Propelling gains this week have been a sharp rise in investor attention and activity around the token. Trading volumes for ADA over the past 24 hours soared to $850 million—a staggering 138% increase.
Development activities around decentralized applications (dApps) on the network also continue to grow at a steady pace. Over 412 projects are now building on the platform, whether in early fundraising stages or actively maintained protocols leveraging Cardano’s base layer.

As markets pause to take a breath amidst the euphoric run this past week, ADA appears poised to capitalize further on any pullback should traders maintain conviction during moments of hesitation.
