signals suggesting a potential price recovery for the altcoin. Related

Cardano Retests Key Macro Support On Tuesday, Cardano dropped 3% to retest a 
crucial macro support level. The altcoin has been trading between $0.25-$0.30 
since the early February market crash, failing to break out of the range’s 
upper boundary over the past two months. ADA’s price has retraced to the lower 
levels of its one-month accumulation zone, hovering between $0.25-$0.27 during 
recent market volatility. Market observer Ali Martinez pointed out that the 
cryptocurrency has been retesting a key multi-year level amid this 
performance. According to the post, Cardano is retesting the $0.25 area, a 
major support zone since 2022, in the weekly timeframe. This level marked the 
bottom of the previous bear market and served as a key area at the start of 
the latest bull run. As Martinez noted, the last two times ADA traded around 
and held this level, back in 2023, it bounced 85% and 200%. The first bounce 
led to a retest of the $0.46 area, while the second drove the price toward the 
$0.80 level between October 2023 and March 2024. The analyst also highlighted 
that ADA recently printed a buy signal, signaling a potential recovery soon. 
“The TD Sequential indicator has flashed a ‘black 9’ on the weekly chart, 
suggesting the recent downtrend has exhausted,” he wrote, adding that this 
setup typically anticipates one to four weeks of expansion. As a result, ADA 
could target $0.32-$0.37 by late April if it holds above its current price 
levels. “We’ve survived the 6-month grind; now we watch for a potential price 
recovery,” Martinez asserted. ADA Flashes Bottom Signals Adding to the 
momentum, analytics firm Santiment has underscored multiple on-chain and 
derivative signals that could indicate a reversal is nearby for Cardano. 
According to the post, Cardano&#8217;s average active wallets have experienced a 43% 
negative return on their investments over the past year, suggesting a price 
rebound is more likely than usual. Despite the 71% price decline since 
September, this extremely negative MVRV value generally indicates that ADA is 
in an “opportunity” or “buy” zone, Santiment affirmed, further explaining that 
when average returns are significantly negative, it signals an impending 
turnaround: On a zero-sum game, when average returns are severely negative, 
this is an indication of a looming turnaround with coins always averaging 0% 
on MVRV&#8217;s (average trading returns) across any timeframe. So when other 
traders are in severe pain, key stakeholders and professional traders are 
intrigued by this due to the lowered risk of buying or adding on to their 
positions. In addition, the firm stated that Cardano’s funding rate on Binance 
is experiencing the largest imbalance toward shorts since June 2023, 
suggesting traders are heavily inclined toward further downside. Related

In his 2026 annual shareholder letter, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink laid out an 
ambitious outlook for the firm’s presence in digital assets, forecasting that 
BlackRock’s crypto business — and the broader market — could be generating 
roughly $500 million in annual revenue within the next five years. 
Tokenization Will ‘Update The Plumbing’ Of Finance As reported by Forbes, 
BlackRock has positioned itself as a market leader in Bitcoin (BTC), handling 
about 800,000 BTC worth approximately $55 billion for its clients through its 
iShares Bitcoin Trust exchange-traded fund (ETF). Beyond Bitcoin exposure, 
BlackRock has expanded into tokenized funds: its USD Institutional Digital 
Liquidity Fund, known as BUIDL, became the world’s largest tokenized fund last 
year after surpassing $2 billion in assets under management (AuM). Related

Ban Stablecoin Rewards Fink singled out tokenized products and stablecoin 
operations as major pillars of the firm’s strategy, disclosing that BlackRock 
manages $65 billion of stablecoin reserves and nearly $80 billion of digital- 
asset exchange-traded products (ETPs). Those figures, the executive said, 
reflect how BlackRock has moved quickly to establish institutional-quality 
offerings in the digital markets. Additionally, the CEO argued that 
tokenization has the potential to “update the plumbing of the financial 
system,” broadening access to investments in the same way the internet 
expanded commerce in the 1990s. BlackRock CEO Warns US Risks Losing Crypto 
Lead Citing research from Juniper, Fink noted that about half the world’s 
population already carries a digital wallet on their phone, and suggested that 
those same wallets could one day be used to invest in diversified portfolios 
as easily as sending a payment. Fink painted tokenization as a generational 
opportunity and warned of strategic risk if the US falls behind. Last year, he 
urged faster adoption of digitization and tokenization, arguing that other 
nations could overtake the US if it lags. Related Reading: Bitcoin Expert 
Predicts ‘Golden Entry Window’ For Next Bull Market In October 2026 At the 
same time, the BlackRock CEO pushed back on skeptics like Warren Buffett who 
dub Bitcoin “worthless,” characterizing the asset instead as one that people 
hold for reasons tied to insecurity. “You own bitcoin because you’re 
frightened of your physical security. You own it because you’re frightened of 
your financial security,” he wrote in its shareholders letter, adding that a 
longer-term rationale for holding Bitcoin is protection against the debasement 
of financial assets driven by fiscal deficits. At the time of writing, Bitcoin 
was trading at $69,420, down 2% over the last 24 hours and down 7% over the 
last seven days, amid a broader market sell-off on Tuesday. This follows last 
week&#8217;s rejection at the $76,000 resistance level, which the cryptocurrency 
failed to surpass. Featured image from the Wall Street Journal, chart from
