Crypto analytics firm EGRAG CRYPTO stated on X that XRP's upside target of over $9.50 will only become valid if the token breaks through the $2.00 to $2.10 resistance level.

A recovery in the RSI to the 52.85 to 55.45 range would revive medium- to long-term momentum, while reaching 80 could trigger an aggressive bullish scenario.

Andrei Grachev, founder of crypto market maker DWF Labs, argued that cryptocurrency exchanges will become increasingly strict about listing new coins as they generate more revenue from perpetual futures based on traditional financial assets like stocks and commodities. In a post on X, Grachev explained that since an exchange's main revenue comes from trading fees, user activity drops when coin prices fall, which is why it is already difficult to secure spot listings on top exchanges. He identified stock-based perpetual futures as an emerging trend, noting that yesterday, trading volume for SpaceX futures on a leading exchange accounted for about 10% of the total for all perpetual futures. Grachev predicted that founders who already hold tokens will have little choice but to cash out as much as possible before it's too late, and the barrier to entry for new projects will also rise. He diagnosed that the crypto market is shifting from a cycle of "faith to recovery to hyper-competition" and is currently nearing the end of its recovery phase.

If Bitcoin breaks below the $62,000 level, its decline could accelerate toward $60,000, according to a weekly options analysis from Glassnode. The firm noted that a significant concentration of short gamma positions, valued at $1.8 billion, is clustered at the $62,000 mark, which could amplify a downward move if breached. However, some long gamma positions at $60,000 may help suppress volatility and cushion the fall. Meanwhile, the broader options market continues to position for a downturn. Glassnode pointed out that while one-week implied volatility has dropped from 60% to 35%, suggesting lower expectations of sharp price swings, one-month realized volatility (around 42%) still exceeds implied volatility (around 39%), indicating the market may be underestimating risk. With call options remaining unpopular, investors appear more focused on downside potential. Over the past seven days, buying put options was the most frequent trade, accounting for 28% of activity.
