XRP snapped a three-day winning streak on Tuesday, October 21, with the US Senate stalemate extending to Day 21. The token failed to break out from $2.5, leading to a pullback to the $2.4 level as traders locked in profits. The prolonged US government shutdown has continued to delay the launch of XRP-spot ETFs, previously expected to begin trading by Monday, October 20. Grayscale, 21Shares, and Bitwise had final decision deadlines of October 18, 19, and 20. Crucially, analysts had expected the SEC to approve all seven spot ETFs on October 17 to prevent any first-to-market advantage. Canary Capital, CoinShares, and WisdomTree are likely to face approval delays for their S-1 forms, postponing the anticipated inflow of institutional money into XRP-spot ETFs. For XRP-spot ETF issuers, the delay to SEC approvals could mean increased competition with other crypto-spot ETFs, potentially dampening demand. Eric Balchunas, Bloomberg Intelligence senior ETF analyst, shared details of pending crypto-spot ETF launches, stating: “There’s now 155 crypto ETP filings tracking 35 different digital assets. Could easily end up seeing over 200 hit mkt in next 12mo. Total land rush.” According to the list compiled by Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst James Seyffart, there have been 23 Solana-spot and 23 BTC-spot ETF filings since 2024, topping the table. XRP-spot ETF filings totaled 20, while there were 10 ETH-spot ETF filings. The large numbers underscored the competitive landscape. The conclusion of the SEC vs. Ripple case, following the appeal withdrawals, raised expectations of a swift approval of XRP-spot ETFs. However, the SEC’s pushback on green-lighting spot ETFs means XRP-spot ETF issuers could face stern competition. The SEC could approve all crypto-spot ETFs to prevent one token from having a first-to-market advantage. Nate Geraci, NovaDius Wealth Management President, commented on the sheer number of planned crypto-spot ETF launches, stating: “My takeaway from this… Highly bullish on index-based & actively managed crypto ETFs. No way tradefi investors ready to navigate all of these single tokens. They’re going to take a diversified, shotgun approach to an emerging asset class. Seems obvious.” Notably, the US Senate impasse and delays to XRP-spot ETF launches overshadowed news of Evernorth planning to build a $1 billion XRP treasury reserve. Market experts anticipate strong demand for XRP as a treasury reserve asset key to future price gains. XRP fell 2.95% on Tuesday, October 21, partially reversing the previous day’s 4.47% rally to close at $2.4242. The token underperformed the broader crypto market, which dropped 2.13%. The pullback left XRP trading well below the 50-day and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), reaffirming a bearish bias. Key technical levels to watch include: In the coming sessions, several scenarios could influence near-term price trends: Bearish Scenario: Risks Below $2.4 These bearish events could push XRP toward the $2.4 level. A drop below $2.4 may enable the bears to target the $2.0 psychological support level. Bullish Scenario: Path to $3 These bullish scenarios could send XRP above the $2.5 level, bringing $2.7 into sight. A sustained move through $2.7 would open the door to testing resistance at $3.0. XRP’s near-term price outlook hinges on the shutdown. A continued delay could see XRP give up recent gains, given the absence of sticky institutional money. Traders should closely monitor developments in Washington, given that a government reopening would enable the SEC to approve the S-1s. XRP could approach and potentially break above the $3.0 handle if the US Senate passes a stopgap funding bill. A government reopening could deliver a perfect storm, as analysts bet on multiple Fed rate cuts, XRP-spot ETF launches, and increasing XRP stockpiling for treasury reserve purposes. Crucially, a government reopening would also put the spotlight on the Market Structure Bill. Crypto-friendly legislation may boost sentiment, potentially sending XRP to new highs. Capitol Hill holds the key to XRP’s next move. A Senate vote on a stopgap funding bill could determine whether XRP reclaims $3 or slides toward $2. Traders should closely monitor Capitol Hill and US-China trade headlines.

June 26, 2024Rhoda GistloverExtra0 Bedge, the photographer hired for Davido’s wedding, hilariously recounts how the singer mistook him for a stranger and shooed him away when he tried to direct him for a pose. Sharing the amusing incident on his Twitter account, @bedge, he revealed that he found it quite amusing. It seems that Davido didn’t recognize Bedge as the official photographer and assumed he was just a random person. The man’s tweet reads; “Funniest part of yesterday was going up to David to pose him and he told me to gerrifuck cause him no sabi me😂 bro too rich he didn’t know what he bought” See the post below Netizens reactions to the post here @kayzywizzzy stated: “If na me I no go release their wedding pictures till he beg me” @Ejude44 opined: “that place was too crowded, and the hirings were probably done by third parties. No way he‘d recognize everyone 😂” @emrayiam claimed: “Davido high yesterday, na him day of joy don’t blame him” @DivineAlfred wrote: “It’s not about bro being too rich, it’s about the second party being insignificant.” @michaelamiri commented: “If na me I go just waka go house na them go find me”

This is where the outcome is expected to determine BTC’s overall direction and confirm a continuation of a bull market or bear market correction. In an X post, an institutional-grade reporter, Bitcoin Vector, has highlighted that BTC has entered its decisive battleground between $110,000 and $115,000, which could determine the trajectory of the entire cycle. In the past week, spot demand, which is the engine of sustained rallies, was notably weak and capped by the escalating US-China trade tensions. As those tensions eased, that spot demand showed signs of returning, allowing BTC to claw its way back above the critical $110,000 level. Despite recovery back into the battleground, momentum remains negative and flat. Without sustained inflow and spot demand, the bullish structure could fade fast, leaving BTC exposed to another pullback. However, if demand holds and momentum turns up, BTC advances deeper into the battleground. A failure to maintain this range and BTC may risk retreating again and raising the white flag. A full-time crypto trader, Sykodelic, has also offered a highly optimistic prediction that Bitcoin will be back to an All-Time High (ATH) by the end of the month. The market is still in uncertainty and fear, where BTC thrives for its next leg higher. This is the stage of the cycle where disbelief dominates. As a result, traders convince themselves the rally is over, and that’s when BTC starts to move again. By the time BTC approaches its previous highs, traders will finally believe again, which often happens when another long flush clears out late entrants. Technically, BTC price is moving back above the 4-hour 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). Each time, Bitcoin successfully retests this level as support, the price continues to expand higher. “I think the worst is behind us,” Sykodelic noted. The current Bitcoin market is in a supply tug-of-war between two powerful forces. According to the ambassador of MGBX_EN, BitBull, long-term holders (LTHs) have been constantly offloading their coins, while institutions are aggressively absorbing the supply through Spot ETFs and Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs). Meanwhile, the treasury holdings have quietly surpassed $120 billion, with BTC still dominating the stack. Spot ETFs alone have absorbed tens of thousands of coins this quarter, proving that institutional demand remains strong. However, LTHs are still selling faster than ETFs, and DATs can absorb. Historically, when this kind of accelerated LTH distribution occurs, BTC tends to lose short-term momentum. This is not a bearish setup, but it does imply that the upside remains temporarily capped until the selling pressure fades. Thus, institutions are buying the strength, not the bottoms. Ultimately, the next major breakout hinges on when long-term holders stop distributing and return to accumulation mode.
