However, bearish tendencies emerged as ADA failed to overcome the resistance at $1.3.
The token changes hands at $0.926 after plummeting from 24-hour highs of $1.05.
With its prevailing performance, Cardano will likely experience retracements in the mid-term.
It can slide towards the crucial foothold at $0.8 before upside resumptions.
Extended bearishness could call for support levels at $0.76 and $0.64.

It touched a daily high and low at $1.0538 and $0.8841, confirming massive volatility behind Curve’s price actions.
