In the bearish scenario, a prolonged consolidation phase was predicted for ADA, with participants having to wait until 2024 for a breakout to the upside. This narrative was based on historical readings. Recall that the Covid-19 pandemic hit the market around the same time, preventing ADA from gaining bull strength.
On the other hand, the bullish idea suggested a breakout by December by ruling out the impact of unforeseen events like the Covid-19.

Whales giving conflicting signals
It made sense to examine other on-chain indicators to understand if they were supportive of ADA’s rally any time soon. The whale supply was a reliable tool in this regard.
According to Santiment, mixed signals were given by whale investors. While the cohort holding between 1,000-1 million ADA coins steadily added to their stacks in the last month, substantial outflows were seen from the group storing between 1 million-10 million coins.
Therefore, it was difficult to determine with conviction the impact whale transactions had on ADA’s price movement.
