Cardano (ADA) has come under renewed pressure as key technical signals point to continued weakness. The asset is trading at around $0.37, with a market cap of $13.6 billion. Its 24-hour trading volume stands at $576 million. Over the past seven days, ADA has fallen by almost 9%, adding to a larger drawdown seen in recent weeks.

Monthly MACD Turns Bearish

The MACD on the monthly chart has crossed bearish. This signal shows a shift in momentum and is often used to track longer-term price trends. In a past instance, this same signal marked the start of an 81% drop in ADA’s value. According to analyst Ali Martinez, the current crossover has already been followed by a 32% decline.

The histogram on the MACD is also below zero. This suggests that downward pressure is still building. If the pattern repeats, analysts are watching for possible support near the $0.23 level.

Meanwhile, ADA continues to trade below its key moving averages on the weekly chart. The 9-week EMA is at $0.45, and the 21-week EMA is at $0.66. The current price remains under both, showing that momentum is still weak.

In addition, the Awesome Oscillator also remains in negative territory at -0.28. The bars on the indicator are red and growing. This reflects rising bearish strength and a lack of buying activity. The trend has been in place for several months without signs of recovery.

Futures Data Shows Less Market Interest

Futures open interest for Cardano is now at around $660 million, according to CoinGlass data. This marks a sharp drop from levels above $1 billion seen earlier this year. Most of that decline has come after October, as price and participation both moved lower.

Traders are now less active in leveraged positions. This shift often shows reduced interest in short-term speculation. The connection between falling prices and open interest reflects a weaker overall market setup.

Adding to this, market data shows a bearish tone among both retail and institutional participants. Market Prophit reports that both crowd and platform sentiment for ADA are negative. Whale wallets have sold 120 million ADA in the past two months.

ADA’s inability to hold that level earlier in the year remains a key point. With no reversal signs in place, selling pressure continues to weigh on the asset.

Grayscale’s ‘first multi-crypto asset ETP’ in the works: Will BTC, ETH win?

The post Grayscale’s ‘first multi-crypto asset ETP’ in the works: Will BTC, ETH win? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways What does this approval mean for investors? It allows traditional investors to access diversified exposure to major cryptocurrencies without buying tokens directly. Which cryptocurrencies are included in GDLC? Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has greenlit the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) for stock exchange trading.  The approval, coinciding with relaxed ETF listing standards, opens the door for traditional investors to access the crypto market more easily and signals growing institutional support. Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg weighs in Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg confirmed the development on X (formerly Twitter), praising the SEC’s Crypto Task Force for providing much-needed clarity to the sector. He said,  “The Grayscale team is working expeditiously to bring the FIRST multi #crypto asset ETP to market with Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano.” He further added,  “Thank you to the SEC #Crypto Task Force for their continued, unmatched efforts in bringing the regulatory clarity our industry deserves.” The newly approved Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) offers investors exposure to five of the world’s largest cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin [BTC], Ethereum [ETH], Ripple [XRP], Solana [SOL], and Cardano [ADA]. Impact on included tokens Following the announcement, markets reacted positively. BTC traded at $117,153.61 after a 0.69% rise in the past 24 hours, Ether climbed 2.02% to $4,579.73, XRP at $3.10 up by 3.07%, Solana at $245.94 up by 4.78%, and Cardano reached $0.9130 up by 4.85%, per CoinMarketCap. By packaging multiple cryptocurrencies into a single ETP, GDLC allows traditional investors to gain diversified crypto exposure without the need to open exchange accounts or purchase individual tokens. This green light comes just months after the SEC had delayed Grayscale’s plan to convert GDLC from an over-the-counter fund to an ETP listed on NYSE Arca. With approval now granted, the fund is…
