Cardano (ADA) could be primed for a massive 125% near-term rally to new multi-year highs above $2.0 as whale buying surges, a widely followed crypto analyst said on Wednesday.

Per @ali_charts, ADA’s price action over the past few weeks suggests a move higher to $2.20 is possible in the coming weeks, according to the Fibonacci extension analysis.

And the perfect storm could be brewing to launch the Cardano price higher – US President Donald Trump is set to announce plans for his crypto strategic reserve on Friday, and the President said on Sunday that he plans to include Cardano.

That news triggered a more than 70% price jump for the crypto on Sunday. And while ADA has since fallen back to around $0.96, its clearly broken its multi-week downtrend.

Chart analysis thus suggests a strong likelihood of a retest of December highs in the $1.30 area.

But crypto reserve hype could send ADA substantially higher. And whales have been pre-empting the move.

In a separate tweet, @ali_charts noted a surge of whale ADA buying, with whales scooping up a massive 420 million tokens in just 24 hours.

Whales are often viewed as “smart money” in crypto, given they oftentimes the market well by buying low and selling high.

How High Can Cardano Go in 2025?

Macro conditions remain too difficult and liquidity too sparse for there to be an alt-coin season like 2021 this year.

However, traders who pick coins with strong narratives and capital rotation could still bag massive gains.

And Cardano definitely has strong narratives this year; its possible inclusion in a crypto reserve, likely upcoming ETF launches, its transition to becoming the main DeFi side-chain for Bitcoin and even an outside possibility that the US Treasury select Cardano as its chosen blockchain to run payments on top of.

While it would probably take a 2020/2021-style liquidity boom to see Cardano surge 10x higher from current levels, a more than 3x gain back to its 2021 highs above $3.0 are certainly possible this year.

Other major cryptos set to be included in the crypto reserve like Solana could see similar upside.

If Solana is set to boom in 2025, high beta leading protocols in its ecosystem are likely to see even bigger upside.

Traders looking for 10x+ gains this year might want to check out new Solana layer-2 scaling protocol Solaxy (SOLX), which has been making waves in the past few weeks.

Solaxy (SOLX) – 2025’s Best Crypto Launch?

Solaxy (SOLX) represents Solana’s inaugural Layer-2 blockchain solution, designed to alleviate network congestion through off-chain transaction processing and rollup technology.

Launched in December 2024, its presale has raised over $25 million by March 2025, reflecting strong investor interest in enhancing Solana’s transaction speed and cost-efficiency.

SOLX token facilitates network fees, staking (currently offering a 179% APY) and a bridge between Solana and Ethereum, broadening its utility.

Audited by Coinsult and SolidProof, the project ensures security and transparency, with 10% of its 138 billion token supply allocated for liquidity following the Token Generation Event (TGE).

Solaxy’s potential for a tenfold increase in 2025 stems from Solana’s robust ecosystem—$12 billion in TVL and a projected 22% market share—combined with growing demand for scalability solutions.

A listing on prominent exchanges could further propel its value, making Solaxy a compelling opportunity for early investors.
