According to recent chart work and on-chain checks, some XRP backers say the token may be gearing up for another big move. Analysts who track past cycles point to patterns that played out in 2017 and 2018 and say similar moves could follow now. XRP Repeats Past Price Cycle Reports have disclosed that XRP broke a long downtrend in March 2017, running from about $0.0055 to roughly $0.40 by May 2017. After that first surge, the token cooled and traded sideways for around six months before shooting to $3.31 in January 2018. According to EtherNasyonal’s charts, the market then entered a long decline and another accumulation phase. One key detail the analyst highlights is…

Proponents of XRP are stepping up their pitch this week, calling the token “one of the greatest wealth transfers in history.” They argue it’s more than just another crypto. You’ll hear claims that XRP is already reshaping global finance and leaving old systems in the dust. According to influencer Coach JV, Ripple is building a whole new rails for money. He says XRP isn’t here to compete with banks. It’s here to replace them. He points out that transactions on the XRP Ledger settle in 3–5 seconds and cost fractions of a penny. That beats SWIFT transfers, which can take days and cost up to $50 per payment. XRP still trades around $2,25 but that figure, he argues, won’t …

Bitcoin’s smaller cousin, XRP, has drawn fresh bullish bets after it held above the $3 mark in July. According to trading charts and public commentary, the token first pierced $3 in January 2025 — its highest point in seven years — then pulled back before reclaiming that level in mid-July. The comeback has some analysts reading the move as a change in market structure, and price sits near $3.12 as momentum checks continue. Trendline Breakouts And Support Flip According to analyst Steph, a breakout above a long-running descending trendline on the weekly XRP chart is what matters now. Steph points to the flip of $3 from resistance into support as a classic technical cue…

The XRP/BTC monthly chart has finally snapped the long diagonal that’s capped XRP since 2018, and one analyst on X thinks that shift could rewrite the pecking order. Posting under the handle X Finance Bull (XFB), the analyst argued that XRP will soon start to outperform Bitcoin. This is because the XRP/BTC pair has not only broken out but also retested the trendline as support, and this has certified the start of a new buildup of momentum. Retest Of A Six-Year Breakout Trendline The mid-October flash crash that rippled through the crypto market left a visible mark on the XRP/BTC chart, creating a deep downward wick that momentarily dipped below the long-standing resis…

A loose but growing push is under way in the XRP community to build what some people call an “XRP firewall” — a set of tools and checks meant to block scams on the XRPL. Vet, one of the dUNL validators on the XRP Ledger, has hinted at a big update that could change the fight against scams on XRPL. The feature, known as the XLS-86 Firewall, is still in development but is being described as a possible endgame for fraudsters. In a recent post, Vet said the amendment would act as a safeguard to stop losses of XRP, tokens, and NFTs when activated. If approved and rolled out, it could give users a much stronger line of defense against common traps that have cost the commun…

November has been a reality check of sorts for Bitcoin’s (BTC) price action. The crypto gold was riding high off its success in creating an ATH of $126,000 in October, and the broader crypto market thought that the era of massive BTC liquidations was over.

Yearn Finance reported that a legacy yETH product was hit by an exploit that allowed an attacker to mint a massive amount of fake tokens and swap them for real assets. According to on-chain alerts and protocol statements, the attacker created a near-infinite supply of yETH in a single transaction, then used those tokens to pull ETH and liquid-staking derivatives from liquidity pools. The incident was first flagged on November 30, 2025, and the total impact has been reported at roughly $9 million. How The Exploit Worked Based on reports, the attacker took advantage of a flaw in the yETH minting logic and produced tokens on the order of 235 trillion in one go. Thos…

Overview: The US dollar is mixed. Sterling is the weakest of the G10 currencies after unexpectedly poor employment reported boosted chances of rate cut next month. The dollar also made marginal new high against the Japanese yen since February, but so far has remained below JPY154.50. The dollar-bloc currencies are softer while the Scandis are slightly firmer. Holidays in the US and Canada make for a quiet North American session today. Equities in Asia Pacific were mixed and the MSCI regional index was little changed. South Korea and Singapore were the strongest gainer, while China's CSI 300 fell the most among the large bourses; almost 1%. Europe's Stoxx 600 is ri…

"To survive, one must adapt." Kazuo Ueda's diplomacy has convinced investors of the potential for a December cut in the overnight rate. According to a Reuters insider in the government, the Bank of Japan will continue its normalization efforts, and the Prime Minister must simply accept this. Just a year ago, Sanae Takichi called tightening monetary policy foolish. Perspectives change, and along with them, the upward trend for USD/JPY is breaking. One can only speculate how Ueda managed to convince the Prime Minister—perhaps by emphasizing the need to combat inflation or by referencing the weak yen, which does not please the United States. The government will turn a blind …

