XRP price target talk is picking up again this week, and right now the number getting the most attention is $2.20.

Tokenized versions of major US stocks are going live on Base, Coinbase’s Ethereum layer-2 network. Base says tokenized stocks issued by top US crypto exchange Coinbase are now live on the chain. The stocks are built on the network’s native token B20, which represent real shares held 1:1 by a regulated custodian in a bankruptcy-remote structure. Eligible non-US users can hold fractional shares of companies including Apple and NVIDIA directly in self-custody wallets. The tokenized stocks allow for 24/7 on-chain trading. Base is highlighting the launch with a clear message. “Tokenized stocks are live on Base, and ready for builders.” The announcement emphasizes a bigger vision for on-chain finance. “[On Monday], we took a big step towards that vision as tokenized stocks issued by Coinbase, built on the B20 standard, are now live natively on Base. These are real shares, held 1:1 by a regulated custodian, owned outright by whoever holds the toke...

Bitcoin’s (BTC) bullish ‘Uptober’ reputation was shattered this year after the cryptocurrency ended October with a nearly 4% loss, marking its worst October performance since 2014. Now, according to cryptocurrency analyst and TradingView contributor TradingShot, the weak monthly close may signal the start of a deeper correction, potentially sending Bitcoin toward the $87,000 region in the weeks ahead. Bitcoin price analysis chart. Source: Finbold The analyst pointed to a fractal pattern mirroring Bitcoin’s price action between December 2024 and February 2025. During that period, BTC rejected a descending trendline, lost its higher-lows support structure, and ultimately fell roughly 32% from its all-time high.  The recent move, marked by a rejection at the 1-day 50-day moving average (MA), resistance on a descending highs trendline, and stalling at the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement, closely resembles that earlier setup. Notably, since mid-August, Bitcoin has made ...

The Bitcoin price tumbled 4% in October, breaking its seven-year ‘Uptober’ streak as ETF outflows, profit-taking, and macro jitters weighed on the market. An Analysis by Fortune showed it was Bitcoin’s fourth-worst October performance since 2013 and the worst in the past seven years. That left BTC trailing the S&P 500 stock index, which rose 2.3%. The sell-off came as more than $550 million flowed out of major Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs late in the month, with analysts saying profit-taking also played a part as Bitcoin treasury firms, including Michael Saylor’s Strategy, also slowed their BTC buying. We just experienced the first red October in 7 years! We also had an historic liquidation in October! UPTOBER was a fraud, but MOONVEMBER?? imho; if you can, DCA more! if you can’t, DO NOT panic sell your bags for cheap!

A cryptocurrency trading expert has suggested that the ongoing Bitcoin (BTC) sell-off will likely escalate in the coming weeks, noting that the asset is facing a possible capitulation event . In a TradingView post on August 3, analyst Alan Santana noted that this projection is based on a detailed examination of historical price movements and critical technical indicators, which forewarn investors of significant market turbulence ahead. According to the expert, Bitcoin surged past $70,000 on July 29, 2024, but the euphoria was short-lived. The cryptocurrency couldn’t sustain this price level for even 15 minutes, swiftly falling below the mark and trading below $65,000.
