Cardano’s ADA jumps to above $0.27 as open interest climbs to over $300 million

AI Market Summary
Santiment data suggests ADA's recent breakout above $0.27 was driven by fresh leveraged long positioning rather than a pure short squeeze: open interest rose ~25% to ~$304M (and ~13% in ADA terms) alongside a ~10% price gain. Elevated whale transactions and a funding-rate flip from negative to positive indicate improving risk appetite and increased speculative participation, raising short-term volatility sensitivity.
