Dash Market Update: DASH/USD spikes over 2% outperforming Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple on a daily basis

  • Dash price leads recovery among the top 20 cryptocurrencies gaining over 2% on the day.
  • DASH/USD breakout lags beneath the resistance at $70 but technical indicators suggest that gains above $80 are possible.

Dash is the biggest single-digit gainer on Friday during the Asian session. The digital asset is up 2.23% on the day and leads the intraday recovery in comparison to Bitcoin’s 0.08 percentage change, Ethereum’s 0.53 and Ripple’s 0.54. Other cryptocurrencies performing relatively well include Bitcoin Cash (up 1.16%), Bitcoin Gold (up 1.66%) and Litecoin (up 1.11%).

Dash price technical picture

DASH/USD recovery recently hit a wall at the 38.2% Fibonacci level taken between the last high at $144.58 to a low at $33.36. The rejection, however, found balance at 23.6% Fibo precisely at $60. For over a week, now Dash has been range-bound between the two Fibo levels.

The ongoing bullish action has stepped above the moving averages; where the 50 SMA and the 100 SMA in 4-hour range are in a position to function as support lines. DASH/USD is trading at $69.05; a break above $70 is required to pave the way for gains above $80 and allow the bulls to focus on higher levels at $100. The bullish action is supported by the RSI’s rise into the overbought region. Moreover, the Elliot Wave Oscillator shows that buyers are still in the driver seat.

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.
