- South Korean Bithumb announces support for Cardano coin.
- ADA/USD gains nearly 5% on daily basis, the only growing coin from top-10.
Cardano (ADA) has recovered from the low reached at $0.1443 on Wednesday amid global cryptocurrency carnage. The coin touched $0.1754 during early Asian hours, but could not sustain gains as the upside momentum faded away. Cardano is the seventh biggest cryptocurrency by market value, according to CoinMarketCap, with current capitalization $4.5B. Its daily trading volume spiked significantly from $99M to $166M, emphasizing growing interest towards the coin.
Cardano is the only coin in green from top-ten, with positive momentum inspired by Korean bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb decision to add ADA to the list of tradable instruments. Currently, over 40% of Cardano’s trading volumes are processed by Upbit, with ADA/KRW being the most popular pair.
