Top altcoins, Ripple, Cardano, and Solana, hold steady on Thursday, halting the prevailing decline linked to hot US inflation data and the post-US midterms period. The brief pause suggests that the markets have priced in October’s hot CPI of 0.4%, beating the 0.3% market expectation.
Ripple pares losses on Thursday, trading around $1.05 amid a largely lethargic broader cryptocurrency market. Bulls have found no relief since the sharp correction on November 5 and are banking on support between $1.00 and $1.05 to push for range trading ahead of fresh recovery attempts.
Bitcoin corrects near a key support range near $73,000 on Thursday, trading alongside altcoin majors Ethereum and Ripple. The smart contract token, ETH, holds above its $2,000 demand area, while the remittance token XRP upholds technical weakness, raising correction odds below $1.00.
Pi Network price is holding steady around $0.0700 at press time on Thursday, consolidating around the round figure after Tuesday’s 8% rebound. The rebound coincided with a massive outflow of more than 590 million PI tokens from the OKX exchange wallet, suggesting reduced downside pressure.
Bitcoin (BTC) remains under pressure, down over 3% this week, trading near $75,500 on Friday and heading for its fifth straight weekly loss. Persistent outflows from US-listed BTC spot Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), a sharp sell-off in US technology stocks, and rising market liquidations are weighing on sentiment and limiting Crypto King’s recovery attempts.
