Ethereum attempted a recovery, briefly crossing ₹1.66 lakh, but selling pressure dragged it back below ₹1.60 lakh. The price is now under key resistance levels, with ₹1.61 lakh and ₹1.66 lakh acting as major barriers. If ETH breaks above ₹1.66 lakh, it could rally toward ₹1.73 lakh. However, failure to do so may lead to another drop toward ₹1.54 lakh or lower. Technical indicators show growing bearish momentum, and traders are watching closely for a breakout or further downside in the coming sessions.

Bitcoin slipped below $84,000 after President Trump announced sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs, triggering volatility across crypto markets. The TRUMP token was the day’s biggest loser, dropping nearly 8%, while the overall market cap fell to $2.68 trillion. Ethereum and Solana also saw sharp declines. Despite the dip, analysts note strong institutional interest and ETF inflows, hinting at underlying bullish momentum. Experts warn of short-term uncertainty but expect BTC to test resistance around $87,800 if current support at $81,700 holds.

Ripple’s new stablecoin RLUSD is rapidly gaining traction, already facilitating over $30B in global transfers and becoming a crucial part of Ripple’s payment infrastructure. Despite RLUSD’s success, XRP continues to struggle under key resistance around $2.20. With RSI still bearish and price stuck below trendline resistance, XRP may retest March lows unless bulls stage a breakout. The contrast highlights a classic crypto pattern—strong ecosystem growth clashing with short-term price weakness. A breakout could flip the narrative fast.

While some claim Bitcoin is in a new bear market after over two months of decline, history tells a different story. Back in 2024, BTC dropped by 32% from mid-March to early September—nearly 6 months of downtrend—before blasting to new all-time highs. Temporary pullbacks don’t always mean a bear market… sometimes, they’re just the calm before the breakout.

Amid President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has hit its lowest since October 2024, losing nearly 4% in Q1 alone. While economists warn of recession risks and worsening consumer strain, crypto analysts see a silver lining. A weaker dollar could boost Bitcoin in the short term, with experts like Ciara Sun and Arthur Hayes predicting bullish momentum if BTC stays above $76.5K. Still, market uncertainty looms as global tensions and policy shifts unfold.

A sudden spike in market volatility triggered $450 million in crypto futures liquidations within 24 hours, as President Trump imposed steep new tariffs on global exports. Bitcoin briefly touched $87K before dropping to $83.5K, while Ether and XRP also reversed gains. The turbulence led to unusual liquidations on both long and short positions, signaling trader uncertainty amid economic shifts. BTC and ETH futures alone saw nearly $300M in forced liquidations, reflecting a highly unstable market. Read More

Ripple has not officially announced a date for its Initial Public Offering (IPO), but industry experts predict it could happen within the next 12 to 18 months. The speculation intensified after Ripple withdrew its cross-appeal against the SEC, resolving legal uncertainties around XRP. While CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed that an IPO is a natural next step, he also noted it’s not a top priority, with the company currently focusing more on acquisitions. However, favorable regulatory conditions and growing investor interest may accelerate the IPO timeline.
