Cardano (ADA) Falls Below Critical Price Levels
After surpassing the $0.3 levels in mid-July, the native cryptocurrency of the Cardano blockchain, ADA, briefly rose to $0.36 levels, adding momentum to its value increases. However, the reversal of the upward trend in the crypto market caused ADA to experience a downward momentum in recent weeks.
