Daniel Liu (VirtualBacon), one big crypto analyst, don see say XRP fit climb, but e say make pipu careful until XRP fall around 22% compared to Bitcoin. Even with all the good things wey don happen for XRP recently—like Ripple SEC case wey settle, CME XRP futures wey launch, Canadian spot ETF wey include am, and even one new stablecoin RLUSD wey dem plan—Liu still talk say e need to fall well-well small before e go make sense to buy am with small risk and big gain. E say e want XRP/BTC ratio to drop to 0.000017–0.000019 area, or around $1.85 for XRP if Bitcoin still dey above $100,000. Or, if Bitcoin go up well-well and XRP no move, e fit still make am interested to buy. Liu talk say XRP demand zone don hold, but e remind pipu say na so strong altcoins dey do: dem go fall hard against Bitcoin before dem go bounce back. While other analysts dey talk say XRP go reach big money for long term, like pass Ethereum market cap or reach $13-$22, Liu dey advise traders say make dem wait for clear sign from the chart. Until hin plan of falling happen, e say make dem wait for clear signal before dem buy plenty XRP.

This move show say di regulator dey careful with altcoin ETFs, especially for assets wey dey volatile or speculative like meme coins, unlike di Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs wey dem don approve before. Di market uncertainty around DOGE and XRP ETFs don make traders and investors focus on new, utility-focused blockchain projects, like Nexchain — one Layer-1 protocol wey get artificial intelligence, cross-chain compatibility, and small fees. Nexchain presale don already raise over $3.5 million, wey dey attract investors because of verified credentials and possible price increase.

Plenti rich investors and central banks for Asia dey waka comot from US dollar assets because dem dey fear say dollar no too reliable for long term, plus geopolitical wahala and trade friction wey dey increase between US and China. UBS and Morgan Stanley talk say high-net-worth people for Asia dey reduce their exposure to US and dem dey diversify their portfolios by putting more money for gold and big cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. One Bloomberg report talk say government dem for China, Japan, India, and Thailand don comot as much as $7.5 trillion from US assets in these recent years. China don reduce how much US Treasury e get to below $800 billion - which be the lowest level since 2009 - and e don dey increase e gold reserves for 18 months straight.

For crypto traders, the fast de-dollarization and rising gold reserves for Asia dey strengthen the story of currency diversification, make decentralized assets like Bitcoin dey more attractive because experts talk say e risky to no get any crypto exposure now.

Big big venture capital companies like a16z, Dragonfly Capital, IOSG Ventures, and Multicoin Capital don see say the next big thing for crypto market na "crypto-adjacent" companies go rise. Instead of focusing on just crypto projects, these new big companies go come from old old areas like fintech, AI, and consumer tech wey go use blockchain, stablecoins, and DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) as ways to make payments, privacy, and infrastructure better. Popular examples include stablecoin payment ways, AI wey dey use decentralized infrastructure, and consumer tech companies wey dey use strong strong privacy like zkTLS. This change show say dem don put more mind on good business foundation, like money wey dey come in every year, plenty users wey don grow, and customers wey dey happy, instead of just guessing with tokens. VCs talk say investors now need to understand both crypto and normal industries well well to find chances for big big markets like global payments, AI data markets, and privacy for people. As this bear market dey go on, most altcoins no dey move and new token FDV dey shrink, with money rushing to strong strong projects wey users dey drive.

World Liberty Financial co-founder deny say im partner with former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao. Big security wahala show face as Cetus Protocol chop $223 million hack for Sui network, and dem 'pause' $162 million wey dem steal, still dey try recover am.

FIFA talk say dem get plan to launch their own blockchain for Avalanche. Government control don tight as SEC sue Unicoin, di GENIUS stablecoin bill dey go front for Congress, India Supreme Court ask for clear clear rules for digital assets, and SafeMoon CEO dem catch am for fraud. Bitcoin reach new record high pass $111,000, even though traders no too ginger.

Di current crypto bull market don show clear winners and losers for different strategies and asset classes. Bitcoin don jump pass $100,000, supported by strong institutional inflows and spot ETF approvals, push BTC to new all-time highs over $110,000 and make more than 99% of Bitcoin wallets profitable. Institutions and listed companies wey accumulate BTC don report better gains. The wider rally con see increase risk appetite and trading activity, while macroeconomic factors like ease US-China trade tension and expectations for US rate cuts dey encourage capital inflows. Meanwhile, Bitcoin dominance peak for 64-65% before funds begin rotate to altcoins, stablecoin supply reach record high and Altcoin Season Index bounce back. Meme coin traders–especially those focus for Solana, Base, and Ethereum ecosystems (like WIF, PEPE, TRUMP)–dem don make big gains but success need sharp timing and risk management. Airdrop hunters still benefit well from targeted participation for Layer1, Layer2, and DeFi protocol airdrops (like Arbitrum and Wormhole), despite the competition wen plenty. The altcoin rally get clear difference from previous cycles: higher institutional participation, better managed volatility, and social media driven flows to meme coins and innovation sectors like AI and Layer2 tokens (like FET, AGIX, ARB, OP). But many retail altcoin investors, especially for ETH ecosystem, plus traditional VC approaches no perform well. Regulatory improvements don encourage more institutional adoption. In summary, market still dey reward agility, expertise, and timely exits—opportunities dey, but you need sustained edge and adaptability as things dey complex more.

Bitcoin don show one strong sign say e go fall for the weekly SuperTrend indicator—naim be the first time since 2022—dey make top analysts dey warn say e fit reverse from im recent up-trend. The last time this kind sign show, e make Bitcoin fall by 60% after FTX crash. Even though BTC/USD still strong and close to all-time highs, analysts like Tony Spilotro and Bluntz don point out say the momentum dey weak and get bearish divergence for the daily chart, wey be say na US dollar weakness cause am pass organic buying. Bluntz, wey be well-known crypto analyst, dey warn traders make dem no hold long positions too much and e emphasize say the risk of price pullback don dey high. The bearish divergence na big deal, because the last time e happen na one year ago. Technical levels don dey for focus, traders dey watch for weekly close above the upper Bollinger Band ($108,507) to confirm more gains. If e no hold above key support, Bitcoin fit go back below $50,000, wey fit also affect major altcoins negatively. But if e close strong, e go confirm say the bull trend still dey. Other assets too dey under watch: Bluntz dey use Elliott Wave analysis for gold, e talk say e fit surge to $3,600 after e finish one ABC corrective phase, from im current $3,221. For Floki (FLOKI), e expect small dip to $0.00008 before e fit rally to $0.00018, with the analyst considering entry for this lower level. Traders don dey advised to monitor technical indicators well-well, practice careful risk management, and do their own research, as market conditions dey volatile and predictions still dey speculative. The coming weeks don dey seen as critical for determining whether Bitcoin go extend im bullish cycle or enter a long correction, with ripple effects for altcoins and related digital assets.
