BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) – Nearly two months after the death of Kristy Harrison in Tarrant, no arrests have been made. Now, Crime Stoppers of Metro Alabama is hoping someone will step up and provide the break this case needs.
If you have information that leads to a conviction in the death of 35-year-old Kristy Denise Harrison, you could be eligible for a $5,000 reward. But you can also help provide closure for Harrison’s loved ones.
Police told WBRC after the Aug. 31 shooting that they believe it was the result of an argument between two other women over a vehicle and did not involve Harrison. That day around 4 P.M., police were called to a home on Ford Avenue for reports of shots being fired. At that time, no one was injured. However, police say someone came back that night and fired into the home.
Bob Copus, Crime Stoppers Executive Director, said, “Kristy Denise Harrison has been killed, and police need to know who did it, and why. Let’s bring this situation to a close.”
If you know anything relating to this case, contact Tarrant Police or Crime Stoppers to remain anonymous. Again, you could receive a cash reward of up to $5,000.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market have ticked up despite macro headwinds, with data suggesting a shift in market dynamics as large bag holders hold firm despite the wipeout in leveraged positions earlier this month.
The "dolphin" cohort has continued Bitcoin accumulation even after the Black Friday event that liquidated $19 billion from the markets, keeping the bull run’s long-term structure intact, according to a CryptoQuant report on Thursday. 
The trading and market analysis firm defines a dolphin as an entity holding between 100 BTC and 1,000 BTC. That differs from whales, which hold amounts above that upper range.
“Their behavior plays a decisive role in shaping market direction as a growing accumulation from this group historically aligns with upward price momentum,” CryptoQuant analysts wrote.
While the annual holdings growth of this investor group is considered “strong” at 907,000 BTC, the report highlights near-term caution, noting how the 30-day balance has fallen below its 30-day moving average, signaling that short-term demand is waning. 
A catalyst, such as sustained inflows from exchange-traded funds, could trigger renewed bullish momentum, analysts previously told Decrypt.
“The current setup for Bitcoin and Ethereum is rare,” Quinn Thompson, CIO of Lekker Capital, said in a Monday tweet, referring to the Black Friday liquidation cascade. “Opportunity ahead is similar to pre-Trump victory '24.”
That view is supported by historical data. 
After a 30% to 40% rise in open interest, as seen on October 10, there’s a 75% chance that Bitcoin’s return in the next three months is positive, according to Valter Rebelo, head of digital assets at Empiricus, in a Thursday tweet. 
The analysis noted that Bitcoin’s mean performance in the next 90 days is around 25.9%.
Bitcoin and Ethereum are up roughly 2% over 24 hours, but altcoins like World Liberty Financial, Hyperliquid, and Solana have posted 13%, 5.9%, and 5.8% returns respectively, per CoinGecko data. 
And there’s hope for renewed bullish momentum and investor risk appetite, as seen in the uptick in altcoin volume dominance relative to Bitcoin and Ethereum. 
While trading volume for the top two cryptocurrencies by market cap has tanked since October 21, altcoin volume has ticked up by 33% to 46%, per CoinGlass data, in a possible sign that traders have once again begun speculating on the broader crypto market.

XRP continues to struggle for bullish momentum as market sentiment remains heavily bearish. After weeks of declining prices and fading trading volume, the token is still trading below the $2.5 mark, with traders growing increasingly cautious. While some analysts interpret this as a cooling-off period before the next potential expansion phase, fear and uncertainty continue to dominate the market’s short-term outlook.
Adding to the tension, top CryptoQuant analyst Maartunn revealed that Chris Larsen, Ripple’s co-founder, has realized over $764 million in profits since January 2018 from XRP-related sales. According to on-chain data, Larsen’s selling activity tends to coincide with local price peaks — a pattern that raises questions about whether current market behavior could signal another turning point.
Although such sales are not uncommon among large holders, timing and consistency are key factors that often influence investor sentiment. For many, these moves highlight the delicate balance between long-term strategic profit-taking and the perception of insider confidence in the project’s future. As XRP battles to hold current levels, the market will be closely watching whether institutional players and insiders maintain their exposure — or continue to cash out amid growing volatility.
Chris Larsen’s Recurring Profit-Taking and the Fragile State of Altcoins
According to analyst Maartunn, Chris Larsen’s latest XRP sale is connected to EvernorthXRP, an entity believed to be one of the wallets managing Ripple-linked holdings and distributions. While this particular transaction might appear routine, Maartunn points out that it fits a recurring pattern — Larsen has consistently realized large profits close to local market highs. Each time XRP experiences a rally, significant selling activity from wallets tied to Ripple executives tends to follow.
This recurring behavior fuels debate around insider timing and investor sentiment. While such moves can be interpreted as simple portfolio rebalancing, they often occur when retail enthusiasm peaks, amplifying uncertainty during already fragile market conditions. The timing of Larsen’s sales — amid a broader altcoin correction — has intensified speculation that large holders are preparing for extended market weakness.
The current environment for altcoins remains particularly delicate. Many tokens are sitting near long-term support zones, trading well below their 200-day moving averages. Historically, altcoins have only regained strong bullish momentum after Bitcoin has convincingly broken above its all-time high (ATH). Without this confirmation from BTC, capital tends to stay conservative, favoring liquidity and safety over speculation.
In essence, Larsen’s consistent profit-taking and the wider altcoin stagnation highlight the market’s transitional phase. Until Bitcoin reasserts dominance through a clean breakout, most altcoins — including XRP — are likely to face muted inflows and persistent volatility. Investors are now watching whether Bitcoin’s next major move will reignite confidence across the crypto landscape or confirm that the current rally was just another temporary bounce in an uncertain cycle.
XRP Price Analysis: Testing Support as Momentum Fades
XRP continues to trade under pressure, consolidating around the $2.40 zone after failing to reclaim its short-term moving averages. The 3-day chart shows the token struggling below both the 50-day and 100-day moving averages, signaling persistent bearish momentum. The recent rejection near the $2.60–$2.70 area aligns with a key resistance cluster that has consistently capped upside attempts since early October.
Despite the current weakness, XRP has managed to hold above the 200-day moving average, which currently sits near $2.00 — a level that has historically acted as strong dynamic support. If this level fails, the next downside target could lie around $1.80–$1.90, where the previous accumulation zone formed earlier this year.
On the upside, bulls would need to push the price decisively above $2.70 to regain control and confirm a short-term trend reversal. Such a move would likely attract fresh liquidity and shift sentiment toward recovery.
XRP remains in a vulnerable position, with price action suggesting indecision and a lack of strong buying volume. As Bitcoin continues to dictate broader market direction, XRP’s ability to hold above its 200-day moving average will be crucial to avoid deeper losses in the sessions ahead.

