The amount of ADA accumulated by large investors has been revealed

Large holders of Cardano cryptocurrency, storing between 100,000 and 100 million $ADA, have added 819.14 million coins to their holdings over the past six months, worth a total of $213.9 million. This represents 1.6% of the total $ADA supply.

In August last year, the total assets of large $ADA holders, the so-called “whales,” were estimated at $24.54 billion. That figure has now increased to $25.35 billion. This means whales now control 68.44% of the total circulating token supply. Six months ago, this показатель stood at 66.84%, analysts at Santiment noted.

New altcoin purchases are occurring amid a 71% decline in $ADA’s price over the past six months — from $0.90 to $0.26. Over the last three months, Cardano has fallen by 20%, and its market capitalization currently stands at $9.98 billion. However, this has not changed the bullish sentiment of large holders — they viewed the price drop as a good buying opportunity, according to Santiment experts.

The accumulation of coins indicates whales’ confidence in Cardano’s long-term growth prospects and the temporary nature of the price decline. Such behavior is typical of experienced market participants who actively buy crypto assets during downturns when weaker players exit the market. This may be a positive signal for $ADA, as major holders remain confident in a price recovery and improving market conditions, analysts believe.

Earlier, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson promised that the Midnight sidechain, designed to enhance blockchain privacy, would expand the Cardano ecosystem tenfold, while the Leios and Hydra upgrades would reduce transaction fees and increase network throughput. Recently, Bits.media published its own forecast for Cardano’s prospects in 2026.
