Cardano's ADA, after experiencing a year of extreme volatility, has fallen about 60% by the end of 2025, failing to sustain the initial [surge] after the 2024 US elections. AI predictions for 2026 present a mixed outlook, ranging from a potential bearish slide to $0.10-$0.15 to a more likely long-term consolidation between $0.30 and $0.80. Analysts say that a true bullish recovery (possibly targeting $2.00 or higher) depends on genuine ecosystem traction and usage, rather than just speculation.
