Cardano Analyst Predicts '100–150% Massive Bullish Rally' as Holders Show Record Confidence

Cardano's (ADA-USD) price has finally broken free from months of sideways trading. Analyst Clifton Fx says the move confirms a bull flag breakout on the three-day chart. This pattern often signals strong upside ahead.

The rally started from the lower end of the trendline and has now pushed ADA above key resistance levels. According to Clifton Fx, if momentum holds, Cardano could rise between 100% and 150% in the coming weeks. That would put the price in the $1.60–$1.75 range, levels last reached in early 2024.
The breakout comes with ADA up 20% in the past 24 hours, reaching $0.99, its highest point in five months. This puts the token among the top performers in the altcoin market right now.
Traders Set Sights on Key ADA Price Targets
Cardano's rally has caught the attention of a lot of people. Trader_Jibon predicts ADA will first reclaim its November high near $1.32. After that, the target would shift toward the mid-2022 peak of $1.63.
These targets line up closely with Clifton Fx's projections. If ADA can hold above new support, the move toward $1.60–$1.75 could play out faster than expected.
Long-Term ADA Holders Strengthen the Bullish Case
Confidence among long-term ADA holders has reached record highs. Data from TapTools shows 15 billion ADA has not moved for more than a year. This suggests reduced selling pressure, which can give rallies more room to run.
At the same time, retail interest is picking up. Google searches for 'Cardano' have hit a five-month peak. Searches for 'altcoin' are at their highest since 2021. Historically, similar spikes have happened during major shifts of capital from Bitcoin into altcoins, such as the ICO surge of 2018 and the DeFi-NFT boom of 2021.
The rally in ADA is part of a broader altcoin market surge. Many traders believe an 'altcoin season,' when alternative cryptocurrencies outperform Bitcoin, is starting to take shape.
If that trend continues, and long-term holders keep their grip on ADA, Cardano could be in position for the type of explosive rally its chart patterns are now signaling.
At the time of writing, ADA is sitting at $0.9135.

ETH To Surpass BTC In Market Cap Soon? Ethereum Co-Founder Joseph Lubin Predicts 'Astonishing Things' In The Next Year

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. The great "flippening" may be upon us, according to Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin. "I think we talked about the flippening where ether will eclipse the monetary base size of Bitcoin," Lubin told CNBC last month. "Some think that will never happen. Some people think that will take a few years. I think we may see astonishing things in the next year or so, especially with these treasury companies driving things." The flippening refers to the possibility that Ethereum's market capitalization tops Bitcoin's. For core believers, especially in the early days of Ethereum, it seemed like a no-brainer. Ethereum's programmability meant it offered greater utility than Bitcoin. It did come close to happening in 2017, with the market capitalization of Ethereum rising to almost 84% that of Bitcoin's. However, the gap only widened since then. Don't Miss: The same firms that backed Uber, Venmo and eBay are investing in this pre-IPO company disrupting a $1.8T market — — no wallets, just price speculation and free paper trading to practice different strategies. At last look, the market capitalization of Ethereum, $531 billion, is only 22% of Bitcoin's $2.4 trillion. But optimism is growing again, as highlighted by Lubin's recent remarks. "There is a significant probability that Ethereum could flip Bitcoin in terms of network value," Fundstrat investment chief Tom Lee said in an Aug. 6 episode of the cryptocurrency podcast "Bankless." Lubin and Lee have put their money and reputation where their mouth is by launching Ethereum treasury firms that have rapidly accumulated billions of dollars worth of the asset. These treasuries have also helped boost overall ETH bullishness. Trending: 'Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. The mood shift comes as the tokenization narrative appears to be taking root on Wall Street. The belief is that global markets and assets will eventually move on blockchains for lower costs, faster settlement times and 24/7 availability. As highlighted by Bitwise investment chief Matt Hougan recently, it is an opportunity in the hundreds of trillions. It is a blockchain application that could be bigger than Bitcoin itself, Hougan pointed out at the time. Ethereum is expected to be the primary beneficiary of these anticipated inflows as it is presently the preferred tokenization venue with 55% of the market share, according to This market share increases to nearly 80% if you count the share of Layer 2 chains ZKsync Era and Arbitrum for Ethereum. Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) recently chose Arbitrum to launch tokenized stock trading for European course, the anticipated tokenization flows are expected to have significant price implications for ETH. Lee, for example, has said that the asset could surge to between $7,000 and $15,000 in the short term. He also sees the possibility of a $20,000 plus valuation in the long term. Besides Lee, VanEck has also recently dusted off its June 2024 prediction that ETH could hit $22,000 by 2030. At last look, ETH is trading near $4,300, a 200% increase over its April low of $1,400. The surge is buoyed by buys from treasury companies and record inflows from exchange-traded funds amid the tokenization hype. At the same time, the asset is just 12% shy of its $4,900 price record. Will the tokenization narrative be what takes Ethereum to the symbolic flippening milestone? Only Time can tell. Read Next: Bill Gates Warned About Water Scarcity.

