Cardano (ADA) became the center of attention in the Web3 space courtesy of its dwindling market showings that saw it drop drastically over the past few days.
Per Cardano’s data on Coincodex, the coin asset is changing hands at roughly $0.61, having dropped by about 4.36% in the past 24 hours.
Other significant statistics revealed that ADA has declined by 15.4% in the past week, and sentiment shifted towards a bearish outlook. Nevertheless, the coin is still trading above the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), radiating a glimmer of hope for ADA amid the market declines.

According to the released data, no fewer than 43% of ADA Investors are currently recording losses, as against 57% still privileged to be registering profits.
Furthermore, the analytical platform revealed that only 34% of ADA’s total supply is held by whale investors. Also, 33% of the coin holders have held on to the token for less than a year.

CoinGecko recently has published the list of the top 20 most popular blockchain ecosystems on its platform.
