Bloody Monday: Cardano Not Spared From Bloodbath, Suffers 30% Loss

As a seasoned crypto investor with a decade-long journey through the rollercoaster of digital assets, I can’t help but feel a familiar sense of deja vu as I watch Cardano plummeting in value yet again. The market’s volatility is not new to me; it’s like an old friend who shows up uninvited, always bringing both excitement and disappointment.


In the tumultuous world of cryptocurrencies today, Cardano has experienced significant losses, with its token decreasing by approximately 30% in value over the past week. The overall market downturn and subsequent crash seem to have contributed significantly to this subpar performance.

Over the last day, the market has experienced a significant drop, with the total value decreasing by more than 13%. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum, the leading cryptocurrencies, have seen their prices fall by approximately 24% for Bitcoin and 31% for Ethereum since last week. This decline underscores the market’s sensitivity to growing economic concerns in the private equity sector.

Cardano Remains Great… Back In July

Within the cryptocurrency world, Cardano reinforced its status as a significant contender. A recent blog post from them highlighted an uptick in various key indicators during the month of July.

Last month, we observed a consistent increase in on-chain actions associated with Cardano, indicating the vibrant and expanding nature of its ecosystem. This upward trend underscores the active involvement of the engaged Cardano community.

From a performance standpoint, the platform continues to be robust, showing improvement across all areas. This could potentially lead to larger returns or optimistic investment actions towards Cardano (ADA). Unfortunately, the present situation has thwarted any chances of maintaining investor trust at a peak level.

As a seasoned crypto enthusiast with over a decade of experience under my belt, I’ve witnessed the highs and lows of the digital currency market. Recently, I came across Benjamin Cowen’s analysis post outlining a potential worst-case scenario for ADA, the native token of Cardano. While it’s important to take such insights into account, I find myself intrigued by the divided opinions among online analysts regarding ADA’s future price movement.

My friends,

It is time.

Regardless of market fluctuations, Cardano is a tried-and-true system that continues to function even during market declines. As we move into August, the platform reaches its 501st epoch, marking over 2,505 consecutive days without interruption – a significant feat for any blockchain network, given that downtime is generally a common issue they face.

Despite this, investors are still on board the bullish thesis some analysts are pushing. Staked ADA stooped low as the market flipped from bullish to bearish, prompting a 15-30% decrease in total value locked on Cardano-related chains. 

The selling pressure remains at a high level due to the market’s continuous bearishness.

It Doesn’t Look Good For ADA

Should the market persistently trend lower, it’s unlikely that the bears will relinquish their controlling position.

As a seasoned cryptocurrency trader with years of experience under my belt, I must admit that the current position of this token seems precarious. Currently, the bears are making a relentless push to breach the October 2023 price level of $0.302, and if they manage to do so, it could spell trouble for this particular asset.

This unexpected sell-off in the market might present a chance for investors betting on a rise (bulls). Since Cardano (ADA) has significantly decreased in price after this week’s downturn, bullish investors can now buy ADA at a lower cost. This could temporarily ease the pressure on the price, providing a window of time to help stabilize its value in the short term.

As an analyst, I foresee that a support level at $0.302 could prove robust if this situation unfolds. This level would likely help propel the prices back to the June-July range, which spanned between $0.407 and $0.342.
