Cardano was in a tight range at a crucial support level after Charles Hoskinson made a case for the network and its token. Cardano (ADA) was trading at $0.80, down by over 40% from its highest level in December last year. The coin wavered after Hoskinson, its founder, blasted Ethereum and Solana in a long YouTube interview. In it, he noted that its biggest differentiating factor was that it was working on integrating with Bitcoin — a move that he believes is an unexplored $2 trillion opportunity. He said: “Somebody is going to crack it. We will work on it hard as we aim to be the Decentralized Finance or DeFi layer of the Bitcoin network. I don’t think it Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) have what it takes to achieve this.” Hoskinson’s interview came a few months after Cardano announced a partnership with BitcoinOS. This integration is expected to be activated in the next few months. Cardano is not the first blockchain to create a Bitcoin layer. Core, a layer-2 for Bitcoin’s ecosystem, has attracted 53 developers and a total value locked of $626 million. Stacks (STX) has 12 dApps and $104 million in assets.

L2 networks like Base, Arbitrum, and Optimism have become key players in the Ethereum network, handling transactions worth billions of dollars. These L2 networks are popular because of their lower transaction fees and the fact that they leverage Ethereum’s security. He also blasted Solana, a highly popular Cardano competitor, arguing that it cannot survive, especially when data moved in its ecosystem surges. Hoskinson’s interview came a week ahead of his so-called VIP meeting. Crypto analysts anticipate it will be X owner Elon Musk.

Its upper side was a crucial level since it coincided with the 38.2% Fibonacci Retracement level. Cardano then retreated to $0.524 as it moved to form the second phase of the Elliot Wave pattern.

Only 44% of U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF inflows linked to long-term investments: 10x Research Markus Thielen, head of research at crypto market research firm 10x Research, reported that only 44% of U.S. spot Bitcoin $BTC ETF inflows are associated with long-term investments, according to Cointelegraph. The U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced a total net inflow of $39 billion since their launch in January 2024, Thielen stated, while adding that merely $17.5 billion has stemmed from long-only purchases. The remaining 56% seems to have been utilized in arbitrage strategies correlated with Bitcoin futures. In addition, the 10x Research executive also noted that the largest holders of the BlackRock spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) are hedge funds and trading firms. As these largest holders "specialize in exploiting market inefficiencies and capturing yield spreads,” they have now halted adding inflows to spot Bitcoin ETFs and are actively unwinding their existing positions. This is because the current funding rates and basis spreads are too low, Thielen explained.
