Market Moves By Shaurya Malwa The tokens of Cardano (ADA) and Polkadot (DOT), two rivals to the Ethereum blockchain, led gains among major cryptocurrencies amid a muted recovery in broader digital-asset markets on Monday.
Bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH), the native cryptocurrency of Ethereum, regained price levels from Friday after seeing a slight dip over an otherwise quiet Christmas weekend.
Bitcoin failed to break above the $51,000 resistance level on Saturday and fell to $49,700 on Sunday, but traders have since bought the asset back to last Friday's $50,900 level.
ADA gained 9.5% in the past 24 hours to reach a resistance level of $1.56 during European hours on Monday. The move came after Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson spoke of improved network enhancements in 2022 and efforts for more adoption of ADA in countries such as Africa in a public broadcast.

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano and IOG, its development foundation, revealed some of the plans for the network's growth in 2022 in a 30-minute Christmas Eve talk on YouTube from his home in Boulder, Colorado.
"My goal for the second half of 2022 is to figure out how to put all the pieces together to get an end-to-end microfinance transaction on Cardano," Hoskinson said.
The Cardano founder said a structure that oversees the creation of decentralized products on the network would be introduced.
"A formal open-source project structure is going to be formed, kind of like Hyperledger to Linux," Hoskinson said.
Cardano, founded in 2015 and launched in 2017 as an alternative to Ethereum, is a proof-of-stake blockchain that relies on network validators to process transactions for ADA, its native currency, and maintain the network. It is the sixth-largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $51.18 billion at the time of this writing. Full story here:
