIBI) in their early days. Here’s why smart traders are pivoting from Cardano to $SHIBI for parabolic gains.  
<h2 id="h-should-cardano-investors-expecting-5-diversify-into-shibi">Should Cardano Investors Expecting $5 Diversify Into $SHIBI?</h2>
While Cardano remains a cornerstone of crypto portfolios, its gradual growth often sidelines short-term traders. Just recently, Cardano news outlets <a href="https://everstake.one/blog/cardano-plomin-hard-fork-how-to-delegate-your-voting-power" target="_blank">reported an upcoming Plomin hard fork</a> which promises improved performance and functionality.
Reacting to Cardano news, ADA is currently trading at $0.9576, marking a 12.63% gain over the past month. While this rise is encouraging, Cardano’s prospects of reaching $5 by Q2 2025 could prove impossible. Cardano’s research-driven development has earned it a reputation for reliability. However, compared to meme coins like $SHIBI, the top altcoin’s measured pace may lack the excitement needed for rapid price surges.  
Analysts speculate that $SHIBI’s low entry price and meme appeal could trigger a 1000x surge upon exchange listings. With 55 days left in its presale and a 1000x potential, $SHIBI represents the kind of asymmetric bet that reshapes portfolios overnight.
<h2 id="h-panshibi-s-hyper-viral-model-promises-early-investors-1000x-returns-nbsp">Panshibi’s Hyper-Viral Model Promises Early Investors 1000x Returns  </h2>
Panshibi ($SHIBI) isn’t just another meme coin. It’s a strategic fusion of Asian crypto trends, panda-themed branding, and a rewards system designed to incentivize holding. Unlike Cardano’s multi-year roadmap, $SHIBI’s presale phase is engineered for immediate FOMO, with a 60-day window currently offering tokens at just $0.003 each.  
Panshibi stands as the unexpected champion which integrates DeFi capabilities and AI protocols with meme culture protocols into one powerful network. Recent months have shown that innovation and meme-driven enthusiasm could be the next major drivers of the top altcoins market. Panshibi stands out as a fresh force, combining the playful appeal of memes with a forward-thinking, community-centered model. 
Unlike its low-utility predecessors, Panshibi integrates Social-Fi, AI, and sustainability into an inclusive platform, redefining the potential of meme coins. The platform serves investors by setting out to transform the capabilities of meme coins. Investor potential became clear immediately as Panshibi managed to reach more than $40,000 in sales in its debut while offering tokens at $0.002. The presale period shows analyst projections of reaching 1,200% returns before the launch phase begins and analysts see greater gains after launch.
Panshibi’s multifaceted approach to its ICO shifts the narrative from speculation to purposeful engagement. Beyond the AI narrative, it is crafting a robust DeFi ecosystem around its native token, $SHIBI. Upcoming features like staking platforms, NFT collectibles, and charitable initiatives are designed to add lasting utility and value to the token.
Analytic reports show signs of a meme season resurgence which has $SHIBI positioned to outpace Cardano during this bull market surge. 
<h2 id="h-don-t-miss-the-meme-coin-wave-join-the-panshibi-presale-now">Don’t Miss the Meme Coin Wave; Join the Panshibi Presale Now!</h2>
$SHIBI has seen over $114,000 raised in just 5 days of its first token presale stage. Panshibi is already attracting Cardano whales seeking quick gains, mirroring Shiba Inu’s historic rally.
The token’s active 15-stage presale journey breaks market boundaries and positions Panshibi as an extremely promising altcoin investment. There are VIP perks afforded to early buyers that allow them gain access to exclusive perks. Investors are offered a rare opportunity to front-run a token primed for 250X returns. Don’t miss out!

Why Will Meme Coin Panshibi Show Better Gains Than Cardano in Opening Days?

The crypto space has been particularly tense in January as the market settles into 2025. Holders of Solana (SOL) and Algorand (ALGO) have been watching with bated breath as these assets posted losses on the weekly and daily timeframes. However, both have positive years behind them, having posted strong growth in 2024. So what do these projects have in store for 2025, and will they see a resurgence?<h2>Solana Price Prediction For 2025</h2>Solana (SOL) continues to be admired for its high level scalability, and this has only been improved upon in 2024 with the release of Solana’s new validator client, Firedancer. Solana’s transaction-processing power is now second-to-none, and this alternative validator client has also made Solana’s ecosystem more accessible to developers.&nbsp;Solana’s price has seen major movements lately, with a huge surge in the middle of January, as Solana teased the $300 mark, followed by a long tumble back down to $229. Solana (SOL) has lost 7% of its value in the last 7 days and holders are wondering when this corrective price action will come to an end. In terms of a&nbsp;Solana price prediction, analysts have varied perspectives. Some predict that if adoption increases, Solana (SOL) could reach $400 in the mid term, citing network upgrades and expanding use cases as key drivers. Conversely, others caution that unfavorable market conditions could lead to a dip to $150. Technical indicators suggest a bullish outlook for Solana in February.&nbsp;<h2>Algorand (ALGO): Recent Developments and Prospects</h2>Algorand remains popular with its emphasis on scalability, security and decentralization. Algorand announced a new staking rewards program recently, detailing plans for ‘block rewards' to be paid in real time to validators that successfully propose blocks to the Layer-1 blockchain. This follows a consensus mechanism upgrade which should boost Alogrand’s efficiency while making staking more inclusive and rewarding for all. Unfortunately these plans haven't translated to a sustained price hike, and Algorand (ALGO) has even dropped 8.8% in the last week.<h2>A Top Meme Coin Contender For 2025&nbsp;</h2>Amid the developments in Solana and Algorand,&nbsp;<a href="https://panshibi.com">Panshibi (SHIBI)</a> has emerged as a compelling alternative. Panshibi’s design takes inspiration from the panda, a cultural icon in Asia, as it sets out to combine meme culture with modern features.The project provides a high yield staking model with annual percentage yields up to 1,200%. This staking mechanism lets investors build their holdings over time and encourages early project adopters to remain invested long term.Panshibi is also drawing acclaim for its gamified social-fi ecosystem that lets token holders complete AI-driven quests and challenges to win rewards. This interactive approach fosters community engagement and provides holders with additional incentives beyond traditional investment returns.While Solana and Algorand continue to develop and expand their platforms, the emergence of Panshibi offers investors a novel opportunity in the meme coin space. Currently, in its fifth day, the&nbsp;<a href="https://panshibi.com">presale</a> has raised over $250,000, with tokens priced at $0.003,&nbsp; and analysts anticipating a steep&nbsp;1,200% price rise during the presale. For meme coin enthusiasts who want to ride the wave in 2025, Panshibi is not a project to sleep on.&nbsp;You can participate in the Panshibi presale here:&nbsp;Telegram:&nbsp;<a href="https://t.me/panshibi">https://t.me/panshibi</a>Twitter:&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/panshibi">https://x.com/panshibi</a>Website:&nbsp;<a href="https://panshibi.com/">https://panshibi.com</a>&nbsp;
