Ripple’s XRP is on a slippery slope, as the leading altcoin struggles to hold above $3. Its price slides to the $2.80 level every time it reclaims the $3 range. However, several analysts have called the altcoin’s dip a buying opportunity before it breaks out in price. Swing traders have made the most out of XRP’s dip from $3 to $2.80. They took an entry position at $2.80 with a price target of $3 and sold after it got there. It happened thrice in a month and could repeat this time around.

The Bitcoin price dropped 1% in the last 24 hours to trade at $121,453 as of 4 a.m EST on a 27% decrease in trading volume to $59.41 billion. This comes after trader Peter Brandt told his 810k followers on X that Bitcoin could experience a dramatic surge soon, possibly exploding as high as $185,000 per coin.

Veteran trader Peter Brandt just dropped a bomb: If $BTC doesn’t top out soon, we’re heading into move well beyond $150K, maybe even $185K. Cycles don’t lie… and this one’s three-for-three.

Zac Prince of BlockFi bankruptcy fame has been named as managing director of Galaxy Digital’s new 8% APY yield product. While slowly leading BlockFi into bankruptcy, Prince advertised interest rates on Circle’s USD stablecoin of 7.5%. Now as head of Galaxy One, he’s advertising 8% APY on USD. With funds “generated by Galaxy’s institutional lending business,” Galaxy One promises to pay 8% APY on $25,000 minimum deposits of US accredited investors. The program is technically an investment note of a subsidiary of Mike Novogratz’s Galaxy Digital Inc. and isn’t FDIC insured. “Expectations are clear: more yield,” wrote Prince in a press release this morning. Galaxy One customers may auto-reinvest their interest into bitcoin, ether, and solana. Prior to BlockFi’s bankruptcy, Prince told Bloomberg, “It’s like you got strapped into a rocket ship and it’s taking off.” His startup at the time had just amassed $13 billion from customers and added Visa and Fidelity part...

SHIB has dipped by nearly 40% year-to-date, and investors are losing a substantial amount of money on the token. The latest data from Etherscan indicates that the number of Shiba Inu holders has declined by 0.006% for the first time in two years. The development is making the dog-themed token bearish as new investors are skeptical about taking an entry position. The fear of losing money is the primary cause, while the token has lost its hype and buzz. In addition, data from Coingecko shows that Shiba Inu’s 24-hour trading volume has dipped by 32%. Its daily trading volume has plummeted to $219 million, indicating fewer buying and selling activities. The move has dampened its price, making it trade in the charts backward. While the upward price trajectory moves at a snail’s pace, the dip occurs much faster. The glaring difference is what’s making SHIB the least chosen investment among cryptocurrency traders.

Naval Ravikant earned millions of impressions for a controversial assertion this week that Zcash (ZEC) is insurance against Bitcoin (BTC). Almost nobody agreed with him. In various posts on social media, the crypto community pointed out the differences between insurance and price performance, the positive correlation between ZEC and BTC, the inferior performance of ZEC, Naval’s financial conflict of interest in promoting his early allocation of ZEC, and Zcash’s pro-VC and anti-cypherpunk culture of compliance. Insurance versus a price rally Naval’s citation for this claim was a price chart of ZEC embedded in his post. He selected a timeframe of less than two months in order to manufacture an up-only rally from $49 to $68. This citation fails on multiple levels. First of all, the price of something going up doesn’t mean that it’s insurance. Prices of thousands of publicly traded assets which insure nothing — options, for example — rally by tho...

The United States federal government entered a shutdown at 12:01 a.m. EDT on the 1st of October 2025 after Congress failed to approve new funding legislation.
