Crypto analyst Hal has revealed how investors can make up to $1 million by investing in Litecoin. This comes as another analyst has predicted that LTC could soon break out of its current consolidation phase to reach a four-figure price target. 

How Litecoin Can Turn A $3,700 Investment Into $1 Million

In an X post, Hal stated that investors can make $1 million from about $3,700 if they bid the low $30 range on Litecoin and sell when the altcoin reaches $9,000. The analyst is confident that the LTC price can still drop to around this level, providing investors another opportunity to take this investment advice. 

 He noted that Litecoin never saw the 5th wave down in the Wave C corrective move, which he claimed means the altcoin is still going to drop below $41. Hal’s accompanying chart also showed that LTC could still drop to as low as $30 before its next parabolic rally to the upside. The analyst remarked that the altcoin could fall below the projected $30 range, but that it looks unlikely. 

Meanwhile, Hal declared that Litecoin is the “clearest and most confident” 250x to 300x play he sees in the market. He added that he has been waiting a long time for this last drop to $30 and that it is coming soon. He urged investors not to miss it, seeing as he projects that they could make millions on their LTC investment. 

Hal’s prediction comes amid the launch of the first spot Litecoin ETF by Canary Capital. This is expected to attract institutional inflows into the LTC ecosystem, which could be a positive for the altcoin’s price. However, the LTC hasn’t had the best of starts and is currently lagging behind the Solana and Hedera ETFs, which also just launched, in terms of inflows. 

Why LTC Could Easily Record This Parabolic Rally

Hal noted that Litecoin has one of the longest, oldest, and largest accumulation channels in existence among altcoins against its Bitcoin pair. He revealed that the LTC/BTC chart looks similar to the DOGE/BTC chart just before the Dogecoin price broke out and did a 663x in the 2021 bull cycle. This is why the analyst is confident that LTC’s price can record a 300x gain from the next low when it reaches the top of the next altcoin run. 

Meanwhile, crypto analyst CoinsKid stated that Litecoin has been in consolidation mode since the 2018 cycle top. He added that compression leads to expansion, predicting that LTC can reach $4,000 if it breaks the upper resistance just above $200.  CoinsKid noted how this would put LTC just shy of Ethereum’s market cap. 

At the time of writing, the Litecoin price is trading at around $96, up almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

A discussion has surfaced within the crypto community regarding the reasoning behind XRP’s fixed supply of 100 billion tokens. For years, enthusiasts and investors have questioned why Ripple opted for such a large figure when most cryptocurrencies operate with far smaller caps. Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz, recently addressed the question on the social platform X, shedding light on the considerations that guided the early design of the XRP Ledger.

Technical Foundations Behind XRP’s 100 Billion Supply

David Schwartz was one of the original architects behind XRP and the XRP Ledger in 2012, and as such, he possesses unmatched insight into the cryptocurrency’s tokenomics and the rationale that shaped its design. His response to the question regarding XRP’s 100 billion supply design revealed that the decision was rooted in technical precision and deliberate effort to balance the functionality of the token’s architecture.

The first layer of reasoning behind XRP’s supply lies in its technical design. According to Schwartz, the developers of the Ledger sought a number that would provide adequate divisibility for the token. This level of divisibility allows XRP to be functional across both high-value institutional payments and smaller, everyday transactions.

Equally important was the need for the total supply to fit cleanly within a 64-bit integer, a standard data type used in computing to store numerical values efficiently. This decision minimizes the risk of overflow errors or arithmetic inconsistencies in the ledger’s codebase. A supply as large as 100 billion allows the system to handle every transaction amount accurately while preserving performance and compatibility with conventional software frameworks.

Usability And Design Simplicity

Aside from the technical justifications, the choice of 100 billion was also made with human usability in mind. As noted by Schwartz, the third reason for XRP’s 100 billion circulating supply is that the number is easy for humans to remember. 

Ripple’s architects wanted a total supply that was easy to communicate, recognize, and remember. A round, memorable number like 100 billion conveys clarity to users and traders.

Although XRP has a maximum supply of 100 billion tokens, not every token is currently in circulation. At the time of writing, XRP has a circulating supply of 60.1 billion tokens.

