Recent fluctuations in Cardano's (ADA) exchange rate have attracted market attention as large holders, known as whales, began actively selling their holdings.

Whale Activity and Cardano Price Trends

Recently, the activity of whales holding large volumes of ADA tokens significantly affected the cryptocurrency's value. Starting with a gradual decrease in the number of such holders in December, critical levels were reached on January 7, 2025, when a substantial reduction occurred. This led to a drop in ADA's exchange rate to $0.9146. However, as selling sentiments decreased, the price stabilized within the $0.90 – $0.92 range. Potential changes in large holders' strategies could play a crucial role in the near future.

Market Metrics and Performance

In the last 24 hours, Cardano's price increased to $1, related to an 8% market cap rise to $35.15 billion and a trading volume increase of 13.50%. Contributing factors include a recent partnership with FC Barcelona announced by Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard. However, despite the short-term rise, ADA's overall seven-day performance has seen a 4.85% decrease in value.

Open Interest Decline and Its Impact

The total open interest for Cardano is $565.7 million, with a 10.22% increase observed over the last 24 hours. Perpetual contracts, having grown by 10.28%, contributed significantly. This indicates a rise in speculative activity. Bybit holds the largest share of open interest at $273.35 million. Analysts have an optimistic outlook for Cardano's future due to a series of new developments and the potential ETF approval.

Recent changes in Cardano's price and whale activity underscore the need to carefully analyze market trends and large investors' behavior to forecast further development.
