Cardano whale wallets rise 5.2% to 424, 4-month high

Cardano whale wallets are rising. Addresses holding 10M+ ADA climbed 5.2% in nine weeks to 424, a 4‑month high since December 6.

Santiment tracks the cohort’s jump on-chain. ADA’s market value is up 11% since the February 5 bottom, while it still moves with other altcoins in 2026 according to Santiment.

The series is volatile. A sharp drop hit at the end of January during the market crash, per the same chart from Santiment.

Dogecoin whales also acted. They net bought 500M DOGE last week, during a Bollinger Bands squeeze Ali Martinez reports. NewsBTC flagged the squeeze setup earlier in this analysis.