At the launch of the Ledger, a total supply of 100 billion XRP was pre-mined and fixed. Of this amount, approximately 55 billion XRP were placed into escrow contracts controlled by Ripple to control how many tokens enter the market over time.

At the time of writing, about 35 billion XRP tokens are currently locked in escrow and waiting to be released into circulation. Each month, up to 1 billion XRP is released, and any unused portion (about 70% to 80%) is typically placed back into escrow. As part of the schedule, Ripple is going to unlock another 1 billion XRP from escrow on November 1. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.51, up by 0.9% in the past 24 hours.

The recent Ethereum price rejection that pushed it back below the $4,000 level has created a concerning trend that could send the price spiraling. The major point of interest lies at the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, where the last rejection occurred. Given this, it is likely that the Ethereum price could see more declines in the coming days, although there is still the possibility of the bulls taking over and invalidating the entire bearish setup.

Ethereum Price Is Showing A Lot Of Weakness

The rejection from the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level marked the start of the decline from the $4,200 level during the last recovery. This rejection resulted in the formation of a lower high on the 4-hour timeframe, and historically, such lower high formations mean that there is more selling pressure piling up for the digital asset.

As the bullish momentum looks to be fading, it puts the Ethereum price in a precarious position. Crypto analyst The Alchemist Trader explains that the rejection had come with increased bearish volume as investors offloaded their holdings on the market, putting bears in charge once again.

Following this development, the Ethereum price has continued to struggle around $3,900, where the next local support lies. The cryptocurrency has maintained a tentative hold at best on this local support, suggesting that the bulls could indeed be losing ground at this level.

If this corrective phase continues, then the Ethereum price decline is far from over. The current local weakness has put a strain on the support, and if $3,900 fails completely, the next major support lies below $3,400, more specifically at $3,385. This will serve as the next stronghold for the bulls to make their move.

“From a structural perspective, Ethereum’s inability to sustain momentum signals growing bearish pressure across lower timeframes,” the crypto analyst explained.

The Case For ETH Bulls

Despite the mounting bearish pressure, there is still the possibility that the Ethereum price could break out of this downtrend. Just like with the bearish case, the key lies at the $3,900 support and how well it holds.

In the case that bulls are able to reclaim and hold this support with momentum, then it could invalidate the bearish setup that has emerged. In this case, the crypto analyst believes that the Ethereum price could resume its uptrend above the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level.

The crypto community has long referred to October as Uptober, a nickname earned through Bitcoin’s consistent history of strong monthly performances. The trend has been so reliable that the month became synonymous with price surges. 

Bitcoin has always closed October in profit over the previous seven years, a record streak unmatched by any other month in its history. However, October 2025 appears to be challenging that reputation. As the month draws to an end, Bitcoin is roughly 4% below its monthly open, and October might finally end in red territory for the first time since 2018.

Bitcoin Might Close October In Red

Bitcoin’s price opened October at $114,079, and its sentiment was overwhelmingly bullish at the beginning of the month, carrying over a positive 5% monthly close in September. This bullish sentiment saw the leading cryptocurrency break above $126,000 for the first time before finally setting a new all-time high of $126,080 on October 6. The move strengthened hopes that Uptober would live up to its name once again. 

However, the bullish momentum cooled off rapidly, with Bitcoin slipping below $120,000 very quickly. By the middle of the month, Bitcoin witnessed a flash crash that caused its price to fall as low as $101,000 in a quick move. As it stands, Bitcoin is now consolidating near $110,000 by late October, and it can only register a monthly close above this level.

The last time Bitcoin closed October in the red was in 2018, when it closed at $6,303, which is about 4% below its October open of $6,958. That year was during the height of a prolonged bear cycle, when the crypto market was struggling to recover from the massive 2017 rally. Bitcoin’s price had already suffered consecutive down months, and October’s decline was followed by an even more brutal 36.4% crash in November, the steepest monthly loss in the cryptocurrency’s history.

Could November Be Different This Time?

The question now is whether Bitcoin might repeat this downtrend in November 2025. If history were to repeat itself, like it always does in the crypto market, a negative October close could precede another correction in November. However, the answer might not be as straightforward. 

Unlike in 2018, Bitcoin’s current market structure is supported by several bullish fundamentals. Institutional interest through Spot Bitcoin ETFs, exchange outflows, and on-chain data shows that long-term holders are not selling aggressively. Even as the price is consolidating around $110,000, volatility is lower than during previous market tops, and this indicates a phase of cooling before another breakout. 

Even if the month closes in red, the overall bullish trajectory of Bitcoin is intact. Bitcoin continues to hold its dominance and attract capital inflows. The only sure way Bitcoin might end November 2025 in red is if Spot Bitcoin ETFs perform very poorly throughout the month.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $109,700.

The Dogecoin price has been experiencing severe volatility and extended periods of sideways trading in recent weeks. However, seasoned analysts suggest that there’s little reason to panic. Beneath the short-term turbulence lies a long-term structure that experts believe could set the stage for a major price breakout. They suggest that the broader technical picture paints a bullish narrative, one that could eventually drive DOGE above $1 once momentum resumes. 

Long-Term Accumulation Signal Dogecoin Price Next Bull Run

According to a technical analysis presented by crypto analyst EtherNasyonal on X social media this week, the Dogecoin price is preparing for a major bull run above $1. He explained that the DOGE’s price action remains within a powerful long-term Ascending Channel, maintaining structural integrity despite ongoing price fluctuations. His analysis of the monthly chart reveals that the meme coin has been establishing a multi-year accumulation base, similar to the patterns formed before its explosive rallies in 2017 and 2021. 

EtherNasyonal highlights that momentum is quietly building above key support levels, indicating that the next expansion phase could be forming. The chart illustrates that Dogecoin, which has been trading within a rising parallel channel since 2014, is currently consolidating around the lower boundary near $0.18. 

Historically, each time Dogecoin has completed a similar descending pattern within this structure, it has initiated a parabolic move upward. The previous breakout propelled the meme coin by several thousand percent, lifting it from fractions of a cent to all-time highs above $0.70. 

Dogecoin’s current chart setup suggests a repeat of this bullish behavior. A large, rounded base pattern is visible between 2022 and 2024, reflecting steady accumulation and a potentially decreasing selling pressure. EtherNasyonal’s projection targets the upper midline of the Ascending Channel, potentially above $1, if historical patterns play out as expected. 

Dogecoin False Breakdown Hints At Potential Reversal

On shorter timeframes, crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade provides additional context to Dogecoin’s current price action. His 4-hour chart highlights a “false breakout” followed by a “false breakdown.” Dogecoin initially broke above resistance near $0.206 but failed to hold, retracing sharply to retest the lower boundary around $0.178.

This quick reversal pattern, marked by aggressive selling followed by a swift rebound, often precedes a recovery move back toward former resistance levels. Trader Tardigrade’s chart structure indicates that the breakdown beneath the horizontal support level was short-lived, with buyers likely stepping in to absorb liquidity and push prices upward. 

The chart setup suggests that DOGE could soon reclaim the $0.20 – $0.21 region as the next target zone from its current price of $0.18. If the bounce continues and momentum aligns with the broader monthly structure, this could serve as the first leg of a sustained uptrend.

Crypto analyst XForce has predicted that the XRP price could rally to $10 on a wave 3 impulsive move to the upside. The analyst also indicated that the bottom was in for XRP even as the crypto market remains in a downtrend. 

XRP Price Headed To $10 On Wave 3 Move

In an X post, XForce told XRP holders to get ready for a rally to $10 or higher, which he described as a conservative wave 3 target. He noted that there are minor market inefficiencies in the local timeframes for the XRP price. However, the analyst added that the macro chart shows clear accumulation and a solid price floor after almost a year of distribution. 

Crypto analyst CasiTrades had also predicted that the XRP price could rally to as high as $10 on the wave 3 move. However, she predicted that XRP would crash to as low as $1.4 first to complete the macro wave 2 correction, which had begun around the largest liquidation event on October 10. 

XForce indicated that this projected crash to $1.4 for the XRP price was unlikely to happen. The analyst opined that the major low was in and alluded to the macro chart, which showed that the low had been broken, but XRP bounced hard from it. He added that XRP could stay in this current range for more distribution before the next leg up, but believes that predictions about a further downtrend are all “noise.”

