Charles Hoskinson, the renowned creator of the layer 1 blockchain network, Cardano, claims 2025 is the year of cryptocurrencies. These remarks from the crypto entrepreneur come amid a massive fluctuation in the price of Bitcoin BTC $82 906 24h volatility: 3.1% Market cap: $1.65 T Vol. 24h: $35.06 B . While the digital asset space began February on a bearish note, investors immediately bought the dip, pushing prices higher.
In a post on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Hoskinson highlighted the fact that the recent crypto market crash resulted in liquidation levels higher than those witnessed during the collapse of FTX or the LUNA token, but the market recovered almost immediately.
“To give you a sense of how big the upcoming bull market is for crypto, we just absorbed a downturn that was larger than the collapse of Luna or FTX and have already nearly recovered: 710 billion in losses and 740,000 traders liquidated in 24 hours. 2025 is Crypto’s year,” Hoskinson said.
A user called Bitcody made a bullish assessment of crypto markets on X. He noted that markets had already demonstrated resilience by shrugging off a major crash, and predicted that in the future, even trillion-dollar sell-offs would see equally rapid recoveries.
The fact that the market shrugged off a crash this size says it all. Now imagine, a few years from now, when trillion-dollar sell-offs happen, and the market recovers just as fast. That’s where we’re headed.

The recent market dump was a result of the DeepSeek AI crash and US President Donald Trump announcing tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China. The crash saw Bitcoin dropping from a high of $102,000 to $91,000 in just a few hours.
However, the cryptocurrency quickly recovered to $100,000 and is trading at $98,102. However, Hoskinson’s ADA token failed to follow a similar recovery pattern.
ADA $0.62 24h volatility: 0.2% Market cap: $22.27 B Vol. 24h: $773.55 M is trading at $0.7635 at press time, up 0.25% in the past day. The altcoin failed to break above the $1 price level as January ended and crashed to the $0.70 price level, printing a drop of 17% in the past week alone. Additionally, as per the daily chart below, ADA still faces significant resistance at the $1 price level. In order to confirm an uptrend, the altcoin needs to reclaim $1.10 and make a move towards $1.5.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for the ADA price action reads a value of 31.58. Investors could see Cardano enter the oversold region in the near future, which often results in favorable entry points. The gradient of the line suggests that investors are hesitant to purchase the dip, hoping for another crash if $0.70 doesn’t hold.
The MACD indicator remains bearish for the ADA price action after confirming a bearish divergence during the recent market dip. The histogram also remains bearish, and the sellers are dominant.
