Cardano is testing a multi-year support zone as ADA trades near $0.243 to $0.247, a level that has acted as a major pivot since 2021, according to analyst Ali Charts. Over the past seven days, Cardano recorded the strongest stablecoin market cap growth among major blockchain ecosystems at 60%, Messari data shows. The setup places Cardano between technical pressure from declining prices and improving on-chain liquidity signals driven by stablecoin minting activity. ADA recently traded around $0.232, slightly below the monthly channel floor cited by the analyst. Nearly 8 million USDCx were minted on Cardano within two days, Cexplorer data shows, helping lift overall stablecoin liquidity to approximately $54.88 million.
ADA Tests Multi-Year Support Zone Near $0.243
Cardano returned to one of its most closely watched price levels after a prolonged decline from its 2025 highs. Ali Charts noted that ADA is testing the lower boundary of a multi-year trading channel that has shaped price action since 2021. The monthly chart places this floor near $0.247, while the three-day chart shows ADA near $0.243. ADA recently traded around $0.232, placing it slightly below the monthly channel floor cited by the analyst.
On the shorter three-day chart, Ali Charts described $0.243 as a make-or-break level for Cardano. The zone has previously acted as a launchpad for rebounds during earlier market cycles. A daily close below $0.243 would weaken the structure further. In that scenario, the analyst pointed to deeper macro levels near $0.113 and $0.051 as long-term accumulation zones. The yearly low area near $0.10 also stands out as a potential downside target.
Cardano Records 60% Stablecoin Market Cap Growth Over Seven Days
Cardano's stablecoin ecosystem delivered stronger weekly growth than other major chains. Messari data showed that Cardano's stablecoin market cap increased by 60% over seven days. Polygon ranked second with 38.8% growth, followed by HyperEVM, Blast and XDC Network.
Cardano's total stablecoin market cap reached about $54.88 million. USDCx accounts for 45.21% of that market, while USDM controls 26.92%. USDA holds 15.45%, and DJED accounts for roughly 5.93%. Net stablecoin flow for the current epoch reached around $8.55 million. Minting activity stood near $9.57 million, while burns totaled about $1.02 million. These figures show more stablecoin supply entering Cardano than leaving during the measured period.
USDCx Minting Activity Reaches 8 Million Tokens in Two Days
USDCx became the main driver of Cardano's recent stablecoin growth. Data from Cexplorer showed that nearly 8 million USDCx were minted on Cardano within two days. This minting activity helped lift overall stablecoin liquidity and added fresh attention to Cardano's DeFi base. The token's rapid minting activity strengthened its share of the network's stablecoin market and helped push Cardano above other chains in weekly growth rankings.
Cardano's stablecoin market still trails larger ecosystems by overall size. Charles Hoskinson discussed the need for a Tier-1 stablecoin such as USDC or USDT on Cardano. Such an integration could broaden liquidity access and make Cardano more attractive for users who rely on widely used dollar-backed assets. For now, USDCx and other native stablecoins carry much of the network's stablecoin activity.
