Ardor (ARDR) Price Update – Feb 2, 2026
Ardor (ARDR) is showing extreme volatility today after the successful execution of its mandatory mainnet hard fork at block 4,333,333. The token is currently trading around $0.0863, posting a sharp +59.8% gain in the last 24 hours, driven by strong speculative momentum.
The rally is closely linked to the v2.6.0 upgrade, finalized on February 1, 2026. This upgrade completes the NXT token migration to Ardor and activates Atomic Transaction Chains, a major technical milestone that enables advanced cross-chain and multi-step transactions.
On the exchange side, Upbit and Bithumb temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals during the fork window. Such suspensions often reduce liquidity, amplifying price movements and contributing to the current “god candle” structure.
Trading volume has exploded to nearly $94.9M in 24 hours, confirming strong short-term interest. Ardor’s market cap now sits around $86.2M, placing it near #268 by market value.
⚠️ Traders should expect high volatility as liquidity normalizes and post-fork profit-taking begins. Monitoring lower-timeframe candles and volume divergence is key.
