It is hovering at its lowest point since May 6.<\/p>\n<p>On-chain metrics show that Cardano may be on the verge of more downside. Santiment data shows its social dominance score has moved to 0.792%, down from 1.8% in May. This metric means that fewer people are discussing Cardano on social media platforms like X and Reddit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another metric shows that the daily active addresses have fallen in the past few weeks. There were 21,565 addresses on Friday, down from over 60,500 in May, a sign that fewer people are interacting with it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>Further, the closely watched mean dollar invested age (MDIA) has plunged, a sign that old coins are being moved. The 365-day MDIA figure has tumbled to minus 425, down from 62 in September last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The network realized profit\/loss has moved negative to the negative zone, signaling that buyers have started to capitulate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the Market Value to Realized Value or MVRV ratio has turned negative, signaling that Cardano has become a bargain. However, the MVRV ratio of minus 0.019, is higher than it was in April when the coin bounced back.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14386752\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" ><\/source><\/p>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">ADA on-chain metrics | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/app.santiment.net\/charts\/myQW3DtJ__sCl\" target=\"_blank\">Santiment<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Apart from on-chain metrics, more data shows that Cardano\u2019s ecosystem is not doing well. <\/p>\n<p>The total value locked in its decentralized finance ecosystem has dropped to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/cardano\" target=\"_blank\">$387 million<\/a>, while the total supply of stablecoins is just $30 million. <\/p>\n<p>These metrics are much lower than Sonic and Unichain, which launched earlier this year.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cardano price technical analysis<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14386751\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" ><\/source><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1988\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1749317218_144_Cardano-price-faces-downside-risk-amid-weak-network-activity.png\" alt=\"Cardano price\">\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">ADA price chart | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The daily chart shows that the Cardano price has plunged from $1.317 in December to $0.66 today. It has moved below the descending trendline that connects the highest swings since December.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, it formed a small double-top pattern at $0.845, and has moved below its neckline at $0.713, its lowest point on May 19.<\/p>\n<p>It has also moved below the 50-day and 200-day Weighted Moving Averages. Therefore, the coin will likely continue falling as sellers target the next key support at $0.513, its lowest point in April, down by 23% from the current level.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardano price has moved into a local bear market and is at risk of further downside as network activity and social dominance wane.
