The token has now retreated nearly 77% from its 2026 high near $1.00, extending a downtrend that has persisted since mid-May as sellers maintained control after ADA lost the key $0.247 support zone.<\/p>\n<p>ADA price has remained under pressure since the Cardano Foundation cancelled Cardano Summit 2026 on June 1 after a treasury funding proposal failed to secure the required two-thirds majority under the network\u2019s Voltaire governance framework.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal sought 7.8 million ADA from the treasury but received only 65.21% support from Delegated Representatives, falling short of the approval threshold.<\/p>\n<p>The vote arrived amid a larger dispute surrounding a separate 32.9 million ADA treasury request tied to Input Output Global\u2019s research and development budget. With DRep opposition exceeding 80%, concerns have grown over the funding of future network upgrades and ecosystem initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>Cardano price has weakened as its network fundamentals have grown weaker. <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/defillama.com\/chain\/cardano\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Data<\/a> from DefiLlama shows that the total value locked on the Cardano network has fallen to roughly $126 million as liquidity continues migrating toward rival layer-1 and layer-2 ecosystems. The drop also coincided with reduced DeFi activity and slower capital inflows into the network.<\/p>\n<p>Outside the Cardano ecosystem, crypto markets faced renewed selling after geopolitical tensions resurfaced following the collapse of U.S.-Iran peace discussions. At the same time, Bitcoin\u2019s drop below $70,000 support triggered another round of weakness across major altcoins, including ADA.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multi-year support breakdown exposes lower targets<\/h2>\n<p>The weekly chart shows ADA trading beneath the lower boundary of a multi-year range that has acted as support since 2023.

According to CoinGlass liquidation heatmap data, a dense cluster of short liquidations sits between $0.233 and $0.240, with the largest concentration near $0.235.
