$ADA (Cardano) up ~11–12% to the $0.27 area, highest since May.

What’s driving the narrative:
• RealFi went live on mainnet on October 1

→ users can route stablecoins into institutional credit with yields up to 9%
• Integrations with Lace, Liqwid, and SundaeSwap
• Anticipation for the Dijkstra upgrade (Phase 1 late Dec 2026 – early 2027) focused on Linear Leios + nested transactions
• Technical Golden Cross + short squeeze

No single massive headline, but a combination of RealFi momentum and the upcoming upgrade narrative is turning sentiment around.