Roku Stock (NASDAQ:ROKU) Dips as Howdy Installation Proves a Mite Aggressive

Remember just a couple of weeks ago when we first heard about the new Howdy streaming app from streaming video stock Roku (ROKU)? While some thought it was a fine idea, and others were not so certain, there are some signs that Howdy may be a bit more intrusive than anyone expected. And investors are not exactly pleased about this, sending shares down fractionally in the closing minutes of Thursday's trading. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Basically, not long after Howdy officially launched, Roku put out the command to install it on not only Roku devices, but also on every Roku smart TV. Anything with the Roku branding on it got Howdy whether its owner wanted it or not. Of course, for some, this was just a handy shortcut to get an app they were likely going to get anyway to see what was on it. But for others, they never wanted Howdy around in the first place. Reports note, however, that removing Howdy is surprisingly easy, and about as simple. Just start at the home screen, find Howdy—usually, newer apps install near the bottom of the list—and then just use the star button on your remote to open up options. Select 'remove channel' from there, and just like that, Howdy moseys off into the sunset. Should you change your mind later, reinstalling Howdy will work like installing any other app. A Seat at the Sports Table We all know that sports are playing an ever-increasing role in the strategies of streaming platforms. And, as it turns out, Roku will have a seat at the table in talking about the future of sports. It will be joining representatives of several other platforms including FuboTV (FUBO) and Amazon's (AMZN) Prime Video at the upcoming TheGrill 2025 event. Roku will be part of a session titled 'Sports & Streaming: Driving Value Across the Ecosystem.' The session will cover topics like rights purchases, building content hubs, and technical innovation in the sector. The end result should be a lot of new information coming out that demonstrates where the future of sports streaming will be headed. And Roku's presence therein demonstrates that it has credibility enough to join in the proceedings. Is Roku Stock a Good Buy? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Moderate Buy consensus rating on ROKU stock based on 15 Buys, six Holds, and one Sell assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 48.62% rally in its share price over the past year, the average ROKU price target of $104.05 per share implies 18.91% upside potential.

Gold heads for weekly decline as US inflation data dims Fed rate cut hopes

By Anmol Choubey (Reuters) - Gold prices edged higher on Friday, buoyed by a weaker dollar, but were poised for a weekly decline after hotter-than-expected U.S. inflation data dampened prospects for a super-sized September rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Spot gold rose 0.3% to $3,345.21 per ounce as of 0757 GMT. Bullion has lost 1.5% for the week. U.S. gold futures for December delivery gained 0.3% to $3,391.70. The U.S. dollar index fell 0.3%, making gold less expensive for other currency holders. [USD/] "In the short term, gold has a heightened inverse relationship to moves in the U.S. dollar, which in turn is being whipsawed by economic data and fast news on both tariffs and Ukraine," independent analyst Ross Norman said. U.S. producer prices increased by the most in three years in July amid a surge in the costs of goods and services, signaling a broader inflation uptick, data showed on Thursday. Weekly jobless claims also came in lower than expected, at 224,000 compared to forecasts of 228,000. The economic data shifted expectations for a Fed rate cut, with investors now anticipating easing in October rather than September. Non-yielding gold typically performs well in low-interest-rate environments. Consumer price index data earlier this week showed only a marginal increase in July, briefly boosting hopes for large-size rate cut by the Fed. "We have seen in the past that gold price corrections get smaller and smaller, suggesting that some buyers, who missed out in the past, use these price setbacks as a way to gain exposure to the yellow metal," said UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo. Physical gold demand in India improved slightly this week as a price pullback lifted buying interest among consumers, while activity in other top Asian hubs remained lacklustre. [GOL/AS] On the geopolitical front, investors are awaiting the outcome of U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin's meeting in Alaska later in the day. Elsewhere, spot silver gained 0.1% to $38.02 per ounce, platinum rose 0.5% to $1,363.90, and palladium lost 0.2% to $1,143.25. Sign in to access your portfolio
