Cardano Explodes Onto Blockchain.com’s DeFi Wallet – $2.98B Trading Volume Signals Major Adoption

Cardano just bulldozed its way into Blockchain.com's DeFi wallet—and traders are piling in like it's a bull market happy hour. Trading volume rocketed to $2.98B as ADA finally gets the institutional-grade playground it’s been teasing for years.

The DeFi Domino Effect

Integration with a heavyweight like Blockchain.com isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a liquidity magnet. Suddenly, staking, swapping, and yield farming ADA just got mainstream cred.

Volume Talks, Hype Walks

That $2.98B figure isn’t retail FOMO alone. Market makers and algo traders are clearly circling, turning Cardano into this cycle’s ‘narrative coin’ du jour. (Cue the usual suspects declaring ‘this time it’s different.’)

Cardano’s long-promised ‘academic rigor’ meets real-world demand—just in time for the next wave of degens to overleverage. Some things never change.

The crypto market is on the rise, with major altcoins rallying in the past 24 hours. Cardano also saw strong gains and is currently trading at $0.8534, up 5.8%. It saw a rise in trading activity, with 24-hour volume hitting $2.98 billion, up 31.3% from the previous day. 

Blockchain.com Adds Cardano to DeFi Wallet

Cardano has just been integrated into Blockchain.com’s DeFi Wallet, opening access to 37 million users. Users can send, receive, and hold ADA directly, right alongside Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and more.

This update also brings support for Cardano Native Assets (CNAs), which allows access to the growing ecosystem of tokens built on Cardano, all from one secure wallet. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson reacted to this, calling it a big step forward in ADA’s adoption. He praised the Midnight Foundation for successfully leading the negotiations that made this partnership possible.

Welcome cardano to https://t.co/KiGCZuoVVE's 37 million users. Congratulations to the @midnightfdn for the great negotiations https://t.co/NwXdJQ1Urp

Users can also stay ready for upcoming airdrops and explore new projects launching on Cardano and its sidechains. There is no need for external wallets or bridges. 

Notably, Cardano is recognized as one of the top 3 most mature blockchains alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, under the newly passed CLARITY Act in the U.S. However, GROK clarified that the bill does not explicitly name Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, or any other project as “likely mature.” 

The CLARITY Act sets criteria for what qualifies as a “mature blockchain” based on factors such as decentralization and token distribution.

On-Chain Metrics Show Strength

Data from Tap Tools shows that Google search interest in Cardano is surging to levels not seen since its 2021 all-time high. 

On-chain data shows that the long-term holders are not selling, and the MVRV ratio suggests there’s room for more upside. Besides, ADA’s 20-day EMA has now crossed above the 50-day, 100-day, and, just recently, the 200-day EMA. This indicates strong upward momentum and a healthy trend.

Analysts See Breakout Potential

Cardano is trading around $0.835. Analyst Dan Gambardello notes that a major bullish signal is flashing as the weekly MACD just turned green, similar to its MOVE in November 2020. This marked the start of the last bull market. 

Key support sits at the 200-week moving average NEAR $0.63, and a breakout could target $1.00–$1.15. However, a short-term pullback is possible. The RSI shows bearish divergence, and ADA may retest support levels in the $0.70s or $0.60s. Still, long-term indicators suggest strength is building.
