Supply Dynamics

Cardano has a hard-capped maximum supply of 45 billion ADA. Approximately 36.1 billion ADA are currently in circulation, representing about 80% of the total supply. The remaining ADA is gradually released through staking rewards. This controlled emission means ADA inflation is predictable and declining over time.

Trading Volume Analysis

ADA maintains one of the highest 24-hour trading volumes among Layer-1 cryptocurrencies outside of Ethereum and Bitcoin. Daily volumes consistently range between $300 million and $500 million. ADA trades on over 1,696 active markets globally as of 2026.

Institutional Interest

Recent on-chain data shows whale wallets holding at least 10 million ADA reached a four-month high of 424 in early April 2026. This accumulation pattern at lower price levels is often interpreted as a bullish longer-term signal.
