Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Crypto, PI & Bitcoin – European Wrap 4 August

Crypto Today: Bitcoin eyes $118,000, Ethereum $3,800, XRP $3.30 as speculative demand builds

Cryptocurrency prices are broadly recovering on Monday in the wake of last week’s volatility and sell-off. Bitcoin (BTC), which plummeted to lows of $111,886 on Saturday, has regained momentum, approaching the short-term $115,000 hurdle. 

Leading altcoins, including Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP), are also edging higher on Monday, backed by a gradual return of risk-on sentiment. The largest smart contracts token, ETH, holds above $3,500 support, as bulls push toward the $3,800 target.
