Dan Gambardello, a Cardano 
$1 analyst, noted that ADA‘s rise to a three-year high has positively influenced skeptics. The increase in ADA’s price has drawn attention to the project, prompting critics to monitor it closely.
Impacts of ADA Price Surge
According to Gambardello, ADA’s price surged from $0.32 to $1.30 over the past month, marking a 306% increase. This surge indicates that Cardano can no longer be overlooked by major investors.
“The sudden Cardano move from .32 to $1.30 woke a lot of people up. Major influencers quickly realized they can’t continue negative coverage. They know they’d look silly through the bull market as ADA keeps pumping. Now they’re bullish because they’ve fallen in line.” — Dan Gambardello
Gambardello expressed that due to this growth, major influencers can no longer maintain negative views about the asset. He argued that if the price continues to rise, critics will likely change their attitudes.
Expectations and Challenges Within the Project
Despite facing various challenges in recent years, Cardano continues to pursue technological innovations. An alert from the Cardano Foundation has raised questions about the organization’s effectiveness.
Allegations of the Foundation working inconsistently with Input Output Global (IOG) and other founders create uncertainty regarding the future of the project’s decentralization efforts. However, technological advancements such as the Hydra test and scalability improvements maintain positive expectations for ADA’s future.
Analysts like Dan Gambardello believe that ADA’s technological progress will lead to a bright future. Despite the challenges faced, the price still holds the potential to rise to $2 in the future.
The sudden price increase in ADA has strengthened both its supporters and confidence in the project. While some internal issues raise concerns about its sustainability, technological innovations help alleviate some of these worries.