The XRP price has continued to range between $2.4 and $2.6 as the market recovers from the October 10 crash, which saw XRP drop to as low as $0.77 on Binance. Meanwhile, it also dropped below the psychological $2 level on other exchanges. 

One Final Drop For XRP

Crypto analyst CasiTrades doubled down on her prediction that the XRP price would witness one final crash before a rally to the upside. She noted that the altcoin is reacting exactly as expected, having rejected the Wave 4 resistance near $2.68. She added that the price is now turning bearish and the RSI is making a new low, which is starting to confirm that Wave 5 down is underway. 

CasiTrades stated that breaking below $2.42 would confirm continuation toward the lower targets at $2.03 and $1.65. These two lower levels are said to have alignment with the Wave 5 extension. The analyst again indicated that the XRP price could drop to at least $1.65, which she noted is the macro .618 retracement. 

CasiTrades opined that this projected crash should complete the final wave of the correction before a massive wave 3 impulse to the upside. She added that once the bottom forms, the next impulse should be “fast and obvious,” with the XRP price cutting through resistance on the way to new highs. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.48, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The Shiba Inu open interest has been one of the worst-performing among the top cryptocurrencies by market cap in the year 2025. While there has been a general increase in open interest across the likes of Bitcoin and Ethereum, pulling the market up with them, Shiba Inu has not followed this trajectory. Instead, the meme coin’s open interest has crashed significantly, making new 2025 lows in the process.

Shiba Inu Open Interest Crashes Below $100 Million

At the start of the year, on January 16, 2025, the Shiba Inu open interest had hit a new all-time high above $519 million despite the SHIB price action remaining relatively muted. It wasn’t long until the open interest began to decline, and it has been mostly downhill from there since.

By the start of February 2025, the Shiba Inu open interest had crashed by more than 50%, recording one of the sharpest declines in the market. However, the open interest had managed to stay above the 2024 lows as the SHIB price fluctuations kept traders interested.

Now, however, the majority of the open interest that was seen in Shiba Inu at the start of the year is almost completely gone. Data from the Coinglass website shows that the open interest has now fallen below $100 million for the first time in 2025, marking a new yearly low.

The current average of around $89 million translates to an over 80% decline in the last 9 months, painting a similar picture to the alt coin’s price, which is down 88% from its 2021 all-time highs. As this decline continues, it continues to impact the price, affecting its ability to stage a meaningful recovery.

SHIB Could Be At A Pivotal Point

As mentioned above, the last time that the Shiba Inu open interest was this low was back in 2024, but the interesting thing is that periods of low interest have often preceded some of the biggest moves. Back in August 2024, the Shiba Inu open interest had fallen to its lowest levels since 2023, but the next three months would see a rapid increase in both interest and price.

Times of low interest, such as these, have often been breeding grounds for accumulation ahead of the next move. Thus, the Shiba Inu open interest dropping to yearly lows could be setting the stage for another price rally.

The open interest in XRP and Solana (SOL) futures and options has reached a record $3 billion on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). According to the CME data, this remarkable milestone was reached during Monday’s session, which saw both XRP and Solana reach their highest level of participation. 

Both cryptocurrencies have gained traction among institutional investors, who are now treating XRP and Solana as serious alternatives to Bitcoin and Ethereum in the derivatives market.

CME’s Record $3 Billion Milestone

Data from CME Group reveals that open interest in XRP and Solana futures has climbed to about $3 billion in total value. The figure captures the total capital tied up in active contracts, serving as one of the best indicators of investor activity and confidence. 

CME data shows that around 9,900 XRP contracts and 17,400 Solana futures contracts were opened during this surge of high activity, including both standard and micro versions.

This achievement comes less than a year after CME introduced these products. Solana futures launched in March 2025 and quickly rose to prominence, followed by XRP futures in May. Both have now joined the ranks of the exchange’s most traded crypto derivatives, competing directly with Bitcoin and Ethereum futures. 

This record milestone is part of a growing interest in its digital currency instruments. Tim McCourt, Global Head of Equities, FX, and Alternative Products at CME, noted that the exchange has witnessed intense client demand for nonstop trading. In response, the CME Group had revealed plans to make cryptocurrency futures and options available for trading 24 hours a day, seven days a week, starting from early 2026, although pending approval. 

