Whales Continue to Pile Up, So When a Cardano Surge?

Tl; DR

• The uncertainty of the market and the prudent behavior of investors, who were obvious in the first quarter and in early April, seem to be behind us, because the whales came back in force for several large cryptocurrencies.
• In April alone, these major market players made a series of accumulation not only for BTC and XRP, but also Ada.

The data shared by popular analyst Ali Martinez indicate that whales had accumulated more than 410,000,000 ADA in April only. In terms of USD value, the hiding place is worth nearly $ 300 million today.

This contrasts strongly with their behavior at the end of February and in mid-March, when reports emerged on the left and right on large sales.

The overall feeling of the market was much less favorable at the time, because the trade war initiated by US President Trump struck all the financial areas, and Crypto was no exception.

Now, however, while the tariff shock seems to be finished, investors gradually return to the cryptocurrency space with large purchases. As indicated earlier this week, whales accumulated $ 4 billion in BTC in just two weeks.

In April, they also made an XRP purchase frenzy, buying more than 900,000,000 tokens. Although the number for ADA is smaller in absolute terms and in USD perspective, it always shows a change in massive behavior.

ADA's price fell to a hollow of several months of $ 0.5 at the beginning of April. It has recovered around 40% since then and is now at $ 0.7. However, significant similar purchases in whales are likely to have a positive long -term effect on its price if they continue to accumulate instead of selling.
