Core Insights - Solana continues to lead in blockchain usage, particularly in decentralized exchange (DEX) activity, marking its 16th consecutive week as the leader in DEX volume [2] - Cardano experienced a 5% price increase, but this is viewed as a temporary relief rather than a sign of recovery, with underlying structural weaknesses still present [12][14] Group 1: Solana's Performance - Solana's dominance in DEX activity is highlighted, with significant investor interest following Forward Industries Inc.'s update on its Solana-focused treasury strategy [2] - Forward Industries holds over 6.9 million SOL, making it the largest corporate Solana treasury, with accumulation supported by a $1.65 billion private placement [3] - The company's validator operations generate a gross annual percentage yield (APY) between 6.82% and 7.01% before fees [5] Group 2: Solana's Price Action - Despite a 3% rebound, Solana's price struggles with heavy resistance, failing to break the $137–$141 resistance band, which is reinforced by the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement [8] - The broader trend remains defined by a falling diagonal from November's highs, with price movements lacking volume and quickly reversing [8] - A hold above $133 is crucial for a potential breakout, while a drop below this level could expose lower price points of $128 and possibly $122 [11] Group 3: Cardano's Price Action - Cardano's recent 5% rise towards $0.43 is seen as a temporary bounce, halting a steep downtrend but lacking structural strength for a sustained recovery [14] - The price remains below key moving averages, with resistance levels at $0.44 and $0.51, indicating ongoing challenges in breaking these zones [15] - Without a weekly close above $0.51, the market structure continues to favor sellers, with potential declines towards $0.34 and $0.28 if the $0.40 support is lost [16][17]
