Cardano Pain Remains High But ADA May Have Bottomed: Santiment

Cardano is showing classic bottom indicators with active wallets down 43% on their investments over the past year, and ADA dropping over 70% since September, said Santiment on Tuesday.

However, this extreme negative MVRV value (market value to realized value ratio) is generally an indicator of ADA being in an “opportunity” or “buy zone,” they added.

Cardano Sentiment Crushed

Adding to this pain, Cardano’s Binance funding rate is showing its highest short-to-long ratio since June 2023, meaning traders are heavily betting on further declines.

“This historically is another bottom signal,” they said, explaining that funding rates are always prone to liquidate and “send prices in the direction that traders are expecting the least.”

ADA was once a top ten crypto, but has now fallen to 13th place, below WhiteBIT Coin (WBT) and only just above Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

ADA prices have gained 2.5% over the past 24 hours to reach $0.26, but the asset is down almost 92% from its 2021 all-time high of $3.09 and failed to get anywhere near it in the 2025 crypto market peak.

There was very little discussion or chatter about Cardano on crypto social media, but it is not the only altcoin in pain.

Other Altcoins in Severe Pain

Solana is down almost 70% from its memecoin-driven all-time high in January 2025, with SOL prices hovering around $90 at the time of writing.

Speaking of memecoins, Dogecoin (DOGE) was down 87% from its peak price five years ago, and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is down a similar amount.

Chainlink (LINK), the once-touted standard for real-world asset tokenization, has not seen any momentum from this narrative, wallowing 83% down from its 2021 all-time high.

Not all altcoins were deep in bear markets, though, with Tron (TRX), Hyperliquid (HYPE), and Leo (LEO) faring much better.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?

The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
