Last week, developers working on Cardano (ADA) made significant strides, evidenced by increased development activity on the blockchain. The latest weekly report from the project highlighted the collaborative efforts of various teams. Despite this progress, the price of ADA experienced a downward trend, signaling a bearish turn in its price action.
The development of Cardano is accelerating
The last week has seen a significant increase in ADA's development activity graph. Its development activity contributor count was also high the previous week. Positive updates are implied by the high development, which suggests that more work was done to enhance the blockchain.
The Cardano ecosystem's latest advancements during the last seven days were detailed in Input Output Global's weekly report, which was just published.
First, the NFT capability was upgraded with the release of Lace v.1.11 by the Lace team. The update added numerous new features, including the option to designate the wallet avatar of the user's preferred NFT.
The Mithril team, a subset of ADA's scaling team, recently launched distribution 2418.1 with the goal of addressing memory fragmentation issues. Additionally, the weekly development report provided updated statistics for the Cardano blockchain. Notably, the total number of native tokens on the ADA network reached 10 million. Moreover, the blockchain surpassed 90 million transactions, indicating a positive trajectory in its activity.
The ADA bull market is about to end
As the token's value rose by over 4% over the previous seven days, ADA bulls intervened as developers intensified their efforts last week.
But in the past day, the trend shifted as ADA fell by 1.7%. As of the time of writing, ADA has a market capitalization of more than $16.6 billion and was trading at $0.4676, according to CoinMarketCap.
As the metric rocketed up, the NVT ratio indicated a potential cause for this price adjustment. Any increase in the indicator suggests that an asset is overpriced and could see a drop in price.
ADA's weighted sentiment experienced a decline, signaling prevalent bearish sentiment in the market surrounding the token. Similarly, the MVRV ratio also decreased on May 19th, adding to the bearish indicators.
To assess whether this marked the conclusion of ADA's bullish run. The findings revealed that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) remained relatively stagnant, hovering around the neutral zone.
The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) exhibited a comparable pattern, suggesting that investors might encounter a period of slow movement before ADA's volatility resumes.
