Why Cardano is down 1.0% in the last hour

Analysis

Cardano (ADA) slipped about 1.0% over the past hour as the market digested mixed near-term sentiment: a broader “which alt is more undervalued” comparison piece may have shifted attention toward competing majors rather than ADA specifically, adding mild selling pressure (CryptoPotato). At the same time, Cardano’s newly announced smart contract release ahead of an intra-era hard fork is constructive but can still coincide with short-term volatility as traders position around upgrade timelines (U.Today).
