Ripple’s XRP Rallies, while Bitcoin Falls – Markets Wrap

Ripple’s XRP Rallies, while Bitcoin Falls – Markets Wrap

The crypto market fluctuated last week. Several major currencies tumbled down, while the others rose moderately. Ripple’s XRP and Stellar’s Lumen profited the most. The first one rallied by 7.40%, and the second one skyrocketed with 3.16%.

However, some of the crypto’s gains were more modest on Thursday. Cardano’s ADA increased by 0.49%, with EOS and Ethereum also climbing up, adding 0.42% and 0.67%, respectively. Bitcoin Cash ABC rose by 0.16%, while Tron’s TRX gained 0.09%.

Meanwhile, Binance Coin and Tezos dropped down on Thursday, losing 6.74% and 5.76%, respectively. Monero’s XMR declined by 3.02%. Bitcoin Cash SV lost 1.89%, and Litecoin fell by 1.01%.

What About Bitcoin? 

Bitcoin had a turbulent few days. Since its recent rally, it fell by 1.12% on Thursday, reversing a 0.89% gain from Wednesday. The crypto stopped at $10,222.0 at the end of the day.

Bitcoin soared to a mid-morning high $10,480.0 after a bullish start of the day, before dropping down again. However, it broke through the first major resistance level at $10,452.67 before lowering at $10,058.0 in the late morning.

Afterward, the crypto fell through the first and second major support levels at $10,230.67 and $10,123.33, respectively. But after finding support in the early afternoon, Bitcoin rebounded to $10,491.0

On Friday morning, Bitcoin fell by 0.31% to $10,190.0. The crypto fell from an early morning high $10,236.4 to a low $10,173.0 after the bearish start of the day. Even though Bitcoin fluctuated so much, the near-term bearish trend, formed in late June at $13,764.0, remained firmly intact.

Experts are looking forward to the new week to see if bitcoin manages to break through another resistance level. To bring the first major resistance level at $10,456.0, bitcoin would need to return the $10,260 level. It could even clear the $10,400 levels with the broader market’s support. But if the crypto can’t manage to move back to $10,400 levels, it may fall deeper.
