Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: Cardano Rockets 10,654% in Derivatives Market Volume, Hidden Price Signal? Original Link: Cardano is seeing an increase in volumes in the derivatives market, with the market now watching for what comes next for ADA’s price.

According to market data, Cardano has increased 10,654.62% in futures volume on a major crypto derivatives exchange, reaching $40.04 million.

This suggests increased activity in the derivatives market, given the prominence of major crypto derivatives exchanges. This coincides with Cardano approaching a key milestone in the derivative markets.

This week, a leading derivatives marketplace revealed plans to include Cardano futures in its lineup come Feb. 9, pending regulatory review.

Market participants will have the choice to trade both micro-sized and larger-sized contracts. In the case of Cardano, it will include ADA futures (100,000 ADA) and Micro ADA futures (10,000 ADA).

Cardano joins the cryptocurrency product suite, which includes Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and Solana futures and options on futures.

Hidden Price Signal?

The surge in futures volume remains significant as leverage resets and capital rotates selectively across the market, benefiting crypto assets with clear institutional flow signals.

Cardano’s open interest has slightly rebounded following a drop in the past day, up 0.12% in the last 24 hours to $792.57 million.

Following two days of drop since Jan. 14, Cardano rebounded from a low of $0.379 on Friday, sustaining gains in the early Saturday session. At the time of writing, ADA was up 1.00% in the last 24 hours to $0.395 and up 1.16% weekly.

The first sign of strength will be a break and close above the $0.4378 high. Cardano’s price may then eye $0.50, where bears are expected to pose a strong defense.

On the other hand, if ADA’s price drops further, there is minor support at $0.38, but if the level falters, Cardano may slide toward $0.33. Buyers are expected to aggressively defend the $0.33 level, as a break below it may take Cardano’s price to the Oct. 10 low of $0.27.
