- Cardano surges 11% in 24 hours, reaching $0.93 and marking a 176% gain since Nov. 5.
- Rising funding rates and liquidations highlight strong demand for ADA long positions.
- Technical indicators suggest $1.20 as the next potential milestone for ADA bulls.
Cardano’s ADA token has reached a 2.5-year high, trading at $0.93 on November 22 after an 11% daily increase. This rally adds to a 176% surge in its price since November 5, reflecting renewed investor confidence in the layer-1 blockchain.
Broader Crypto Market Gains Bolster ADA
Cardano’s growth comes as the cryptocurrency market rallies, led by Bitcoin, which reached an all-time high of $99,502. Ethereum also saw gains, trading above $3,330, while Solana and XRP showed strong upward movements. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization now stands at $3.28 trillion.
Analysts attribute this bullish sentiment to expectations of a more favorable regulatory environment under President-elect Donald Trump’s administration. Trump’s promises to remove Gary Gensler from his role as SEC Chair have further fueled optimism among crypto investors.