The increase in open interest highlights how XRP and Solana now dominate the altcoin derivatives scene on CME. Solana futures surpassed $1 billion in open interest by August 2025, just five months after their launch, while XRP futures achieved the same within three months. Recent data shows that XRP futures on the CME reached a notional volume of $26.9 billion in October and over 567,000 contracts traded within six months of trading. 

Institutional Interest In XRP And Solana

The record in open interest follows CME’s introduction of options on XRP and Solana futures to expand its cryptocurrency derivatives portfolio beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. This expansion allows traders to access options on SOL, Micro-SOL, XRP, and Micro-XRP futures, each offering daily, monthly, and quarterly expirations to meet different trading strategies.

The expansion also points to the growing sophistication of institutional participation in Solana and XRP derivatives. The first XRP options trade was executed on October 12 between Wintermute and Superstate. The first trade for options on SOL futures was executed on Monday, October 13, between Cumberland DRW and Galaxy.

A fresh wave of bullish optimism has swept across the meme coin community as technical analysts point to a potential explosive rally that could propel the PEPE price by more than 1,500%. This massive surge could see the meme coin breakout toward a new all-time high of $0.00012 by early 2026. 

PEPE Price Targets $0.00012 With Final Accumulation Zone

An analyst from Wins, a cryptocurrency trading school, has projected on X social media a 1,500% move in the PEPE price, forecasting a potential rally toward $0.00012. According to the chart, this bullish target aligns with a projected increase in market capitalization from $2.89 billion to $48 billion. The analysis highlights a Fibonacci Extension setup with a 2.618 target positioned near the $0.00012 level. 

The chart analysis also reveals that PEPE is consolidating within a descending wedge pattern, suggesting a strong bullish reversal once a breakout occurs. Currently, the meme coin is trading around $0.0000068, corresponding with a forecasted surge in market cap to $3 billion. 

The analyst has identified the current price range, visualized by the green accumulation box, as the final buying opportunity before the next leg upward. The pattern mirrors PEPE’s previous accumulation and breakout phase from late 2023 to early 2024, where a similar descending wedge formed before a significant price surge. 

Fibonacci retracements and extensions on the chart suggest that once PEPE clears resistance near $0.000015 and sees its market cap increase to $6 billion, momentum could accelerate toward $0.000035 and eventually reach the final target at $0.00012. The analyst has set the timeline for PEPE to achieve this target around January 12, 2026.   

PEPE Historical Setup Signals Major Price Rally

Sharing similar bullish sentiments for PEPE’s price outlook, crypto analyst Chandler wrote on X that “no one is ready for what’s coming for PEPE.” He shared a technical analysis projecting a massive rally for PEPE based on historical trends to support his bold statement. 

The comparative chart analysis overlays two distinct timeframes from September 2023 to February 2024 and September 2023 to October 2025. The chart shows repeating cyclical structures, marked by colored circles representing accumulation, breakout, correction, and consolidation phases. 

In 2023 – 2024, these patterns preceded a major upward move that took the PEPE price to a new all-time high, from $0.0000009 to $0.0000035, representing a staggering 288% increase. Chandler’s current projection suggests the meme coin is completing a similar sequence, with the blue-circled region around $0.00000728 marking a potential bottom before a powerful surge. The analyst’s forecast maps out a sharp rise to $0.000015 first, followed by a slight drop before an explosive rally above $0.00035, marking a staggering 4,708% gain from the bottom level.

Crypto analyst Steph has highlighted a high liquidity level that could spark a significant surge for the XRP price. This comes as the altcoin struggles to reclaim the psychological $3 level, which could lead to a further rally to new highs. 

Liquidity Level That Could Spark An XRP Price Surge

In an X post, Steph revealed that the liquidity around $3.2 is expanding for the XRP price and that the market is charging toward the highest cluster. He explained that there are many buy and sell orders around this level, with market makers often looking to capture liquidity at price levels with significant liquidity clusters like this one.

