Cardano (ADA) isn’t having the best day, dipping below $0.80 with a 3.7% slide.
But some analysts argue this decline may be the calm before a storm—of the bullish kind.
One trader, known as Crypto King, sees a promising setup on the chart. ADA’s price is coiling within a symmetrical triangle, a formation often signaling an explosive move once the range breaks. If buying pressure kicks in, he expects a sharp rally toward $1.60.
Supporting the case for a bounce is the recent cooling in market leverage. Over $6 million in long positions have been flushed out in the past 48 hours, easing pressure and clearing space for a healthier price run.
Meanwhile, founder Charles Hoskinson remains optimistic about ADA’s potential to eventually surpass Bitcoin’s performance, even as the token struggles short-term.
While momentum is uncertain, technical signals and on-chain shifts suggest Cardano’s next move could be much stronger than today’s price would suggest.

It started in 2016 with Bitcoin. Like most people at the time, he didn't fully understand it - so he kept digging. Blockchain, tokenomics, the projects, the cycles. That curiosity never stopped, and eventually pulled him into traditional markets too: equities, commodities, macro. Not because he left crypto behind, but because you can't properly understand one without the other.
What drives him is straightforward: he wants to know why something is happening, not just that it's happening. Most market coverage stops at the headline - price up, price down, here's a chart. Alex finds that kind of reporting actively unhelpful. If you walk away from an article without understanding the mechanism behind the move, what did you actually learn?

He has authored over 200 in-depth analyses and more than 10,000 articles across crypto and traditional finance. He still thinks every day in markets teaches him something new. That's probably why he hasn't stopped.
