Just-In: USDC Issuer Circle Allegedly In Talks With Ripple & Coinbase For Potential Sale

Cardano (ADA) is showing signs of life despite dropping 3% in the past 24 hours as traders weigh the possibility of a broader recovery. Technical indicators like BBTrend and DMI are flashing mixed signals, hinting that momentum may be fading after a brief surge.

ADA’s BBTrend has flipped into negative territory, while its DMI suggests bulls are gaining ground but haven’t fully taken control. With ADA hovering just above key support levels, the next few sessions will be crucial in determining whether this rally has legs or if another correction is around the corner.

ADA BBTrend Is Fading After Reaching Levels Above 5 Yesterday

Cardano’s BBTrend indicator has flipped into negative territory, currently sitting at -0.02 after reaching a positive peak of 5.28 just a day earlier.

This sharp reversal highlights a potential shift in market sentiment, suggesting that bullish momentum may be losing strength.

The abrupt drop adds to growing concerns among ADA holders, especially with the broader altcoin market showing signs of weakness.

The BBTrend (Bull and Bear Trend) indicator measures the strength and direction of a price trend. Values above +1 typically indicate a strong bullish trend, while readings below -1 signal a strong bearish trend.

A value near zero, like the current -0.02, suggests indecision or a possible trend reversal.

For Cardano, this neutral-to-negative reading could mean that upward momentum is fading, increasing the risk of further downside if selling pressure builds in the coming sessions.

Cardano DMI Shows Buyers Are Almost Taking Control

Cardano’s DMI (Directional Movement Index) chart shows that its ADX, which measures trend strength, has dropped to 34.29 from 43.41 yesterday.

While this indicates that the current trend is weakening, the ADX is still well above the key 25 threshold, meaning the market remains in a strong directional move.

The shift suggests that although momentum is cooling, the currently bearish trend hasn’t lost control just yet.

The ADX is part of the DMI system, which includes the +DI (positive directional index) and -DI (negative directional index).

The +DI has climbed from 4.68 to 19.19, showing growing bullish interest, while the -DI has sharply dropped from 44.92 to 22.18. This narrowing gap hints at a potential trend reversal or at least a slowing of bearish momentum.

However, since -DI is still slightly above +DI and ADX remains elevated, ADA is technically still in a downtrend — though bulls may be starting to regain some ground.

Is Cardano Getting Ready For A Recovery?

Cardano price is currently attempting a recovery after dipping below the $0.52 mark, a key support level in recent weeks. If buyers manage to confirm their strength and sustain upward momentum, ADA could first test resistance at $0.629.

A successful breakout above that could open the path toward $0.70, and if bullish pressure continues, a further rally to $0.77 may be on the table — levels not seen since early 2024.

However, if ADA fails to hold its current ground and bearish momentum returns, the token risks sliding back below $0.52.

A move toward $0.51 would be the first critical test, and losing that level could push Cardano below the $0.50 threshold for the first time since November 2024.

Yesterday, El Salvador’s National Commission of Digital Assets (CNAD) met with staff members from the SEC’s Crypto Task Force. They sketched out plans for a cross-border “regulatory sandbox” for crypto.

This plan involves two pilot programs, each costing less than $10,000, where a US-based broker would partner with a Salvadoran tokenization firm. The plan is tailored to give data on the Task Force’s top regulatory priorities.

Will El Salvador Partner with The SEC?

The SEC’s meeting with CNAD discussed plans for El Salvador, as recorded in a log on the Commission’s site. In the meeting, the parties explicitly discussed priorities in line with Commissioner Hester Peirce’s initial statement announcing the Crypto Task Force.

Of four stated goals, the notion of a “cross-border sandbox” was listed first.

“This initiative offers the SEC Crypto Task Force a live, real-world case study to evaluate streamlined regulatory approaches for digital assets—an opportunity to observe and refine frameworks that could enhance US market innovation. A key lesson from El Salvador’s experience is the transformative potential of tokenization, particularly in real estate,” it claimed.

This sandbox will take the form of a pilot program with two scenarios, each costing $10,000 or less.

In Scenario 1, a US-based real estate broker will partner with a Salvadoran tokenization firm. They will enable investors to purchase tokenized shares of a piece of property.

Scenario 2 tests these firms’ ability to raise capital by selling tokenized shares, using this capital to actually launch a project. It doesn’t specify the project in question, but this scenario doesn’t mention real estate in any capacity.

Both these endeavors will give the SEC valuable data on joint business ventures in El Salvador.

Representatives from El Salvador and the SEC were joined by Erica Perkin, a lawyer specializing in digital asset consulting, and Heather Shemilt, a former partner at Goldman Sachs.

According to the document, participants discussed these proposals, but it doesn’t seem like they actually reached a binding agreement.

The Task Force only sent some of its staff to this meeting, no Commissioners were actually present. Still, this partnership with El Salvador could give the SEC a lot of useful insights.

This plan offers a low-cost way to gather hard data on half of the Task Force’s highest priorities, which seems like a valuable opportunity.
