Cardano’s total value locked (TVL) was perhaps one of the best indicators that the network was headed in the right direction. The TVL has been growing aggressively since the start of 2023 to its current level at around $156.62 million.
A $107 million recovery compared to its lowest level in the last four months. This was also Cardano’s largest TVL bounce back since its decline commenced in March 2022.

Such growth denoted the return of confidence into the Cardano ecosystem.

ADA traded at $0.42 at press time after a 13% upside in the last seven days. The latest rally was built on the bullish momentum that has prevailed since the start of 2023. At the time of writing, the altcoin was trading at a 79% premium on a year-to-date (YTD) basis.

The other whale addresses have slowed down their accumulation since then but the price continued rallying. This might be due to incoming retail demand. Although ADA’s robust performance might be disrupted by short-term sell pressure, ADA and Cardano prospects remain favorable.
