The Cardano price is forecasted to reach $2.89801 by the beginning of October 2021. The expected maximum price is $3.62251, minimum price $2.46331. The Cardano price prediction for the end of the month is $2.89801, after the Alonzo Fork. But what will make it achieve $ 5 and when will it happen? Will Cardano position itself to replace Ethereum and tackle the issue of huge gas fees? 
cardano is a good coin and having a great year this 2021 but expecting a much bigger price will be depending on how this market reacts because Bitcoin is still the deciding factor.there might be opportunity because of Ethereum high fee that people will convert using ADA instead but the thing is the support for ethereum specially new project is indeed still upgrading and now that NFP is also taking close to ETH network.
so I think if there is highest ADA can reach this year is 3$ and that 5$ target will take another years to achieved .
