Even after today’s 4% retracement off October’s near-record highs for crypto prices, most major assets have rallied year-to-date.

In fact, every top 10 crypto asset has posted positive or neutral performance in 2024 except one: XRP. With total crypto market capitalization $680 billion higher than January 1, holders of XRP are disappointed, to say the least.

The pain is even more acute after Ripple partially prevailed in the highest-profile lawsuit in crypto history and earned a ruling from Judge Analisa Torres that many secondary transactions of XRP purchases by retail investors were not securities transactions. Year-to-date, XRP is down 17% and has shed ...

Bitcoin (BTC) has broken out of a seven-month downtrend, trading above the $70,000 psychological resistance since early October 29. However, the legendary chart trader Peter Brandt explained this price action is not a “real breakout” yet. In a post made this morning, Peter Brandt defended a bullish bias on Bitcoin but warned about the so-called breakout. The experienced technical analyst said diagonal patterns are hard to trade. On that note, breaking out of the downtrend resistance line is not enough for a real breakout, requiring other indicators. “When is a breakout really a breakout? Bitcoin bulls should be excited – but there are rules to determine breakouts.” – Peter Brandt Picks for you Bitcoin is just 2% away from breaking its all-time high 30 mins ago ...