As such, the XRP price could rally to $3.2 at some point, reclaiming the $3 level in the process. However, the crypto market is currently on a downtrend, which makes this rally less unlikely for now. XRP has struggled to break out of its current range since the $19 billion liquidation event on October 10. 

Crypto analyst CasiTrades had recently predicted that the XRP price could still drop to as low as $1.4 before it records a bullish reversal. She claimed that this will set the stage for the next Wave 3 impulse that could send XRP toward $6.50 or $10. Meanwhile, for the projected XRP crash to be invalidated, the analyst stated that the altcoin needs to break and hold above $2.82. 

However, Steph revealed that the XRP price has formed a double bottom, which he predicts would lead to a reversal above $3. The analyst is also confident that XRP will reach a new all-time high (ATH), predicting a rally to $4.50 as he highlighted a compression on the chart. 

Why Current Price Action Is Still Bullish 

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto revealed that the XRP price is making higher highs and that the RSI is also making higher highs, which he noted means strong bullish momentum and that buyers are still in control while the trend is healthy. He added that there is no bearish divergence, so momentum is confirming the price move. 

Egrag Crypto further remarked that when the XRP price and RSI rise together, the uptrend is real and supported by strength. He suggested that XRP holders should only be worried when the price makes higher highs but the RSI makes lower highs. He explained that this is when a bearish divergence could occur, indicating weakening momentum. Meanwhile, the analyst also mentioned that a close above between $2.65 and $2.70 with confirmation is key. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.5, down over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The negative market sentiment has spread rapidly, and the Dogecoin price continues to range around $0.2 as a result. This puts the meme coin in a perilous position that could see its decline deepen from here. One thing that could make a difference would mean a rise in momentum, but volume is already down by a significant amount, so this route has remained a problem. Another major problem is the resistance mounting at $0.21 that could stop any recovery rally in its tracks.

What Happens If The Dogecoin Price Breaks $0.218

Crypto analyst Diana Sanchez has highlighted the bullish potential of Dogecoin, suggesting that the price has been showing strength. This comes with the recent market fluctuations ahead of the decision from the Federal Reserve following the FOMC meeting. At this point, though, there is an important level where there is still a lot of resistance.

The first thing the analyst points out is that despite the current struggle, the Dogecoin price has already increased by over 43%. This makes it one of the best performers among the top cryptocurrencies by market cap, and the momentum could turn bullish once again.

However, the major problem now lies at the $0.218 level, where the bears are now mounting their defense. As for now, it continues to maintain the support at $0.2, and this has become the major source of interest for the bulls who are looking to continue the rally.

The main point right now, the crypto analyst explains, is to break the resistance at $0.218. If this resistance is broken, then the Dogecoin price is expected to continue to rally. With this, the analyst says the Dogecoin price rising to the $0.5 target is no longer a dream.

Low Volume Could Be A Hindrance To Recovery

Despite the bullishness that is showing on the Dogecoin price chart, the fact that the meme coin’s daily trading remains low continues to put a damper on things. At the start of October, the daily trading volume had spiked above $20 billion before seeing a retracement.

Since then, though, the daily trading volume has continued to decline, reaching an average of $5 billion at the time of writing, as shown on the Coinglass website. So, unless there is a notable increase in the trading volume, any breakout could lack momentum, meaning the price could quickly correct and retrace its gains.

Evernorth has emerged as the latest powerhouse in institutional crypto accumulation, closing in on its ambitious XRP treasury goal. In just a few days, the firm has reached 95% of its accumulation target, marking a major milestone in XRP’s journey toward broader institutional adoption. The rapid growth of Evernorth’s reserves and its strategic partnerships has sparked renewed excitement across the XRP community, signaling what could be a pivotal shift in how institutions engage with the cryptocurrency. 

Evernorth Nears $1 Billion In XRP Holdings

A new report from CryptoQuant has revealed that Evernorth’s XRP holdings is now nearing the $1 billion funding milestone, positioning it among the top institutional holders of the cryptocurrency. According to JA Maartunn, a community analyst at CryptoQuant, Evernorth currently holds 388,710,606.03 XRP, reaching 95% of its $1 billion target. 

