important notes
- Cardano’s Charles Hoskinson will participate in a $200 million round backing American Bitcoin, a mining and AI infrastructure company with ties to the Trump family.
- ADA price fell 2% before stabilizing above $0.50 due to weak demand, lower trading volumes, and reduced derivatives activity.
- Despite the short-term weakness, positioning data shows that traders are defending the $0.50 support with a moderately bullish long/short ratio.
Cardano fell 2% on Saturday, November 15th, but stabilized just above the $0.50 level as investors absorbed the news of Charles Hoskinson’s strategic participation in American Bitcoin’s latest $200 million funding round. Hoskinson highlighted the company’s dual focus on large-scale Bitcoin mining and advanced AI infrastructure as the core rationale behind the investment. Writing on Saturday’s X, Hoskinson highlighted these factors, saying the company is positioned to generate significant long-term revenue streams.
Mining has become a good business thanks to AI. Bitcoin mining pays for data centers and infrastructure, but AI absorbs that in 3-5 years. This team will figure it out and make good money https://t.co/cY7k9GQVoc

American Bitcoin, co-led by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., secured $220 million in a pre-IPO round in July, with Solari Capital contributing more than $100 million. The latest round extended that trajectory, bringing in Hoskinson alongside Grant Cardone and Peter Diamandis.
Despite Anthony Scaramucci’s public break with Donald Trump, his son AJ Scaramucci has structured his stake in Solari to reflect how capital flows are increasingly decoupled from political narratives and centered around hard asset accumulation.

Still, ADA’s short-term reaction tilted toward the negative, according to Coinglass data. Cardano fell to 14th place in intraday demand, with trading volume down 41% to $994 million. Open interest decreased 3% to $635 million, with approximately $20 million in ADA futures positions closed in 24 hours. The decline reflects traders reducing exposure amid volatility surrounding the U.S. political news cycle and Trump-related rhetoric surrounding U.S. Bitcoin procurement.
However, a significant number of Cardano traders are working to avoid a decisive break below the crucial $0.50 support level. ADA’s long-short ratio of 1.08 suggests that new long covering positions may outweigh new short exposures on Saturday, indicating a price floor formation.
Cardano Price Prediction: Can ADA sustain $0.50 support amid bearish momentum?
ADA is trading at $0.5075 after a week of declines that pushed the price towards the low end of its mid-November range.
The daily chart shows that ADA is firmly below the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages of $0.6703, $0.7658, and $0.7344, respectively, reinforcing the established downtrend. Until ADA returns to at least its 50-day average, any upside moves will remain structurally limited.
Parabolic SAR dots continue to print above the daily candlesticks, confirming sustained downward pressure as sellers maintain control.
Cardano (ADA) Price Analysis |Source: TradingView
The RSI of 34.23 is near the oversold region but has not yet formed a bullish divergence, suggesting that the price may move sideways or test lower support levels before a rebound attempt intensifies. BBP’s -0.0899 indicates that bearish pressure is still prevailing and countering any attempt at a pullback.
The market structure provides immediate support at $0.50, but there is a deeper pocket of liquidity around $0.47 if momentum weakens further. If the day closes below $0.50, ADA could see a deeper retracement towards $0.45.
However, if the bulls sustain the current levels and regain $0.53, ADA could attempt a recovery towards its 50-day average of $0.60.
For now, ADA is trading in a fragile zone where sentiment, macro narrative, and positioning flows are concentrated. Traders seem determined to stick to the psychological floor of $0.50, but absent new volume or a change in trend indicators, the upside outlook remains uncertain.
