Cardano TD Sequential turns bullish: here's the target. A big bullish sign emerges on the daily charts, but the SuperTrend's still lagging behind upon ADA's soft bounce. On-chain signals are starting to fall in line for Cardano (ADA) on the daily time-frame, says mainstream crypto analyst Ali Martinez. Enduring a bi-weekly correction after a double-digit rally last month, Cardano's (ADA) price managed to restore the $0.17 resistance territory along with a bullish TD Sequential signal. Cardano bulls unveil targets upon complete correction. According to Martinez, the big play here is $0.20 in the near-term. That ADA price range was last touched on August 6, 2026, when Cardano's utility-driven rally topped out. However, last week's correction had the Tom DeMark Sequential at a selling sentiment before turning bullish. That was clearly triggered by whales. During that pushback, the number of whales holding 1-10 million ADA fell from 2,370 to 2,340, making many crypto aficionados believe a bigger drawdown is coming up next. Instead, ADA found its foot at $0.158, waited a couple of days & found confirmation at the $0.17 price range. 18+ · Gambling involves risk. Play responsibly. With bulls pushing through, the path to $0.20 comes with a crucial checkpoint that's designed to flip the price trend back to bullish. Technically speaking, the next confirmation line comes at $0.188, converging with the SuperTrend's green line pictured in the chart below. With the True Strength Index (TSI) bottoming roughly three days ago, the upward convergence of blue & pink lines in this indicator would definitely harden Ali's bullish thesis if the SuperTrend price reaches the green point. Cardano's institutional game stronger than ever. The $6.5 billion valued crypto currency could also see a substantial liquidity boost once the brand new Dijkstra upgrade kicks in. The launch is divided into two campaigns: Phase one launches in Q4 2026, featuring the Linear Leios scaling solution, nested transactions, a new serialization structure & Plutus V4 changes. The other phase activates the Ouroboros Peras consensus protocol via a separate hard fork, with a target timeline of Q2 2027. With Cardano's mainnet & the Midnight side-chain becoming way more attractive to institutions. To illustrate, Grand Thorton launched On-chain financial audit attestations on Cardano this year. Meanwhile, Nasdaq included Cardano (ADA) in crypto index futures alongside Bitcoin (BTC) & Ether (ETH).

From vision to impact: creating positive value for people and nature through impact management. 11 August 2026 Consultancy.nl Many organizations are looking for ways to create positive value for people and nature - think of increasing equal opportunities or making the living environment more sustainable. However, the road from vision to actual impact is long and challenging. To prevent beautiful ambitions from stalling along the way, Grant Thornton developed the Future Fit Management Model: a five-step plan for effective impact management. Making an impact is no longer reserved for charities. More and more businesses also want to demonstrably contribute to solutions for social and ecological issues. However, good intentions are only the beginning - the real challenge is to turn them into measurable results and lasting improvement. This is where impact management comes into play. Where the emphasis is often on reporting, Grant Thornton emphasizes that it is essentially about making conscious choices: "Impact management is not just about accountability. The real value lies in using insights to make better decisions and increase positive impact." To support organizations in this, the accountancy and advisory firm developed the Future Fit Management Model. This model describes impact management as a continuous cycle of five steps: vision and analysis, implementation, measuring, improving, and reporting. Organizations can enter at different points, but ultimately it is about completing the entire cycle. "Impact management is not a one-off project, but a continuous learning process in which organizations continually reflect, adjust, and improve," the researchers state. 1: vision and analysis. The first step is to formulate a clear vision. In this, as an organization, you examine which social issues align with your identity, expertise, and ambitions. You also map opportunities, risks, and relevant developments. Tools such as portfolio analysis, scenario thinking, and theories of change help make this vision concrete. 2: implementation. A vision only has value when impact becomes part of everyday practice. This requires not only support among employees, but also appropriate processes, systems, and practical tools. "By making sharp choices, a better picture emerges of what really works and where improvement is possible." Grant Thornton emphasizes that different functions within an organization need different knowledge. "For one employee, the emphasis is on impact measurements, while a board member must incorporate impact into strategic decision-making." The researchers therefore advise organizations to link impact management as much as possible to existing annual cycles and decision-making processes. This way, impact does not become a separate initiative, but an integral part of the organization. 3: measuring. Measurements provide valuable information from which organizations can learn and with which they can improve their approach. The researchers advise organizations to formulate clear learning questions in advance and to focus on a limited number of desired changes. Subsequently, appropriate research methods can be chosen, such as interviews, questionnaires, or creative measurement tools for specific target groups. "Not everything needs to be measured at once," the researchers say. "By making sharp choices, a better picture emerges of what really works and where improvement is possible." 4: improving. Perhaps the most important step in impact management is actually utilizing the collected insights. According to Grant Thornton, many organizations get stuck at collecting data, while translating results into concrete improvements yields the most social value. "Be honest about what went well, but also about what can be improved." It is therefore wise to regularly organize joint reflection sessions in which teams discuss the results, give meaning to the outcomes, and determine which improvements take priority. "It is precisely the disappointing results that often offer the greatest opportunity to learn and further increase social impact," the researchers write. 5: reporting. Only in the last step does reporting come into play. Organizations are increasingly communicating about their social impact, partly due to stricter laws and regulations and the growing need for transparency among stakeholders. Grant Thornton emphasizes that an impact report must always align with the target audience. Donors, investors, collaboration partners, and the general public all have different information needs. In addition, it is important to share not only successes, but also limitations of the research, assumptions made, and lessons learned. "Transparency increases trust," the advisory firm states. "Therefore, be honest about what went well, but also about what can still be improved." Finally: a continuous growth path. Above all, it is important to never lose sight of the goal: impact management ultimately aims to increase positive social value. This requires ongoing engagement of stakeholders, attention to future risks and opportunities, and the willingness to adjust activities when insights give cause to do so. "Those who see impact management as a continuous growth path lay the foundation for an organization that not only creates social value today, but also remains relevant and future-proof in the future," Grant Thornton concludes.
