Why Cardano is down 2.7% today

Analysis

Cardano (ADA) fell 2.7% over the past 24 hours despite generally constructive headlines, suggesting the upgrade news wasn’t enough to support near-term demand. U.Today reported a new smart contract release ahead of an intra-era hard fork, but the market still moved lower, indicating the update may have been largely anticipated or overshadowed by broader selling pressure in altcoins.
