Cardano (ADA) remains heavily sold in early trading on Thursday morning, as the price of the cryptocurrency continues to fall and its losses continue to extend on a day-on-day basis since the start of the week. The price of ADA has lost 5.7% in the last 24 hours, and remains 10.8% below the $1.40 level at which it was rejected by support earlier today. (The cryptocurrency was also rejected by a further level below at around $1.30).
The Cardano cryptocurrency has been in the news lately. While some cryptocurrency enthusiasts have taken to it readily, others have been hesitant to embrace it. The main selling point of Cardano (ADA) is that it is a fully open source project that prides itself on decentralization, and it is also one of the first cryptocurrencies to leverage the so-called “smart contracts” technology. However, in spite of these accolades, Cardano looks like it is about to fall even further.
Summary of the situation
- The price of Cardano is expected to fall due to the dominance of the bears.
- The closest support is at $1.30.
- ADA meets resistance at $1.35 and a new high at $1.40.
After Cardano’s price climbed to the $1.40 mark, it failed to continue its upward trend and has been in a steady decline. Currently buyers defend the price at just under $1.30 per ounce, the downward pressure is strong and the price could fall further if the sell-off continues.

The top performers are Ripple’s XRP and BNB, which won 50.54% and 19.73% respectively. Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum posted gains of 14.81% and 24.89%, respectively.
