approaches.<\/li>\n<li>ADA on-chain activity and whale accumulation remain strong.<\/li>\n<li>ADA price hinges on ETF outcome, with key support at $0.72.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cardano price remains in a state of prolonged consolidation as the market eagerly awaits the US Securities and Exchange Commission\u2019s (SEC) imminent decision on a spot Cardano exchange-traded fund (ETF).<\/p>\n<p>Despite a 9% price surge earlier in May, ADA\u2019s current pullback and sideways movement have cast uncertainty over its next move, especially as it trades near a critical support zone.<\/p>\n<h2>Contrasting on-chain metrics and technical signals<\/h2>\n<p>At the time of writing, ADA is hovering around $0.74, down approximately 2% in the past 24 hours, reflecting a noticeable decline in short-term momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the broader picture tells a story of increased investor interest and heightened on-chain activity, driven primarily by optimism surrounding the potential approval of <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/nyse-arca-files-19b-4-for-grayscale-cardano-etf-as-bitcoin-pepes-presale-goes-live\/\">the Grayscale ADA ETF<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As anticipation builds, the Cardano network has witnessed a marked spike in daily transactions, climbing from under 30,000 to nearly 50,000 in just a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>This growing activity on-chain has also been mirrored by an uptick in Cardano\u2019s transaction volume, which reached an impressive $684.6 million within the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, investor sentiment remains mixed, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/ADA\">Open Interest in ADA derivatives<\/a> rising above $945 million while the funding rate dropped sharply, indicating cautious positioning among leveraged traders.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, technical signals continue to flash warning signs as ADA trades within a triangle pattern, suggesting a potential breakout or breakdown as price volatility tightens near the apex.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-311781\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Cardano-price-chart.png\" alt=\"Cardano price chart\" width=\"1341\" height=\"806\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Notably, the MACD crossover and the bearish histogram, signals the potential of a breakdown rather than a breakout.<\/p>\n<h2>Cardano price forecast<\/h2>\n<p>Going by the technical Cardano price analysis, close below the 200-day EMA, currently around $0.72, could trigger a more pronounced decline toward the $0.64 level, which last served as support in early May.<\/p>\n<p>However, should ADA defy the bears and close above the $0.84 resistance, a run towards the $1.12 level, last seen in December, could quickly materialise.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the intrigue is the recent launch of Bitcoin DeFi on the Cardano blockchain, a development that has further expanded the network\u2019s utility and may help sustain investor interest beyond the ETF hype.<\/p>\n<p>Charles Hoskinson, Cardano\u2019s founder, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/IOHK_Charles\/status\/1927468665722589345\">has celebrated the integration<\/a> as a milestone in blockchain interoperability, emphasising the network\u2019s capacity to bridge Bitcoin\u2019s security with Cardano\u2019s advanced smart contracts.<\/p>\n<p>With Bitcoin holders now able to participate in lending, borrowing, and yield farming directly on Cardano, the ecosystem is expected to attract more liquidity and a broader user base in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the number of active Cardano investors has recently declined, with data from Artemis showing a steep drop from over 60,000 to just above 20,000 addresses, raising concerns about waning participation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-311782\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/daily-active-Cardano-investors.jpg\" alt=\"daily active Cardano investors\" width=\"1920\" height=\"800\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This decrease in active users coincides with bearish indicators in the futures market, including a Taker Buy\/Sell Ratio below 1, which underscores prevailing sell pressure.<\/p>\n<p>However, spot market activity remains somewhat supportive, as substantial ADA outflows from exchanges point to growing accumulation and long-term holding among retail and whale investors alike.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, over $57 million worth of ADA has left centralised platforms over the past week, marking the largest net outflow since early March and hinting at strengthening bullish conviction.<\/p>\n<p>Still, ADA finds itself wedged between significant liquidity levels near $0.74 and $0.78, creating a narrow range in which the next decisive price move could swing dramatically in either direction.<\/p>\n<p>As the <a href=\"https:\/\/public-inspection.federalregister.gov\/2025-04186.pdf\">May 29 SEC deadline<\/a> approaches, the market appears to be at a crossroads, with either approval or delay likely to determine ADA\u2019s short-term trajectory.<\/p>\n<p>If the ETF is approved, Cardano could quickly challenge the psychological $1 resistance, particularly as whales continue to accumulate and developers ramp up activity on-chain.<\/p>\n<p>However, a rejection or further delay may reverse recent transaction gains and reintroduce selling pressure, especially in the absence of immediate bullish catalysts.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, Cardano\u2019s future now hinges on both regulatory clarity and its ability to convert heightened interest into sustained ecosystem growth.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl
