Analysts predict 10% rally in Cardano price as liquidity from Tether floods the market

  • Cardano price is likely to observe a 10% rally in its price with a $0.32 target, according to technical analyst Dan Gambardello. 
  • USD Tether reserves on exchanges have hit a historical all-time high as the stablecoin’s liquidity climbs in the crypto ecosystem. 
  • Cardano’s on-chain metrics, daily active addresses and social dominance support experts’ thesis of a rally in ADA price.

Dan Gambardello, a crypto expert and analyst, told his 242,400 followers on Twitter that Cardano price is likely to witness a 10% rally. The expert set a $0.32 target for ADA price in the event of a rally in the altcoin.

The rising liquidity from USD Tether flooding the crypto market and bullish on-chain metrics could act as catalysts for Cardano price rally in the short term.

Three catalysts likely driving Cardano price rally

On-chain metrics daily address activity, trade volume, accumulation by large wallet investors and the rising social dominance of Cardano have painted a bullish picture for ADA price. An increase in daily address activity and trade volume signals an increase in adoption and utility of the asset among holders.

Typically, a spike in these metrics is associated with an upcoming rally in the price.

Data from crypto intelligence tracker Santiment reveals that spikes in daily active addresses is associated with a rally in ADA, as seen on three previous instances. In week 2, 3 and 4 of June, rising address activity was followed by an increase in Cardano price. If the trend repeats itself, ADA price is likely to rally in the short term.

Moreover, whale accumulation, considered a typical indicator of an upcoming rally in an asset, picked up pace in ADA. Whales holding between 1 million and 10 million ADA tokens have scooped up more Cardano tokens between July 2 and 4, as seen in the chart below.

Social dominance, a metric that tracks the mentions of an asset across social media platforms like Twitter, is associated with recoveries in crypto prices. ADA social dominance climbed consistently, between July 2 and 4, and the rise in the metric is followed by an uptick in price as seen in the chart below.

Furthermore, Tether reserves on exchanges have hit an all-time high, and this is another likely contributor of recovery in assets that have suffered a decline in June 2023.

After the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) crackdown on crypto, ADA price suffered a steep decline. ADA price bled 30% from $0.37 to $0.26, between June 5 and 15, in a ten-day timeframe of the SEC crackdown on crypto.

Tether’s infusion of liquidity in the crypto ecosystem could drive a recovery in ADA price by absorbing selling pressure on the altcoin and representing demand for altcoins like Cardano.
