Cardano (ADA) is trading around $0.26 on Wednesday, February 25, holding above a key support level after a rough stretch in the market.

The token hit a high of $0.90 earlier in 2025 but has since dropped over 71%, briefly touching lows near $0.20 before recovering slightly.

Despite the price decline, large holders have been buying. According to on-chain data from Santiment, wallets holding between 100,000 and 100 million ADA added 819.4 million tokens over the past six months.

That accumulation is worth roughly $213.9 million at current prices and represents about 1.6% of ADA’s total supply.

The group’s share of total supply also grew, rising from 66.84% to 68.44% during the same period. These wallets now collectively hold 25.35 billion ADA tokens.

Whale Buying Signals Confidence at Lows

The buying activity from large wallets came as ADA traded at multi-month lows. It suggests that some of the market’s biggest holders see current prices as an entry point rather than a reason to sell.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson also commented recently on broader crypto progress, saying development across major blockchains — including Cardano — continues despite market pressure.

What the Charts Are Saying

The technical picture is mixed. ADA’s MACD shows a small bearish crossover, meaning short-term momentum still favors sellers.

The Chaikin Money Flow reading remains below zero, pointing to continued capital outflows.

Histogram bars are improving slightly but remain in negative territory, suggesting the trend is shifting slowly rather than sharply.

The $0.25 level is acting as support, with buyers stepping in at that price on average volume.

A move above $0.27 could lead to a retest of $0.28, which analysts are watching as a near-term sentiment level.

A break past $0.28 could open the door to $0.30, where heavier resistance is expected.

If sellers push Cardano below $0.25, the next support level sits at $0.24.

ADA is also down about 7% over the past seven days, with broader concerns around US tariff developments weighing on the crypto market.

CoinCodex models estimate ADA could reach $0.2766 by end of 2026 and $0.2997 by 2030.

As of Wednesday, ADA was trading at approximately $0.266, with traders watching the $0.25 support and $0.27–$0.30 resistance zone closely.
