ADA in plain facts
Updated 2026-11-14 (UTC) · Binance spot data
How ADA behaves versus Bitcoin
ADA has a beta of 1.24 against Bitcoin: largely moves in step with Bitcoin (~1.24×). In plain terms, on a day Bitcoin moves 1%, ADA has moved about 1.24% on average in the same direction. Beta describes past co-movement over the available daily history; it is not a forecast.
What ADA moves with
Over the last 90 days its daily moves tracked DOGE (0.92) and XRP (0.86) most closely among the large coins we compare against. A correlation of 1.0 would mean they moved in lockstep; 0 would mean no relationship.
Where ADA sits in its own history
Today's price is higher than on 1% of the days in its last 5 years on Binance — low in its range — closer to past lows than past peaks.
How volatile ADA is
Its annualised volatility over the last 90 days is 76.5%, about 1.77× Bitcoin's over the same window. Today's move: a typical day (~1.5× normal).
ADA's worst drawdown
The deepest peak-to-trough fall in this window was -92.5%, bottoming on 2026-06-25. Context: 2025–26 bear phase — a broad drawdown. This number is free on Sightglass and always will be.
Reading
ADA — a coin that amplifies Bitcoin ~1.24×; moves most closely with DOGE and XRP; currently sits in the lower zone of its 5-year range (1th pctile); more volatile than Bitcoin (~1.8×). Facts, not a call — the decision stays yours.
