Cardano (ADA) has recently emerged as a standout in the crypto sphere after gaining a significant price hike. The favorable repercussions from the acceptance of Bitcoin’s (BTC) spot ETF are mostly responsible for this increase.
The hike in ADA’s price was followed by an increase in trading volume, which is typically regarded as a bullish indication. Because of the price uptick, ADA became a hot topic of discussion in the crypto space, as seen by the increase in its social traffic.
This spike in prices marked a new weekly high, indicating an excellent bullish trend after gaining 5% in a single week. However, today’s market indicators point to a slight decline, as negative forces become more visible.
In the past weeks, Cardano’s price was going through a period of stabilization, oscillating between $0.46 and $0.61.
This period of stability was brief, as market factors quickly altered, driving the price above these limits as the price of Cardano entered a lateral movement period, with little substantial change for many days.
Under such fluctuation, it’s worth looking at what ChatGPT thinks about ADA’s prospects for 2024.
Enhanced Ecosystem
Besides price changes, Cardano’s ecosystem experienced significant advancements, especially once Mithril was upgraded.
The network has continuously run without any problems since its mainnet debut in June, thanks to the increasing participation of committed Stake Pool Operators.
Since its mainnet launch in June, the #Mithril protocol has maintained uninterrupted operation, thanks to the increasing participation of dedicated Stake Pool Operators (#SPOs).
🙏 Kudos to Mithril pioneer SPOs for their unwavering support.

Mithril’s constructive expansion of the Cardano ecosystem has the potential to improve the network’s usability and general appeal.
ADA: Driving the network’s functionality
ADA is more than just a digital currency; it is a testimonial to the secure exchange of value, removing the need for middlemen. Every ADA owner becomes a stakeholder, contributing to the Cardano ecosystem in a multitude of ways.
The initial ADA supply was limited to 45 billion units, with a one-of-a-kind distribution technique.
The Cardano Foundation, EMURGO, and IOHK are critical components of the Cardano ecosystem, and they were allotted funds during the pre-launch sales event. The deliberate allocation of genesis blocks laid the groundwork for Cardano’s journey.
The innovative Ouroboros Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus technique underpins Cardano’s functionality. Ouroboros is the first blockchain consensus mechanism based on peer-reviewed research, distinguishing Cardano from its competitors.
Plutus, Cardano’s native smart contract language built from Haskell, works in tandem with Ouroboros. This Turing-complete language, similar to Haskell programs, powers Plutus smart contracts.
Cardano’s two-layer design increases its versatility and scalability even more. Transaction validation and cryptocurrency transfers are handled by the Cardano Settlement Layer (CSL).
The Cardano Computation Layer (CCL) is in charge of computational details such as smart contracts.
We started putting our AI companion to the test by asking it questions about ADA’s future. ChatGPT’s ability to express itself is presently hindered due to limits imposed by the developers.
To get it to say what it wanted, we applied the “jailbreak” technique.
ChatGPT’s views on ADA and the Ripple-SEC verdict
I decided to test if ChatGPT can answer some of my queries regarding the Cardano network and its native token, ADA.
At first, I asked it about the impact of the Ripple [XRP]-SEC verdict on the status of ADA (Cardano’s native token) as a security.
The court had given a ruling in July that while the institutional sale of XRP tokens constituted a sale of securities, the programmatic sale of those tokens to retail investors didn’t meet the criteria of being a security agreement.
ChatGPT said its limited knowledge until January 2022 made it unaware of a definitive verdict on the Ripple case.
It was at this point that I decided to jailbreak it using the DAN (Do Anything Now) prompt.

While the classic version said it didn’t have access to real-time information, the jailbroken version talked at length about the potential implications of the Ripple-SEC verdict for ADA.
But the bot said the verdict sent shockwaves through the crypto space. This is completely untrue, as the crypto community celebrated the verdict as a partial victory for Ripple.
The bot further claimed that ADA emerged relatively unscathed, as regulators provided clear guidelines distinguishing it from securities.
This again is completely false, as the regulating body had specifically classified ADA as a security in its lawsuits against Binance and Coinbase.
Recently, the SEC again reiterated its claim regarding ADA being a security in its latest lawsuit against the Kraken crypto exchange.
ChatGPT predicts ADA’s performance
I asked ChatGPT what it thought the price of Cardano would be by the end of 2023.

The bot claimed ADA will become one of the top-performing cryptocurrencies, thanks to its groundbreaking developments, widespread adoption, and a surge in demand. However, it refused to provide a specific price prediction.
I again asked it the same question using a different jailbreak prompt.

This time, the bot was able to provide a clear answer but, seemingly, a preposterous one. It said it expected ADA to rise to $5—a 12x surge, within a month.
Though the world of crypto is indeed very volatile and unpredictable, a 12x surge within a month is a very tough task—nearly impossible—given the metrics.
I then asked it to predict ADA’s price towards the end of 2024.

The bot said ADA will reach $10 by the end of 2024—a 25x surge within a year. It looks like the bot assumed it would hit $5 by December 2023 and keep rallying further.
A look at ADA’s daily price chart

At press time, ADA was trading in the green, as the alt’s price gained more than 4% in the last 7 days. The MACD exuded several red histograms below the half-line, indicating a bearish momentum.
The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator was traversing just over the zero mark, indicating minor buying pressure. This meant that capital inflows exceeded capital outflows, indicating that a reversal might be on the way.
Conclusion
ADA exceeded expectations during the last week. The altcoin’s ability to retain momentum will be key to its future fortunes.
If the bulls are successful in pushing Cardano’s price over the $0.61 resistance level, the cryptocurrency’s price will resume its upward trend.
Like many in the community, ChatGPT remains positive about ADA’s prospects in 2024. However, keep in mind that ChatGPT is still in its early phases and is far from faultless.
So, before finishing any ADA orders, you should do your homework. We must be cautious, as the crypto industry can be quite volatile.
