Cardano (ADA), once one of the most resilient cryptocurrencies in the market, is now grappling with increasing bearish momentum.

Despite the current bearish setup, ADA isn’t entirely without hope. If bulls manage to reverse the trend, the first critical resistance to watch is at $0.781.

However, such a recovery would require a clear shift in market sentiment, increased volume, and renewed accumulation from large investors—none of which are currently present.
