Crypto technical analyst, Ali Martinez, citing a chart from on-chain data aggregator Santiment highlighted that roughly 42 addresses holding 1 million to 10 million ADA worth about $1.2 million and $12 million were created since March 21. The increase of whale addresses also led to a surge of 1.7% since March 21.
“The uptick may seem insignificant at first glance, but these whales hold between $1.2 million and $12 million in ADA,” Ali wrote in his tweet.
A day earlier, crypto analytics platform IntoTheBlock revealed that the Cardano network is currently experiencing greater demand from institutions. Data shows that ADA transfers carrying more than $100,000 worth of ADA have increased 50 fold in 2022 alone.
Infact, on March 28, a total of 69.09 billion ADA were transferred in these transactions, marking 99% of the overall ADA volume.
ADA has been on a bullish streak. In the past seven days, ADA has been up 22% and currently trades at $1.19, ranking as the seventh-largest crypto by market cap, ahead of Terra (LUNA) and Solana (SOL).
