Following weeks of consolidation, Cardano whales sprang into action in late October, scooping up 80 million ADA worth about $28 million. The increased accumulation appears to be driving ADA’s price breakout.
According to on-chain analytics provider Santiment, wallets holding between 1 million and 100 million ADA grew their holdings from 5.62 billion to 5.7 billion ADA in the past 10 days.
The added 80 million ADA at current prices equates to a nearly $28 million spending spree by these major players. The coordinated purchasing fueled ADA’s rise above key resistance around $0.30.

Whale activity aligns with Cardano Summit
This whale activity aligned with last week’s high-profile Cardano Summit event held in Dubai. The summit generated a surge in social media and investor interest in ADA.
According to Santiment, Cardano’s social dominance spiked to 1.72% on November 7th, a 3-month high. The social dominance figure is its share of discussions compared to top crypto assets. The elevated social volume indicates heightened community engagement.
