Cardano (ADA) Primed for Explosive Rally as Analysts Spot Historic Cycle Repeating

Cardano’s ADA is flashing bullish signals that could mirror its past parabolic runs—just as traders start doubting its 'Ethereum killer' hype.

Patterns Don’t Lie (Until They Do)

Technical charts suggest ADA’s consolidation phase mirrors its 2021 pre-bull run structure. The same fractal appeared before its 2,000% pump last cycle—back when crypto Twitter still believed in 'fundamentals.'

Oversold or Overlooked?

With RSI dipping below 30 twice this month, ADA’s primed for a relief bounce. Whether it’s a dead cat or a rocket launch depends on Bitcoin’s mood—because altcoins still dance to BTC’s tune.

The Institutional Whisper

Gradual accumulation by whale wallets hints at smart money positioning. Meanwhile, retail traders chase newer shiny objects—proof that crypto’s memory lasts about as long as a meme coin’s lifespan.

ADA either breaks out or breaks hearts by September. Place your bets before Wall Street 'discovers' blockchain again during their annual crypto research report season.

Cardano Mirrors Previous Market Cycle

Cardano (ADA) is showing a price pattern similar to its last market cycle, according to analyst Ali Martinez. The token is positioning itself close to the Fib level 0.382 at approximately $0.623 and is at resistance on the way up towards $0.85. Martinez notes that ADA appears to be in the same phase as the 2019–2020 cycle, which later led to a strong rally.

If ADA stays above $0.62 and clears the $0.85–$0.90 range, the price may begin a multi-month climb toward $1.15 and $1.74. This cycle is unfolding more slowly than the last, pointing to a period of accumulation before a larger move.

Price Performance and Market Position

Cardano was trading at $0.72 at press time, with a 24-hour trading volume of about $1.59 billion. The token fell 8% in the past 24 hours and 9% over the past week. Its 24-hour range was $0.7154 to $0.7875, and the 7-day range was $0.7216 to $0.8536.

ADA remains well below its all-time high of $3.09, reached on September 2, 2021, representing a 76.6% drawdown. Glassnode data shows that Cardano has experienced multiple long drawdowns before recovering, following a pattern of extended consolidation periods preceding rallies.

Analysts and Market Sentiment

Market views are mixed. Market Prophit reports that crowd sentiment is bullish, while its model reads bearish. Hailey LUNC notes that ADA is breaking out of a multi-month downtrend, with bullish RSI divergence and volume spikes pointing to accumulation.

Hailey LUNC projects short-term goals around $1.20 and long-term possibilities up to $3.25 due to the expansion of the cardano ecosystem amid Midnight, Hydra, and building CIP-68. ADA continues to trade in a discount phase, and breaking key resistance could align with the early stage of its prior rally cycle.
