Austin Hilton Reaffirms Support for ADA and Its Leadership
Austin Hilton, a crypto pundit with more than 360,000 YouTube subscribers, affirmed his support for Cardano in a recent livestream. He disclosed that he never sold his ADA holdings during the token’s prolonged downturn and does not plan on doing so anytime soon.
In his view, the rationale behind holding on to his ADA tokens stems from his belief in Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, as well as the movement behind the crypto project.

Hilton often shares his portfolio positions, and this transparency has helped him build a strong viewer base. In the meantime, his public stance on ADA has added further weight to ongoing discussions around Cardano’s long-term direction.
Hoskinson’s Plan to Take ADA to Greater Heights
Meanwhile, Hoskinson has been vocal about his plans for Cardano and how he intends to take the project to greater heights. He recently echoed this sentiment during a livestream in which he discussed Cardano’s broader vision for 2026.
He described a plan to build a strong and adaptable blockchain network through steady progress and continuous review. Specifically, he mentioned two projects that will roll out next year, including the long-awaited scalability solution Leios and the mainnet of privacy-focused L2 network Midnight.
He also signaled his intent to unify the broader blockchain ecosystem around Cardano, while aiming to position ADA as the world’s largest cryptocurrency.
ADA Price Performance and Market Conditions
Cardano continued to face pressure across recent trading sessions. The token traded at $0.4329 after a 3.1% daily decline, and its market cap reached $15.54 billion. The market showed reduced activity as 24-hour volume fell 25.95% over the past 24 hours to $561 million.
Meanwhile, it displayed a smooth movement near $0.45 before a drop toward $0.432. This move was consistent with recent weeks, as ADA remained below its March peak of roughly $1.14.
