ADA in Free Fall: Bearish Structure and Loss of Top 10 Status<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The collapse of Cardano<\/a> (ADA)<\/strong> marks a brutal turning point. Ejected from the Top 10 market capitalizations<\/strong>, overtaken by Bitcoin<\/a> Cash and new players like Hyperliquid, the token<\/a> now trades around $0.27<\/strong>. Erasing several months of chart construction and reviving memories of the 2022 crash<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a technical perspective, the situation is critical. ADA is evolving within a heavy bearish structure<\/strong>, after breaking several major support levels. The return to 2023 lows is accompanied by a spectacular drop in Open Interest (-79%)<\/strong>. A clear signal of speculator flight and massive liquidations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market sentiment<\/strong> is extremely degraded. Even Charles Hoskinson<\/strong> is cited in discussions, with rumors of significant unrealized losses, fueling a climate of FUD. A break below the psychological threshold of $0.25<\/strong> would open the door to another leg down toward still unexplored territories.<\/p>\n\n\n

Discreet Accumulation and Potential Bottom Scenario<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Despite this hemorrhage, on-chain data reveals an opposite reading from smart money. Grayscale has strengthened ADA exposure in its Smart Contract Fund, increasing from 18.50% to 19.55%<\/strong>, suggesting a strategic accumulation zone<\/strong> at current levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whales, particularly those holding between 10 and 100 million ADA<\/a><\/strong>, have accumulated nearly $40 million<\/strong> during the drop. This price\/accumulation divergence is historically associated with bottom zones, where major players take advantage of retail panic to position themselves long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, no guarantee of immediate rebound exists. ADA could enter a prolonged consolidation phase, testing the patience of remaining holders. The $0.26 – $0.27<\/strong> levels will be decisive: either a break toward $0.20<\/strong>, or a technical bounce with volume, the first signal of a possible Cardano resurrection<\/strong> by 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
