【Coin Realm】2025 has not been favorable for Cardano. ADA experienced a decline exceeding 60%, and while the entire market has been adjusting, Cardano also faces regulatory setbacks such as the failure of the CLARITY Act. However, the ecosystem has a different perspective on next year.
From a technical perspective, major events are indeed accumulating. Midnight, the privacy sidechain, is about to launch, and its native token NIGHT briefly surpassed a $1 billion market cap upon issuance, though it has since pulled back. This decline is believed to be a fluctuation rather than a trend reversal.
The next major highlight will be core network upgrades like Ouroboros Leios, along with the integration of the Bitcoin DeFi ecosystem and infrastructure optimization. According to plans, these moves should provide new growth drivers for NIGHT and the entire ecosystem.
Of course, short-term price volatility is inevitable, but ecosystem participants believe that long-term fundamentals are the key to success or failure. The emergence of structural challenges is instead interpreted as a signal of market clearing and paving the way for healthier growth. Whether this is the case or excessive optimism will be revealed in 2026.
