How High Could Cardano Price Go if ADA is Used in US Elections

After soaring 40% in the last 7 days, Cardano price could be getting ready for an extended 100% breakout fueled by speculation of an integration with the U.S. government. Cardano is reportedly among a handful of other crypto networks that could be used to form a blockchain-based voting system.

ADA price increased by 0.9% in the last 24 hours after correcting to $0.5438. Trading at $0.5866, the ADA price action is forming a bullish continuation pattern that could result in an aggressive upside breakout.

Could a U.S. eVoting Adoption Drive Cardano Price Higher?

Speculation is growing about a new US voting system using blockchain technology, with Cardano (ADA) and Hedera Hashgraph (HBAR) at the forefront.

According to Ex-board members of the Oracle company, Shawn, President Trump, and the incoming Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are blockchain-based voting and identify verification systems

Neither Cardano nor Hedera has made any official statements regarding their involvement, and sources for claims remain unverified.

Nevertheless, Cardano investors are elated by the speculation as the network’s experience in decentralized ID positions it well for future voting applications. 

Such an advancement would significantly boost the credibility and perceived utility of Cardano, which, for the longest time, has been christened a ‘ghost chain.’ 

Adopting the network would drive investor interest and confidence in ADA, potentially leading to a Cardano price increase.

Cardano’s focus on security, scalability, and sustainability makes it a strong candidate for eVoting solutions.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson earlier confirmed that he would dedicate 2025 to shaping crypto policy in Washington, D.C.

Technical Analysis: Path to a 6X Rally for ADA Price

Cardano price action shows a potential trend reversal after a long period of consolidation. ADA has moved out of a base-building phase, with a recent breakout above the $0.50 level, indicating a shift towards bullish momentum.

The Fibonacci retracement levels derived from the previous all-time high and the recent low suggest potential resistance at $1.87 (38.2% retracement), $3.00 (50% retracement), and $3.81 (61.8% retracement).

Based on the measured move from the breakout and Fibonacci projections, ADA’s next potential target could be around $3.10, a 549% (6.4X) increase from the current price.

The recent breakout is accompanied by increased volume, indicating sustained buyer interest and a higher probability of continued upward momentum. This breakout candle also suggests buyers are willing to push ADA higher from current levels.

Nevertheless, the current bullish thesis may be invalidated if bears push the price below $0.3.
