Three catalysts likely driving Cardano price rally
On-chain metrics daily address activity, trade volume, accumulation by large wallet investors and the rising social dominance of Cardano have painted a bullish picture for ADA price. An increase in daily address activity and trade volume signals an increase in adoption and utility of the asset among holders.
Typically, a spike in these metrics is associated with an upcoming rally in the price.
Daily active addresses in ADA, Volume vs price
Data from crypto intelligence tracker Santiment reveals that spikes in daily active addresses is associated with a rally in ADA, as seen on three previous instances. In week 2, 3 and 4 of June, rising address activity was followed by an increase in Cardano price. If the trend repeats itself, ADA price is likely to rally in the short term.
Moreover, whale accumulation, considered a typical indicator of an upcoming rally in an asset, picked up pace in ADA. Whales holding between 1 million and 10 million ADA tokens have scooped up more Cardano tokens between July 2 and 4, as seen in the chart below.
Whale wallet holdings vs ADA price
Social dominance, a metric that tracks the mentions of an asset across social media platforms like Twitter, is associated with recoveries in crypto prices. ADA social dominance climbed consistently, between July 2 and 4, and the rise in the metric is followed by an uptick in price as seen in the chart below.
Social dominance vs ADA price
Furthermore, Tether reserves on exchanges have hit an all-time high, and this is another likely contributor of recovery in assets that have suffered a decline in June 2023.
Stablecoin exchange reserves dominance
After the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) crackdown on crypto, ADA price suffered a steep decline. ADA price bled 30% from $0.37 to $0.26, between June 5 and 15, in a ten-day timeframe of the SEC crackdown on crypto.
Tether’s infusion of liquidity in the crypto ecosystem could drive a recovery in ADA price by absorbing selling pressure on the altcoin and representing demand for altcoins like Cardano.
