He wrote: “A US Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA.

Cardano’s Open Interest (OI) further supports the bullish outlook. Coinglass’s data shows that the futures’ OI in ADA at exchanges rose from $536 million on Saturday to $1.18 billion on Sunday, the highest level since early February. An increasing OI represents new or additional money entering the market and new buying, which suggests a rally ahead in the ADA price.
