Why Cardano is up 1.2% in the last hour

Analysis

Cardano (ADA) rose about 1.2% over the past hour after CoinDesk reported comments from founder Charles Hoskinson about the upcoming “Midnight” protocol upgrade, emphasizing it won’t try to poach privacy-coin users from Monero or ZCash. The clarification appeared to reduce uncertainty around Midnight’s positioning and regulatory optics, supporting a modest bid in ADA.