What’s Next for Ripple’s Price as Whales Start an XRP Sell-Off  CryptoPotato

US President Donald Trump has said he is immediately ending all trade negotiations with Canada.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote that the country had run an advert featuring former US President Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about tariffs.
"Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED," Trump wrote late on Thursday.
The US president has imposed a 35% levy on Canadian imports, although he has allowed exemptions for goods that fall under the USMCA – a free trade agreement with Mexico and Canada that Trump negotiated during his first term.
In the minute-long advert published by the Ontario government last week, Reagan's voice is heard narrating over images that include the New York Stock Exchange and cranes adorned with both US and Canadian flags.
The video excerpts a 1987 national radio address by Reagan that focused on foreign trade.
"When someone says let's impose tariffs on foreign imports, it looks like they're doing the patriotic thing by protecting American products and jobs. And sometimes, for a short while it works, but only for a short time," Reagan says.
"But over the long run, such trade barriers hurt every American, worker and consumer.
"High tariffs inevitably lead to retaliation by foreign countries and the triggering of fierce trade wars… Markets shrink and collapse, businesses and industries shut down and millions of people lose their jobs," Reagan adds.
In the post accompanying the video, Ontario Premier Doug Ford wrote that "we'll never stop making the case against American tariffs on Canada."
In a post on X, the Ronald Reagan Foundation said that the Ontario government had used "selective audio and video" of the former US president's remarks on tariffs.
"The Government of Ontario did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks," the statement added.
The foundation said the advert "misrepresents" the former president's address, without specifying why.
It said the foundation is "reviewing its legal options".
The advert was run as part of a campaign worth $75m Canadian dollars (£40m; $54m) on mainstream TV channels in the US.
Trump has also imposed sector-specific levies on Canadian goods, including 50% on metals and 25% on automobiles.
The White House's global tariffs – particularly on steel, aluminium and cars – have hit Canada hard, forcing job losses and putting pressure on businesses.
China's embassy in Washington also used a similar Reagan clip in a post on X to cast doubt on Trump's global tariffs earlier this year.

The ground stop also hit Horizon Air, which is operated by Alaska Airlines, according to an advisory by the Federal Aviation Administration.
It follows a sweeping FBI investigation into illegal sports betting and rigged, mafia-linked poker games.
Immigrant doctors, many of them from India, are the lifeline of the US healthcare system, especially in rural areas.
The programme helps 40 million low-income Americans afford groceries – but the government shutdown has funds running dry.
Prosecutors said the elaborate plot, which allegedly netted $7m from victims, belonged in a Hollywood film.

The crypto trader who supposedly made millions shorting the crypto market before US President Donald Trump’s tariff announcement has believed to have profited again after betting that Trump would pardon the Binance founder. 
Onchain sleuth Euan pointed to Etherscan data to make the connection between the trader and the Polymarket account. The crypto wallet reportedly made $56,522 on Polymarket by betting that Trump would pardon Changpeng “CZ” Zhao sometime in 2025. 

The crypto trader had already become suspected in crypto circles for having access to insider knowledge after their tightly timed Bitcoin and Ethereum shorts — just hours before Trump’s tariff announcement sent prices falling. 
Some believe the trader must also have known about the pardon. 
Crypto exec Garett Jin denies owning the wallet address
“Looking like obvious insider knowledge,” onchain investigator Coffeezilla said in an X post to his 736,600 followers on Thursday, while resharing a post from onchain sleuth Eye, who said he “knows something we don’t know.” 
Former BitForex CEO Garrett Jin has previously denied being behind the crypto wallet, which opened up a short position on Bitcoin less than an hour before Trump announced “a tariff of 100% on China” on Oct. 10.
Jin reiterated that he had “no connection with the Trump family” and denied allegations of insider trading after crypto researcher Eye claimed he controlled a wallet address used by a whale to short Bitcoin.
In a separate X post a few days later on Oct. 13, Jin said, “The fund isn’t mine — it’s my clients’. We run nodes and provide in-house insights for them.”
Market participants say the trade “was obvious” anyway
Swan Desk CEO Jacob King said in an X post on Thursday that the pardon “was obvious,” revealing that he made $956,000 in profit betting that Trump would pardon Zhao.
“Especially after CZ invested over $2B into WLFUSD Stablecoin. That move practically screamed pay-for-pardon,” King said.

Meanwhile, crypto commentator Abbas also questioned the insider trading allegations. 
Abbas said, “You really think someone with access to the President of the United States would use insider information to make $56k?” 
Abbas said the pardon wasn’t an “extremely unlikely event” and has been spoken about “forever.”