The company’s total XRP treasury is now valued at approximately $947,183,571, with unrealized profits of roughly $46 million generated in four days. This figure reflects an average purchase price of $2.44 per XRP, which Maartunn believes could become a defining price level for the cryptocurrency’s market trajectory.

 Notably, Evernorth’s XRP treasury comes amid a broader trend of institutional diversification toward digital assets. Earlier this year, several major crypto treasury institutions—most notably Strategy, with its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy, and The Ether Machine, with its dedicated focus on Ethereum—set the tone for large-scale crypto accumulation. 

Evernorth’s expanding holdings signal a decisive shift beyond BTC and ETH, underscoring a maturing institutional demand for alternative layer-1 assets. It also suggests that XRP may become the next frontier for institutional treasuries seeking exposure to high-liquidity, regulated crypto assets.

Evernorth’s XRP Growth Strategy 

Asheesh Birla, the CEO of Evernorth, introduced the treasury company last week, on October 20, through an X post. He described it as an institutional vehicle built to propel XRP’s global adoption. The announcement detailed the company’s plans to go public through a SPAC merger with Armada Acquisition Corp II (NASDAQ:AACI), targeting gross proceeds of more than $1 billion.

Evernorth’s growth strategy includes acquiring XRP through innovative financial structures designed to maximize XRP per share and expanding internationally into key markets like Japan and South Korea. The company also plans to diversify its yield generation through risk-mitigated treasury deployment. These initiatives reflect a deliberate, structured approach toward building a long-term institutional presence around XRP.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has also praised Birla’s initiative, noting Ripple’s partnership and investment alongside prominent firms such as SBI Holdings, Pantera Capital, Kraken, GSR, and Rippleworks. Garlinghouse said that Evernorth’s participation in institutional lending, liquidity provision, and DeFi yield opportunities will be instrumental in expanding XRP’s utility. Ripple’s CTO, David Schwartz, who joins Evernorth as a strategic advisor, echoed this sentiment, expressing enthusiasm for building scalable opportunities for XRP across DeFi and capital markets.

Crypto analyst Adez has revealed what most traders are missing following the Bitcoin price rally to $116,000 earlier this week. The analyst suggested there is no reason to be bullish right now, as BTC is likely to decline further before breaking out to the upside. 

What Traders Are Missing From The Bitcoin Price Action

In an X post, Adez noted that the Bitcoin price pumped from around $111,000 to $115,500 and that everyone thinks a breakout is happening. However, the analyst opined that the rally was just a trap. He explained that BTC actually swept the Value Area High at $114,600, but the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) barely moved. 

Adez further revealed that the open interest was completely flat, indicating that zero money came in for the move on Binance. The funding rate was also still at 0.01%, which is “dead neutral,” and nobody was excited about the Bitcoin price rally. In other words, he explained that the breakout happened with no institutional support, no new capital, and no retail FOMO, which is why the analyst believes the move was just a liquidity grab. 

As to what happens next, Adez stated that this is a classic pattern after sweeping resistance with weak conviction, which leads to a sharp reversal. He urged investors and traders to watch the next few H4 candles to see if the Bitcoin price rejects back below $114,600, forms a lower low, and the CVD starts dropping. 

For a break of structure to be confirmed, the Bitcoin price needs to break below the H1 at 114,839 and then the H4 at 113,560. Once that happens, Adez predicts that there is an 85% probability that BTC will head to the real support between $104,000 and $106,000 within seven to ten days. Notably, BTC has broken these two levels and may now be at risk of dropping to these support levels as the analyst has predicted. 

Why This Price Action Is Plausible

Adez explained that this Bitcoin price action makes sense because November is historically 60% bullish and that Q4 has averaged 65% wins. However, he noted that these rallies didn’t start from thin air at $115,000. Instead, they start from value zones where institutions can accumulate before BTC rallies. 

The analyst highlighted $109,000 as the point of control, while between $104,000 and $106,000 is the Value Area Low, where there are also billions in buy orders. He added that the current Bitcoin price action is floating above real support, which is exactly where smart money dumps before the real move begins. 

As such, Adez expects retail to buy the breakout at $115,000 and get stopped out on the reversal. Then, they miss the real entry between $104,000 and $106,000. On the other hand, Smart Money sells into this pump, waits for the sweep down, then loads up at between $104,000 and $106,000 and rides the Bitcoin price rally to above $130,000. 

