Cardano Price Forecast as Founder of Crypto Capital Venture Says ADA is Likely Not a Security – ADA to the Moon?

ADA, the ticker for cryptocurrency Cardano, the token that powers the smart-contract-enabled Cardano blockchain, is seeing a modest pull-back on Thursday in the wake of a ferocious two-day rally.

Most recently, Cardano advocate and founder of Crypto Capital Venture Dan Gambardello opined that he thinks it unlikely that the US Securities and Exchange Commission will deem the cryptocurrency as a
