Cardano reflects the previous bullish cycle
The analyst notes that whales and institutional players have positioned themselves for what is to come. Notably, the volume of large Cardano transactions on the network has exceeded $22 billion per day. He notes that these large transactions appear to be associated with high levels of accumulation. Whales holding $1 million to over $10 million in ADA have increased their positions by more than 100% in the past month.

If this pattern holds, he noted that ADA could target $6. He notes that a key support point for the bullish thesis is $0.80, where 48,000 addresses bought almost 1.20 billion ADA. It is currently trading at $0.9686, up more than 20% in the last 24 hours.
