Cardano (ADA) price stabilizes trading at around $0.62 at the time of writing on Thursday after breaking out of a falling wedge pattern the previous day. This bullish breakout comes as Bitcoin (BTC) reaches new all-time highs, fueling a wave of optimism for ADA and the overall cryptocurrency market. Derivatives data show that ADA’s open interest (OI) and bullish bets among traders are increasing, reflecting growing investor confidence. The technical outlook also suggests a continuation of the rally toward the $0.73 mark.