The Japanese yen rose against the dollar after rumors circulated that officials at the Bank of Japan are ready to raise interest rates this month. It is expected that next week, the BOJ will also announce its intention to continue raising rates if its economic forecasts are realized, while exercising caution about how much it will ultimately raise rates. Such expectations are fueled by domestic pressure to combat inflation, strengthen the national currency, and stimulate sustainable economic growth. A stronger yen may also help reduce import costs, in turn lessening the inflationary pressure that Japanese consumers have been feeling lately. The BOJ's decision to raise ra…

Overview: The US dollar begins the new week with a softer bias, but it still needs to run the North American gauntlet, which has tended to be more constructive than other centers recently. As seemed likely, less than a year after losing its majority in the lower, the LDP and Komeito coalition lost its majority in the upper chamber yesterday. Japanese domestic markets were closed for a national holiday, but the yen strengthened om the news, even before the US 10-year yield extended its pullback for the fourth consecutive session. The greenback is mostly softer against the G10 currencies and most emerging market currencies today. Except for Taiwan and Australia, most large…

Overview: The US dollar is mostly consolidating in narrow ranges against the major currencies. The notable exception is the Japanese yen, which has slumped to a new nine-month low as the greenback approached JPY155. Despite repeated warnings by Japan's finance minister, the market seems undaunted. Actual material intervention seems unlikely, especially outside of Tokyo markets. Bearish sentiment toward sterling after yesterday's poor employment data has seen it edge a little closer to $1.3100, where options for GBP1.9 ln expire today. Most emerging market currencies also are softer, though the PBOC set the dollar's reference rate at a new low since last October. Equities…

Overview: The US dollar is mostly firmer today as its pullback from last week's highs is retraced. Although the US 10-year yield is spending more time below the 4.0% floor, the yen is the weakest of the G10 currencies, off about 0.70%, as Takaichi became Japan's first woman prime minister and the many investors are concerned about the policy mix she advocates. That said, the JGB market was little changed. Most emerging market currencies are also softer. The Chinese yuan's nearly flat performance puts it atop the EM FX complex, pending the open of the Latam market. Gold rallied almost 2.5% yesterday to reach a new record (~$4381.50) but is off nearly 2% now. It is thus fa…

The Bank of Japan, as expected, made no changes to its monetary policy during the meeting that concluded on October 30, and the yen weakened against the dollar. The explanations for this indecision were the same as before – uncertainty in the US economy due to a lack of data from the shutdown, as well as the complexities of wage negotiation assessments. All of this has long been factored into the markets, and the real reason for the pause in rate hikes, especially against the backdrop of a noticeable rise in inflation in October, appears to be more complex. Bank of Japan Governor Ueda needs more time to align monetary policy with the position of the Takahichi government, …

The Japanese yen continues to lose ground against the U.S. dollar, having already reached an eight-month low. During her speech today, Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama stated that the Japanese government is closely monitoring the yen's exchange rate, issuing its first clear warning about currency fluctuations since she took office. "Recently, we have seen very one-sided and rapid movements in exchange rates," Katayama told reporters on Friday. "The government is closely watching for excessive or disorderly movements in the currency market, including those driven by speculative actions, and considers this extremely important," she said. She added that it is important for…

Log in to today's North American session recap for August 7, 2025. Today's huge turn in the US stocks have sent another round of confusion in the daily cross-asset picture. Global stock indices were onto another strong session which lasted all the way to the North American opening bell, with Nasdaq, S&P 500 and the Dow Jones all opening strongly before giving up all their gains, reacting at key technical levels.

A pro-XRP software developer sparked fresh debate this week by saying it takes “serious conviction” to hold volatile coins like XRP through long, wild swings. Vincent Van Code said holding XRP all the way to $1,000 — let alone $10,000 — would take “mental illness.” His comments have drawn attention not just for the blunt wording but for the story they tell about the human side of crypto risk. Holder Psychology Under Stress According to Van Code, the real test begins long before a coin hits big numbers. He pointed to Bitcoin as an example: Bitcoin traded under $1 in 2010 and now sits above $110,000. Many claim they would have held from those early days, but Van Code a…

Bitcoin is treading cautiously below the $110,000 level, signaling a pause in momentum after recent highs. At the time of writing, the asset is priced at $106,841, marking a mild 0.4% decline over the past 24 hours. Despite brushing a daily high of $107,884, BTC appears to be consolidating in a narrow range, with market participants watching for the next significant move. Amid this relatively flat price action, on-chain trends suggest that not all is quiet under the surface. A new analysis by CryptoQuant contributor “oinonen” sheds light on wallet activity within Binance, one of the largest crypto exchanges by trading volume. Bitcoin Mid-Tier Investors Take Center Sta…

According to comments from the creator of the stock-to-flow model, the familiar four-year cycle tied to Bitcoin halvings may no longer be a sure guide for traders. The analyst — known as PlanB — warned that using just three past cycles to predict future tops is risky, and he said the next peak is not guaranteed to fall 18 months after the last halving in October. Cycle Timing May Vary Widely PlanB told followers that the top could arrive in 2026, or 2027, or even 2028, and that he is more focused on Bitcoin’s average price level than on a single high or low. Reports have disclosed that some market participants believe $126,000 was the peak and expect BTC to slide belo…
