DeepSeek, a prominent AI model, predicts Cardano price could see significant growth before the end of this year, 2025.

In recent days, Cardano has struggled to maintain momentum. As of June 6, ADA’s price stood at $0.639, marking a 5.7% decrease in just 24 hours. From June 1 to June 6, ADA faced consistent downward pressure, hitting a low of $0.62. 

However, this short-term struggle doesn’t appear to reflect a lack of long-term potential. AI-based predictions, in particular, point toward substantial growth for Cardano before the end of the year, despite the current volatility.

AI Model Predict Significant Growth for Cardano

Notably, China’s advanced AI model, DeepSeek, has presented a bold prediction for Cardano price, according to TapTools.

DeepSeek forecasts that ADA could experience a remarkable 10x increase in value by the end of 2025, potentially reaching $7 per token. This prediction has triggered excitement, especially within the Cardano community, as it suggests that despite recent market challenges, the token may still have significant room for growth.

This forecast represents an ambitious target, as Cardano would need to surge by roughly 1,029% to reach $7. However, TapTools did not present specific reasons behind DeepSeek’s prediction.

Despite this, some market observers expressed skepticism about the validity of AI forecasts, especially considering the level of speculation during the bear market. One critic pointed out that “speculation and hopium” posted repeatedly on social media, particularly on X, could have impacted the quality of AI-driven predictions. 

Despite mixed opinions, some traders are beginning to see potential in the current price dip. One user shared their regret for selling ADA recently but noted that the ongoing drop could present an opportunity to buy at a lower price.

Divergent Price Predictions from Analysts

In contrast to DeepSeek’s optimistic forecast, several crypto analytic platforms have provided their own price predictions for Cardano by 2025. For instance, Changelly anticipates ADA will trade between $0.621 and $0.821, with an average of $0.721 this year.

CoinCodex is slightly more bullish, predicting ADA to range from $0.87 to $0.94, with an average price of $0.9. Meanwhile, Investing Haven provides a broader range, from $0.66 to $1.88, with a more optimistic peak target of $2.36.

These varying predictions highlight the uncertainty surrounding Cardano’s future but also suggest that growth potential remains on the horizon.

Cardano Journey to $7

Meanwhile, Egrag Crypto, a crypto analyst on X, previously drew comparisons between Cardano and XRP’s performance during the 2021 bull run. Egrag noted that XRP underperformed during that period, failing to break its all-time high despite the broader market surge. 

He believes Cardano may follow a similar path in the current cycle, underperforming compared to other assets. 

Egrag’s analysis suggests two key takeaways: First, ADA might not be the most profitable coin from its current price point, especially when compared to other mid-cap assets with more room to grow. Second, while a 10x move to $7 is possible, it would require the total cryptocurrency market cap to grow to $10 trillion.
