Dash Market Update: DASH/USD soars 5% in a dull cryptocurrency market

  • Dash leads the cryptocurrency recovery, testing the short-term resistance at $78.
  • DASH/USD grinds towards a possible triangle breakout, targeting $90.

Dash is among the biggest single digit gainers in the cryptocurrency market. Volatility is returning to the digital space following a drab action on Tuesday. DASH/USD is trading 5.46% higher on the day. The European session is likely to experience further upward movement ahead due to bullish trend and high trading volume.

The price is currently above the moving averages where the 200-day SMA is offering immediate support while the short term 50 SMA is in line to offer support at $70.00. Both the MACD and the RSI double-down in the increasing bullish influence. For instance, the RSI has bounced off support and point upwards. In other words, there is still room for growth before hitting oversold levels. Moreover, the MACD is in the positive region, emphasizing the growing bullish grip.

If the bullish action continues, Dash could break above the triangle resistance; a move that could stretch the bullish leg towards $90. Dash traded highs above $140 January before retreating in February and plunging to lows under $40 in March.

Near Protocol slides below $5.00 after Near Intents $4M exploit
Near Protocol (NEAR) uptrend has been cut short, as the price slides below $5.00 on Thursday. The correction comes after an exploit on the network’s Near Intents services, which affected deposits and withdrawals across 11 crypto networks. NEAR is currently trading at $4.88, below the daily high of $5.54, while falling momentum indicators suggest that sellers are gaining the upper hand.
XRP loses momentum as ETF inflows stall
Ripple (XRP) shows signs of weakness as it slides below $1.50 on Thursday. The correction from September highs of $1.66 aligns with recent struggles faced by major assets Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). BTC currently trades above $83,000 while its upside is capped below $85,000. As for ETH, the smart contract token hovers between a narrow $2,600-$2,700 range.
Bitcoin beats September's curse: Is there enough demand for October?
Bitcoin (BTC) closed September with a 6.33% gain, breaking away from a month that has averaged losses since 2013. The buying that carried the rally, however, has thinned as October begins. Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) ended a 9-day inflow streak on Wednesday, while long-term holders stepped up their selling. Meanwhile, a large wall of sell orders sits just above the current price.
Ethereum Price Forecast: ETH ranges as Citi raises target to $3,028
Ethereum (ETH) is trading above $2,600 on Thursday, while short-term supply caps upside at $2,700 ahead of a higher limit at $2,800. The smart contracts token mirrors broader crypto price action, with Bitcoin (BTC) struggling to regain momentum above $83,000. A breakout above the upper limit at $2,800 would encourage more traders to take on more risk, alleviating buyer exhaustion.
Bitcoin: BTC consolidates gains as ETF inflows hit highest level since October 2025
Bitcoin (BTC) price holds above $84,000 at the time of writing on Friday as it consolidates gains of over 4% so far this week. Institutional demand supports the bullish outlook, with spot Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) recording a net inflow of $2.25 billion through Thursday, pointing to the highest weekly inflow since October 2025.
