Derived from 币界网, Cardano (ADA) has regained significant momentum in the DeFi space, with its total value locked (TVL) surging 28.7% in Q3 2025 to reach a three-year high. Messari's report highlights a 42.5% increase in ADA's market cap to $29.5 billion, driven by DeFi growth and a strong treasury expansion. Key protocols like Liqwid and Minswap contributed to the rise, with Liqwid's TVL jumping 50.8% to $10.16 million and Minswap capturing 74.7% of DEX volume. Meanwhile, ADA's treasury balance hit $1.3 billion, signaling renewed developer confidence. On-chain data from Santiment shows whales purchased 348 million ADA tokens, worth over $204 million, between November 7–10, 2025, as the price approached $0.6. Analysts suggest a potential rebound to $0.73 if the bullish pattern continues.
