Cardano’s ADA faced renewed selling pressure, reaching $0.20 after declining for four consecutive days from September 7 to 10, 2026, before rebounding. Earlier in the move, ADA fell nearly 5% and was reported down 3% over 24 hours near $0.211; a later reading showed a 1.64% 24-hour decline to $0.20. Derivatives activity remained elevated, with $651.78 million in 24-hour futures volume versus $112.29 million on spot markets and open interest of $445.52 million. CoinGlass data showed about $2.06 million in leveraged positions liquidated, including $1.89 million in longs and $174,080 in shorts, a 1,085% long-to-short liquidation imbalance. The selling coincided with expectations of a possible Federal Reserve rate hike and renewed inflation concerns, although August U.S. inflation data matched forecasts, with both consumer and wholesale prices rising 0.4%. Technically, ADA remained above its 20-, 50- and 100-day exponential moving averages in the earlier assessment, but weakening MACD momentum left the token vulnerable. Cardano’s Dijkstra upgrade preparations also advanced through Node 11.2 integration, DijkstraNet testing and Node 11.1.1’s pre-release development.
