Cardano Whale Transaction Volume Soars – ADA Price Direction Change Likely, Santiment Says
On May 12, Santiment analytics team noticed a spike in whale transactions on Cardano chain, while the price dipped to the $0.40 level. The tweet even specified the times when this rise in transaction volume occurred – between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m.
Santiment stressed that whale transaction spikes like these are often followed by ADA price reversal.
🐳 #Cardano's whales showed a flurry of transactions yesterday as prices were bottoming out to $0.40, between 8am and 12pm UTC. These spikes have very commonly indicated price direction changes for $ADA, and we're monitoring further whale activity closely. — Santiment (@santimentfeed) May 13, 2022
By now, the top 7 coin ADA is trading at $0.5301 after recovering to the $0.6 zone from $0.4. At the moment, ADA is 82.72 percent below its historic peak of $3.10 reached on September 2.
This year, on January 18, the coin managed to rise a high of $1.6.
BSC whales holding 30.8 million ADA
As covered by U.Today earlier this week, some of the largest whales on the BNB Chain are holding roughly 30.8 million ADA coins (on BCS) in their portfolios.
The addresses of “whales” contain a $886,582 worth of various cryptocurrencies on average.
This suggests that these BSC investors have been accumulating ADA actively as of late.
