XRP and other major cryptocurrencies see mixed price action amid whale buying and regulatory uncertainty

XRP fell to around $1.09‑$1.10, yet large wallets accumulated roughly 600 million XRP (≈ $660 million) as the token wrestles with support at $1.08 and the uncertain future of the U.S. CLARITY Act. Ripple launched the RLUSD stablecoin platform Mint and partnered with compliance firm Notabene, while broader market pressures from U.S. inflation worries and higher oil prices weighed on the price.

Solana slid 3.8 % to $73.53 amid record network activity – over one billion transactions per week and $17 billion DEX volume. The Morgan Stanley‑approved MSOL spot‑ETF received NYSE Arca listing, attracting about $904 million in inflows, though it did not halt the price decline. Analysts watch $63‑$65 as potential support and $77‑$80 as resistance.

Ethereum traded near $1,860, under pressure from higher oil prices, tariffs and U.S. yields, while spot‑ETF inflows added $103.9 million in the same week. Technical support sits around $1,848‑$1,829, with $1,900 as the key breakout level; a sustained close above could lead to $2,000, while a break below may see the price slide toward $1,650.

Bitcoin long‑term holders now control about 83 % of the circulating supply (≈ 16.64 million BTC, valued at $1.07 trillion). The share of coins held for at least 155 days has risen 14 % since November 2025, a pattern historically linked to accumulation phases ahead of market bottoms.
