ADA Open Interest Jumps 25% as ChatGPT Predicts $0.30 Level
cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that ChatGPT AI predicts Cardano (ADA) will push toward $0.30, though leverage cuts in both directions. Open interest jumped roughly 25% to $304 million between October 3 and 5, while social chatter barely moved. ADA trades at $0.2772, up 1.9% over 24 hours and 11.1% over seven days, with a market cap of $10.41 billion and $836.6 million in volume. Whales made 413 large transactions on Cardano yesterday, and Head Trader @IvanOnTech noted that even without new highs, there is big profit potential.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ADA, measured when this story was written up on 7 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data for ADA shows a price of $0.2674, with a 1-hour buy ratio of 50.4% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 45.3%, compared to a 24-hour buy ratio of 49.0%. The 1-hour volume delta is positive at +$8,058, but the 4-hour delta is negative at -$411,688, and the 24-hour delta closes at -$1,104,780. The buy ratio indicates the percentage of trades executed by buyers versus sellers, while the volume delta measures the net value of those trades. Buying pressure appears mixed in the short term, with a slight edge to buyers in the last hour but significant net selling over the past four hours and day. Net buying occurred in only 7 of the last 24 hours, with a spot volume of $59,664,673 across 199,828 trades.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.6% sits at the 5th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for ADA, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 50.0%, with the latest day showing a difference of -0.9 points. Volume was 1.26x the average, while the coin saw net buying on 4 of 7 days. The price changed by +9.4% over 8 days, with a total volume delta of -$1,156,190. This represents a volume level 1.26 times higher than the weekly average, indicating an unusual day for the coin. The weekly context shows a divergence between higher volume and a negative net delta, contrasting with the slightly more balanced 24-hour buy ratio.
