Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Ripple, Ethereum Classic & Near Protocol — Asian Wrap January 12

XRP price eyes $0.700 despite SEC’s move to subpoena Ripple’s financial statements

Ripple (XRP) price is pushing north after establishing support over the past few days. With a budding recovery rally, the payments ecosystem is facing opposition from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), shifting the community’s attention from their aspirations for an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF).

Ethereum Classic price tops out with a 15% correction likely underway for ETC

Ethereum Classic (ETC) price is among the biggest gainers, benefitting the most from the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) approval. The capital rotation from BTC to altcoins has favored some projects more than others, with ETC presenting among the biggest beneficiaries.  

Near Protocol price consolidation hints NEAR could retest $6.50 soon

Near Protocol (NEAR) price has shown incredible resilience to drawdowns despite the market volatility and short-term Bitcoin price crashes. As a result of this sideways movement, NEAR has set up a bullish continuation pattern that could result in a triple-digit breakout rally.
