Algorand price in tug of war as indecision mounts, but 35% move imminent

Algorand price is locked within a consolidation pattern as ALGO fails to show signs of directional intentions. The altcoin confuses forecasts as the token registers lower highs and higher lows. A decisive break above or below the prevailing chart pattern could signal a 35% move.

Ethereum price looks to retest sub-$3900 after Saturday’s dead cat bounce

Ethereum, the no.2 most dominant cryptocurrency, is trading on a slippery slope this Sunday, reversing a part of Saturday’s impressive rebound from one-week lows of $3835. In doing so, ETH price is shedding about 1% on the day, trading around mid-$4000.

Decentraland Price Prediction: MANA ready to rally toward the round level of $5

Decentraland price has been consolidating after its massive run toward its all-time high at $5.89 on November 25. MANA appears to be ready to escape its recent downtrend as it nears a critical hurdle. Slicing above the crucial line of resistance could unleash 36% gains for the token.

XRP approaches key support as risk-off sentiment deepens

Ripple (XRP) is trading at $1.06 on Monday, maintaining its position within a broader bearish trend. The token’s technical outlook continues to deteriorate, pressured by declining retail participation. Appetite for risk assets remains lethargic, as reflected in the Fear & Greed Index, which is embedded in the Fear territory at 28.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP extend decline amid renewed risk-averse sentiment

The Bitcoin futures yield collapse: Once over 20%, now less than Treasury notes

Once a goldmine for carry traders, Bitcoin futures have flipped, consistently underperforming plain‑vanilla U.S. Treasuries every month since February. Carry trades consistently yielded 20% or more across regulated and unregulated crypto exchanges during the 2021 bull market. The strategy involved shorting Bitcoin futures while simultaneously buying a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF).

The crypto market is moving in the opposite direction to equities

The crypto market’s market capitalisation has fallen by 1% over the past 24 hours, returning to levels last seen in mid-July. The positive momentum the market showed in the first half of last week failed to take hold. Once again, we are seeing a negative correlation with the Nasdaq 100 index, this time in the form of falling cryptocurrencies while shares rise. Could this be becoming the new norm?

Bitcoin: Bulls hold the line

Bitcoin (BTC) edges slightly lower, trading at $64,300 at the time of writing on Friday but holding firmly above a key support zone. US-listed spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) support BTC as they continued to attract institutional flows through Thursday, pointing to the fourth consecutive week of net inflows.
