Identifying itself as a third-generation blockchain and cryptocurrency system following Bitcoin and Ethereum, Cardano’s development is quite different from its competitors in that it is heavily informed by theoretical, peer-reviewed research before implementation in software nextgen gaming slots.
Cardano price faced rejection around the daily resistance at $0.84 on May 13 and declined 10% in the next four days. This daily level coincides with the 50% Fibonacci retracement ( drawn from the March 3 high of $1.17 to the April 7 low of $0.51) at $0.84, making this a key resistance zone. However, ADA retested and found support around its 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.71 on Sunday. At the time of writing on Tuesday, it trades slightly down at around $0.73.
Hoskinson has denied any claims from Alexander. In his view, the investors legitimately redeemed 99.8% of the ADA vouchers received from the first token sale. As a result, he announced on a post on X that an independent audit report would soon be made public to show the details regarding the redemption history and crowdsale process in complete transparency, which could go a long way in rebuilding confidence and repairing his reputation.
One indicator supporting this is the outflow of ADA seen from centralized exchanges. Data from CoinGlass reveals that over $932 million worth of ADA was withdrawn from exchanges in 2025 alone. This points to an increase in investors’ confidence in ADA.

On April 2, the US president levied retaliatory tariffs on all US trade partners, sending Wall Street into a spiral. Between the announcement after market close and the end of trading on April 8, global markets wiped off more than $8.5 trillion in asset value. By the same date, the S&P 500 had fallen by just north of 12%.
The Liberals started the year trailing well behind the Conservatives as former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stepped down. On Trump’s inauguration day, Conservatives led polling at a 44% polling average to the Liberals’ 21%.
From a technical standpoint, the most important news from the past month was arguably the shift in development priorities by the Ethereum Foundation (EF). There are multiple elements to the changes, but from the standpoint of investing in the Ether (ETH) token, the key change, in our view, was the renewed focus on scaling the Ethereum Layer 1 (i.e., increasing the transaction throughput of the Ethereum mainnet itself). Based on EF comments on social media and elsewhere, the rough expectation seems to be a 3x increase in Layer 1 transactions per second (TPS) each year for several years, with a long-run target of 10,000 TPS (Exhibit 4). Increasing Layer 1 TPS while maintaining a degree of pricing power is the best way to increase transaction fees, reduce token supply, and support the token’s price (for more detail, see Ethereum: The OG Smart Contract Blockchain).

Short-term catalyst effect: Historically, major Ethereum upgrades often serve as catalysts for price increases. For example: after the Chaella upgrade in April 2023, ETH rose 45%; before the Dencun upgrade in March 2024, ETH gained 70%. If the Pectra mainnet upgrade goes smoothly, the market may speculate on the technical benefits in advance, driving ETH to continue rising and touching the $2,800-3,000 range.
FinCEN notes FATF identifies jurisdictions with AML/CFT deficiencies. On February 26, FinCEN announced that the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) updated its lists of jurisdictions with strategic anti-money laundering (AML), countering the financing of terrorism (CFT), and countering the financing of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (CPF) deficiencies at the conclusion of its plenary meeting this month. FinCEN informed US financial institutions to consider FATF’s stance toward these jurisdictions when reviewing their obligations and risk-based policies, procedures, and practices. FATF added Laos and Nepal to its list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring and removed the Philippines from that list. Additionally, FATF’s list of high-risk jurisdictions subject to a call for action remains the same (Iran, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and Burma).
If March data is strong, it may intensify market concerns about the Fed maintaining “higher for longer” rates, the dollar index may strengthen further, suppressing Bitcoin prices; conversely, weak data may boost rate cut expectations, benefiting the crypto market. Currently, the Fed has slowed balance sheet reduction (reducing the Treasury redemption cap to $5 billion/month starting April), the marginal improvement in liquidity may form a tug-of-war with non-farm data.
From the chart above, we can see that historically in April, Bitcoin has had more positive returns overall. Out of 12 years, the ratio of rises to falls is 8:4, indicating that upward trends have an absolute advantage. In the second year after the previous three halvings, i.e., 2013, 2017, and 2021, the rise-to-fall ratio was also 2:1. Overall, historical data shows that April is often a month of market sentiment adjustment and significant volatility for Bitcoin.
Compared to the bustling March, April seems much quieter. The Federal Reserve has no meetings, and central banks of major economies are also temporarily subdued. We’ll see more continuation of relevant policies, such as the implementation of Trump’s tariff policies and the Fed’s slowing of balance sheet reduction.
