TLDR
- 21Shares integrates ADA into its FTSE Crypto 10 ETFs, facilitating regulated access for traditional investors.
- Technical analysis identifies $0.50 as vital support to maintain the bullish structure toward $0.70.
- Short-term price action faces resistance with sell walls accumulated below $0.63.
On its path to mass adoption, the third-generation ecosystem achieves a significant milestone. Cardano (ADA) gained renewed institutional visibility after being officially included by asset manager 21Shares in two of its most prominent financial products: the FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF (TTOP) and the FTSE Crypto 10 ex-Bitcoin Index ETF (TXBC).
This incorporation allows traditional investors to gain exposure to ADA through regulated, index-based vehicles, a crucial step for the asset’s maturity.
According to the prospectus updated as of October 31, 2025, ADA is listed among the index components with an initial weighting of 0.71%. By entering these funds, Cardano shares the stage with market giants like Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as other high-performance assets such as Solana, XRP, and Binance Coin.
While the TTOP fund tracks a basket of the ten largest crypto assets, TXBC excludes Bitcoin, redistributing weights among the remaining altcoins, which could favor Cardano’s institutional visibility in diversified portfolios.
Key Technical Levels: The Battle for $0.50
Beyond the fundamental news, price action is at a technical crossroads. Ali Martinez used his X account to report that it is imperative for bulls to defend the $0.50 level. Currently, the token is attempting to stabilize in a range between $0.55 and $0.60, a zone that has historically acted as a pivot between support and resistance.
If the market manages to hold this base, projections point to a possible rebound towards $0.70, a mid-range ceiling visible since August. However, a close below $0.50 would invalidate the bullish setup, opening the door to deeper losses.
In the very short term, the situation is dynamic. According to trader CW, ADA has rebounded after hitting a buy wall in a green demand zone.
However, the order book reveals friction on the way up: there are three sell walls stacked just below $0.63.
For Cardano’s institutional visibility to translate into sustained gains, buying volume must be sufficient to absorb these offers and overcome immediate resistance, avoiding a rejection that returns the price to recent lows.
