Cardano’s native token has been heating up in this spooky DeFi season, claiming the crown as the top gainer over the last seven days 🖤.

What Sparked This Surge And Where It Heads Next 🌙

ADA clawed its way back from a brutal yearly drop that bottomed out below $0.14 in June. July dragged on with more gloom but early August flipped the script with a sudden jolt of momentum. Whales scooped up over 240 million coins in days, igniting the rally that now has ADA sitting near $0.2014 after an 18 percent weekly climb. The pump ties into Cardano stepping into its Dijkstra era, the first chain to pull core development funds straight from its community treasury.

Bearish Clouds Linger Despite The Glow 🔮

This weekly double digit pop does not guarantee a fresh bull run since the broader market has bled for months. The daily RSI hovering at 70.6 marks the highest since August 2025, pushing ADA into overbought zones that often precede a dip. Readings under 30 usually scream buy opportunities instead.
According to BSCN the latest move could tie to that roadmap update.
Rand Group highlighted the strength, noting a reclaim of $0.25 might unlock full bullish reversal.
Sjuul from AltCryptoGems called the chart structure absolutely bullish after a string of fresh highs and one of the cleanest looks among major caps.
Sssebi pointed out the break above the 20 week MA on the ADA BTC pair for the first time since October 2025, setups that previously fueled 50 to 200 percent runs.

Bitcoin active addresses hit roughly 0.98 million a day on July 31, marking the highest daily count since December 2024 after attackers swept wallets with seeds from defective Coldcard firmware 🖤.
Glassnode shared the data on August 6 and labeled the jump “fear-driven on-chain activity.” The analytics firm added that “holders migrating seeds and moving funds to alternative custody reflects an operational security response, not a change in market conviction.”

Following the Coldcard firmware exploit, the number of active Bitcoin addresses surged to 0.98M/day, the highest since December 2024.

Exchange Balances Rise By 22,135 BTC 🌑

Coin Metrics logged 967,546 active addresses that day, 54% above the July average of 627,061. The last higher reading came in at 985,635 on December 10, 2024. Bitcoin held on exchanges climbed from 2,654,863 on July 29 to 2,676,998 on August 3, adding 22,135 coins or 0.83%. The balance dipped to 2,667,058 by August 5, leaving roughly 12,200 of those coins on exchanges. Transaction counts moved lower instead. The network handled 607,581 transactions on July 31, under the July average of 656,321, while active addresses sat 54% above their monthly mean. Coin Metrics recorded 730,433 active addresses on August 5, about 16% over the July average and the seventh straight day above it 🕷️.

Losses Top 100 Million In The Sweep 🦇

Coinkite revealed that seeds made on Mk2 and Mk3 firmware version 4.0.1 from March 2021 through version 4.1.9 carried weakened randomness. Seeds on Mk4, Mk5, and Q devices before the patched releases hold about 72 bits of entropy against the 128 bits intended. Fixed firmware arrived as version 4.2.0 for Mk2 and Mk3, 5.6.0 for Mk4 and Mk5, plus 1.5.0Q for Q. Seeds built with at least 50 fair independent private dice rolls pulled enough entropy from the dice alone while a strong unique BIP-39 passphrase forces attackers to crack that too 🔪. A passphrase fails to repair the affected seed so users must migrate anyway since the patch leaves existing seeds untouched. The opening sweep pulled 594.5 BTC across 1,324 UTXOs from about 500 single-signature addresses in four consecutive blocks on July 30. Median loss per victim was 0.41 BTC with the largest single hit at 29.9 BTC. Galaxy Research tallies 1,596 BTC confirmed stolen from about 7,300 addresses rising to 2,055 BTC once suspected sweeps join the count. The confirmed haul crossed 100 million last week. Santiment tracked 0.58 bullish comments for every bearish one across social channels, the lowest positive-to-negative ratio since tracking began 💀. Coinkite urged every owner who generated a seed on affected firmware to shift funds to a new seed on patched hardware. Bitcoin traded at 64,606 on August 6 🌙.

PEPE just witnessed a huge net exchange outflow of 4.54 trillion tokens in a single day marking the meme coin’s biggest daily drain from platforms since November 14 2024. 🖤 Fewer tokens sitting on exchanges signals reduced immediate selling pressure.

Tokens Escape The Platforms 🌑

According to the latest findings by Santiment PEPE has been trading mostly sideways over the past two months. Recent market chatter has centered on meme coin rotation along with weak funding and support level testing instead of any major project specific catalyst. The analytics firm explained that when a relatively quiet meme coin sees tokens leave exchanges while trader interest stays muted bullish holders may view it as supply shifting into stronger hands before attention returns.

PEPE Stays Strong Among ETH Memes 🔮

Additionally PEPE continues to rank among Ethereum’s largest meme coins by holder count according to data cited by BSCN. 571613 wallet addresses currently hold the token. It trails just behind Shiba Inu which happens to be the largest meme coin on Ethereum by holder count. In fact SHIB is held by 1678653 unique wallet addresses. Institutional interest has also emerged. Canary Capital filed a Form S-1 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a spot ETF linked to the asset in April. The proposed fund called the Canary PEPE ETF would track the token’s live market price. The filing stated “PEPE has no identified blockchain based utility beyond its branding and association with meme culture and its market value is primarily driven by cultural relevance and online community sentiment. There is no assurance that interest in or demand for PEPE will continue to grow or be sustained.” Some market watchers see more upside ahead. Crypto analyst Rafaela Rigo for instance projected that the asset could deliver a 3x to 5x return in the next bull cycle. The trader marked a target near $0.0000143 which represents a gain of about 400% from the current level of $0.0000028.

Meme Coins And Their Risky Depths 💀

Meme coins meanwhile continue to divide opinion across the crypto market. Last month veteran crypto trader Ogle warned that these assets with limited liquidity can unravel within minutes if just a handful of large holders decide to sell. Citing the recent price action in CASHCAT Ogle said many traders often mistake unrealized gains for locked in profits. He added that thin liquidity concentrated ownership and leveraged trading can quickly turn sharp rallies into steep declines particularly after perpetual futures listings amplify volatility and trigger liquidations. 🌙🕸️🦇💜👁️
