TL;DR<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whales accumulated almost $160 million worth of ADA in the span of only 48 hours.<\/span>
\nContinuous buying efforts, paired with non-declining demand, could trigger a price rally.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n

Increasing Exposure<\/h2>\n

The renowned analyst Ali Martinez revealed<\/a> on X that Cardano whales (those having between 100 million and 1 billion tokens) scooped up more than 200 million ADA in the last 48 hours. <\/span><\/p>\n

This quantity equals around $157 million (at current rates), while these investors now collectively hold 3.72 billion coins, or 10.3% of the asset\u2019s circulating supply.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ADA\u2019s price has increased by approximately 6% over the past week, reaching around $0.78, and the whales\u2019 activity suggests another pump might be incoming. After all, such purchases leave fewer tokens on the open market, which can <\/span>be followed<\/span> by a rally (if demand doesn\u2019t decline). <\/span>In addition<\/span>, the accumulation may encourage smaller players to <\/span>hop on<\/span> the bandwagon with fresh capital.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crypto X <\/span>is rammed<\/span> with analysts who believe ADA has yet to post substantial gains. JRNY Crypto <\/span>thinks<\/span><\/a> the $1 target will <\/span>be reached<\/span> soon, whereas Chris <\/span>believes<\/span><\/a> the valuation could spike to $2 this cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n

For his part, Martinez <\/span>argued<\/span><\/a> that ADA\u2019s price chart has been mirroring the structure of the bull run witnessed in 2021, \u201cbut unfolding more slowly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt looks like we\u2019re at the very start of an explosive move,\u201d he claimed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Are They Waiting for Something?<\/span><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s a common belief that crypto whales often have access to inside information <\/span>for<\/span> an <\/span>important<\/span> event that can <\/span>have <\/span>a major<\/span> impact <\/span>on<\/span> the price of a <\/span>certain<\/span> asset.<\/span> So let\u2019s<\/span> check what the big ADA investors <\/span>might be<\/span> waiting for.<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps it is the potential approval of the first spot ADA exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States. The entity <\/span>that wants to introduce such an<\/span> investment vehicle is Grayscale. The product will let people gain exposure to Cardano\u2019s native token without purchasing it from exchanges or worrying about self-custody methods.\u00a0<\/span>This<\/span> could have a positive effect on the price in the long term.<\/span><\/p>\n

The approval odds before the end of 2025 dropped below 60% on August 6; however, they are currently around 75% (according to Polymarket).
