Cardano faces a major governance decision as a treasury loan vote for global exchange listings gains momentum. At the same time, ADA tests a key $0.517 support level after breaking below its ascending trendline.
Cardano vote tops 3B ADA on proposal to fund global exchange listings
Cardano’s latest governance vote has drawn more than 3 billion ADA in support for a proposal that seeks a treasury-backed loan to pursue tier-1 exchange listings. The measure asks the on-chain treasury to release 5 million ADA as a repayable loan to finance a coordinated “global listing expansion” program.

The vote reflects rising community engagement after Cardano’s transition to full on-chain governance this month. As ballots continue to come in, the proposal remains one of the most closely watched items on the network’s new governance dashboard.
According to the proposal, the 5 million ADA loan would be administered through Intersect, the Cardano member-based organization overseeing governance operations. The plan outlines reporting requirements, repayment terms and oversight to ensure the funds are used for listing efforts rather than unrelated activities.
Supporters argue that the initiative could strengthen Cardano’s presence on major trading venues by funding compliance, integration work and exchange-specific technical needs. Critics, however, have questioned whether treasury funds should be used for listings at all, even on a repayable basis.
The vote remains open, and final tallies will determine whether the treasury approves the request for release of funds.
ADA tests key $0.517 support after trendline break
Cardano slipped below its ascending trendline on the 4-hour chart, putting fresh focus on support around $0.517, according to analyst Man of Bitcoin. He noted that ADA is now pulling back toward this level after failing to extend its recent advance, leaving bulls and bears watching the same line in the sand.

If ADA holds above $0.517, the chart still allows for the “yellow” scenario on his chart, where price grinds higher in a diagonal pattern. In that path, the current move would act as a shallow wave-(2) pullback, with room for another leg up toward the previous resistance zone near $0.73 if buyers regain control.
However, a clean break below $0.517 would be an early warning that the alternative wave-(ii) scenario is taking over. In that case, ADA could slide deeper into the highlighted Fibonacci support box, with intermediate levels near $0.51, $0.46, $0.41 and $0.35 marking potential downside checkpoints before any attempt at a larger recovery.
