Large Transactions Correlate with Price Action  

On-chain data from IntoTheBlock shows that big transactions have played an important role in ADA’s movements. Over the past three months, the number of transactions peaked, with December 26, 2024, recording the weekly high at 5.62K. Conversely, the weekly low of 4.17K transactions were recorded during the same week, reflecting fluctuating demand. Within the last 24 hours, 4.73K large trades were processed, showcasing investor interest despite recent price volatility.

Interestingly, spikes in transaction activity coincided with market peaks. In late November and early December 2024, ADA reached $1.25 to $1.50, driven by increased whale and institutional participation. However, declining transaction volumes in late December corresponded with ADA’s dip below $0.75, underscoring the importance of large transactions in maintaining upward momentum.  

Rising Volume Signals Renewed Optimism  

ADA’s 24-hour trading volume surged by 44.60%, totaling $775.75 million, with a volume-to-market-cap ratio of 3.12%. This increase reflects heightened liquidity and growing investor interest. The price started at $0.7011, fluctuating through dips and recoveries before consolidating near the $0.70 mark. This resilience indicates market support, even as volatility impacts short-term movements.

Outlook: Will ADA Hit $1.50?  

The consistent activity in large transactions, coupled with growing adoption and ecosystem developments, supports predictions of ADA reaching $1.50. Historical patterns suggest that if large transaction volumes regain their November 2024 peaks, the price could follow a similar trajectory. Moreover, ADA’s fundamentals and steady on-chain metrics show its potential to achieve this milestone.