At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $113,000, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Technical analyst Charting Guy has shared a new perspective on the relationship between XRP and Ethereum, identifying a setup that he believes could lead to short-term XRP outperformance. 

His analysis, which was posted on the social media platform X, focuses on the XRP/ETH weekly chart, where he highlighted the formation of a bullish divergence that has not appeared since mid-2024. The development, he says, signals a constructive shift in momentum that will favor XRP’s price action over Ethereum for the next three months.

A Rare Weekly Bullish Divergence Favors XRP Over Ethereum

In his update, Charting Guy explained that the XRP/ETH weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) was previously rejected but has now reversed into a bullish divergence. The RSI has turned upward from a low region, while the price closed at a lower low last week, which is a tell-tale sign of waning selling pressure and XRP building strength against Ethereum.

This green-marked divergence on the analyst’s XRP/ETH chart, which is shown below, mimics a setup that preceded another major swing in XRP’s favor. The yellow RSI moving average has also started to flatten, and this is another signal that momentum could be stabilizing before a breakout. 

The last time this same configuration occurred was in June 2024, just before XRP began a multi-month surge against Ethereum. Back then, the XRP/ETH pair rose from 0.00015 to as high as 0.0003 in August 2024, before retracing and then finally picking up again in November 2024.

The pattern outlined by the analyst shows XRP/ETH currently consolidating near the 0.00063 ratio level. This time, the setup looks equally compelling. The RSI’s upward curve points to market participation on the XRP side, while Ethereum’s relative momentum continues to slow. If the pattern repeats, it could mark the start of another short-term cycle of the token strength against ETH.

Short-Term Projection Favors XRP

As shown by the projection drawn in blue on the chart above, Charting Guy visualized a scenario where XRP climbs sharply relative to Ethereum. The projection uses the performance of the pair between July 2024 and March 2025 to predict the next move. From here, the projection places the XRP/ETH pair trading above 0.00015 by March 2026.

He concluded his analysis by stating, “I am VERY bullish on $XRP > $ETH the next 3 months.” His three-month forecast implies that XRP could regain a leadership position among major altcoins during the next quarter. If the token manages to outperform Ethereum as predicted, it will close the gap in their market cap.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.64 with a $158 billion market cap. Ethereum, on the other hand, is trading at $4,025 with a $486 billion market cap.

After a turbulent month, the Dogecoin price looks to stabilizing just around the $0.2 level, and it continues to show strength at this level. However, there are some developments on the meme coin’s chart that suggest that there could be some bearish headwinds that could lead to another crash. Crypto analyst MyCryptoParadise outlines this in a recent analysis, showing the possible directions that the Dogecoin price could be headed in as the market unfolds.

Dogecoin Price Is Facing Strong Resistance

The first thing that stands out is that the crypto analyst explains that the Dogecoin price is already seeing a lot of resistance, especially on the 4-Hour chart. Since the price was rejected below $0.21, it suggests that bears are already putting a lot of pressure on the price at this level.

Another interesting chart is the Dogecoin 1-Hour chart that shows a breakdown in the Rising Wedge. The fact that this breakdown occurred with bearish divergence increases the possibilities of a price decrease, pushing it back down toward the next major support.

The crypto analyst also shows that this downward move is still supported by the confluence that has shown up. On the Dogecoin 1-Hour chart, the 200EMA has also been acting as a dynamic resistance, adding more pressure to an already bearish chart.

From here, the crypto analyst advises investors to be cautious before entering into the meme coin. For the best time to enter, it is best to wait for the price breakdown toward lower levels before taking a position. If the current trend plays out, then it could see another 10% breakdown.

In the event of this breakdown, then the next major level lies just above $0.18, which is where support is piling up. A cleaner bearish candlestick pattern would ensure an entry with lower risk, before the Dogecoin price begins another bounce.

However, just like with any setup, there is still the possibility for invalidation and this time, the bulls could do it. The Dogecoin price would have to break out and make a candle above the resistance zone on the 4-Hour chart. Such a sustained break would invalidate the bearish setup and create room for a bullish continuation.
