Unlike its counterparts, ADA barely registered gains over the past month. The altcoin is currently 88% below its all-time high of $3.10. At press time, ADA was trading at a low of $0.3415 following a 2.85% drop over the past 24 hours. The asset has certainly been stagnant for quite some time.

Acknowledging the same, a prominent analyst, Ali Martinez, said that Cardano investors were entering the depression phase. It isn’t as bearish as it sounds. The analyst links the asset’s current state to one among several emotional phases. Speaking about depression, he noted that extreme pessimism characterizes this stage. This is because many investors give up on the asset’s potential for recovery.

Potential For Recovery And Investment Opportunities

Further noting the bright side, Martinez pointed out that the depression period frequently gives a purchasing opportunity. He suggested that investors keep holding and acquiring ADA instead of selling it now. But will this breakout be enough for it to reach $5?
