- The trend still points downPrice is below the 50-day average and below the 200-day; the two are 33.72% apart.

What does the Cardano data show?
1. Whale positioning is close to balanced
50% of active large-wallet money on Cardano is positioned long right now: $9.0 M long against $9.1 M short, spread over 91 wallets on Hyperliquid. With the book close to even, whale positioning is not telling you much here — the useful reads are the chart and the derivatives below. These are open positions read from the chain, not opinions, and they change daily.
2. The trend still points down
Price trades below its 50-day average and below its 200-day, with the two averages 33.72% apart. Market structure is still making higher highs and higher lows. The most recent daily candle pattern is three white soldiers. RSI (14) is 46.1.
3. Leverage is paying up to stay positioned
Perpetual funding runs at 56.84% annualised, so shorts are paying longs to keep their positions open. Funding is a crowding tax: the more one-sided the book, the more it costs to stay on that side, and the more likely the weakest hands there get squeezed out. Open interest stands at $24.2 M — that is the size of the leveraged book that has to be closed eventually.

Frequently asked questions
What is the latest news on Cardano?
The most recent development we recorded is: Whale positioning is close to balanced (2026-07-25). This page is a dated log computed from market data rather than a press feed — every entry is a measurement with the date it happened.
How often is the Cardano page updated?
Once a day: it is recomputed after the daily candle closes, and the time of the last update is printed at the top of the page. Log entries are dated by the day the event happened, not the day we published it.
Where does the Cardano data on this page come from?
From Hyperliquid directly: daily candles, open interest, funding and the on-chain positions of active large wallets. Nothing here is copied from another site's article, and no language model writes the text — the wording is generated from the numbers by fixed rules.
Is this Cardano page investment advice?
No. It is an algorithmic summary of measured market data from Hyperliquid — price moves, positioning, derivatives and our own model. It is not investment advice and past performance does not guarantee future results.
