- Within the past day, our finned friends have made quite the splash, dumping a rather handsome amount of ADA, thus propelling a downward spiral.
- And let’s not forget the derivatives market, where other technical indicators have been playing their part in this delightful downturn.
The mood around Cardano [ADA], my dear friends, has been rather dreary, with investors seemingly eager to part ways with their holdings over the past month. This little trend of ours might just carry on, given the recent spectacle of continued selling efforts.
The Great Whale Exodus
Our dear whales, those who hold the keys to the ADA kingdom, have been unloading their treasures over the last48 hours, clocking a total sale of120 million. Quite the number, wouldn’t you say?
When the market witnesses such a grand sell-off, it’s not just a lack of confidence; it’s practically an invitation for ADA to continue its downward waltz.
In the world of derivatives, the pressure to sell has been nothing short of palpable, with Open Interest in both Futures and options markets taking a tumble. Recent data shows a1.01% and0.27% dip to $697.15 million and $374.92k, respectively, all within the last24 hours.
A decline in Open Interest, my dear companions, often suggests a closing of contracts, fueled by a myriad of delightful factors such as a lack of confidence and long liquidation.

The trading volume has been under the sellers’ spell, with the long-to-short ratio dancing below1 at a press time reading of0.9767. With more sellers than buyers, ADA might just continue its graceful descent, unless, of course, the ratio dares to soar above1 again.
It appears that even DeFi investors are joining the selling spree, as the Total Value Locked (TVL) in Cardano protocols has taken a notable nosedive. From a lofty $319.58 million in April, it’s slid down by $15.54 million to a mere $304.04 million at press time.

If our DeFi enthusiasts continue to unlock their ADA from these protocols, the asset might just continue to take the plunge.
A Glimmer of Hope?
Despite the overwhelming tide of bearish sentiments, our brave spot market traders have been steadily accumulating ADA over the past week. According to AMBCrypto’s peek at Coinglass’ netflow data, these traders have been buying and tucking away their assets into private wallets, hinting at a long-term commitment to the market.
In the past week alone, $11.23 million worth of ADA has been snapped up, following the preceding week’s $44.75 million ADA shopping spree.

However, unless the broader market sentiment decides to pirouette towards a more bullish stance, the efforts of our spot market traders might just be a drop in the ocean.
