If you've experienced the price movements of ZEC during that period, you might find ADA's current situation somewhat familiar.

In the past day, ADA dropped another 2.5%, fluctuating around $0.1637. The 24-hour high reached $0.1688, the low dipped to $0.1580, unable to break up or down. The moving averages are heavily pressing down—7-day at 0.1766, 25-day at 0.2251, 99-day at 0.2490—all acting as resistance. The MACD is also negative, with DIF and DEA both below the zero line, trading volume fluctuates but remains generally subdued.

To others looking at this chart, it might seem like this coin is no good anymore.

But there are always two types of people in the market. One group panics over negative news, while another quietly accumulates chips at the bottom.

ADA's current situation is very similar to ZEC before its price surged back then. All kinds of bad news flying around—governance issues unresolved, ecological projects repeatedly failing, community arguments nonstop. The price just won't go up, staying stagnant for a long time. Many can't hold on, thinking this project has no hope, and sell off.

But have you noticed something else?

Whale wallets holding more than 10 million ADA have increased their holdings to the highest point in four months. Whales are slowly eating up. The price isn't rising, but big money is flowing in. This usually has only two explanations: either they are fools or they are accumulating.

Coupled with another piece of news—by June 2026, which is this month, Cardano will launch the Ouroboros Leios testnet. The goal is to process over 1,000 transactions per second. If it can be implemented, performance will take a big step forward. There's also the US CLARITY bill, which might classify ADA as a digital asset, reducing regulatory ambiguity.

See, negative news is obvious, everyone can see it. But upgrades, institutional entry, clearer regulation—these potential changes are brewing slowly.

The phase of truly building a bottom often looks like this—price stagnates, sentiment is pessimistic, retail investors can't hold on, while big players quietly accumulate. When the negative news is fully digested, upgrades are implemented, liquidity returns, the price might already be far from this level.

ADA's current sideways movement may seem boring, but for those who understand the script, it's actually the best time to watch closely. $ADA ‌#比特币回升5%
