Technical analyst John Bollinger says Ethereum and Solana are showing bullish “W” bottom patterns and hinted that a similar setup on Bitcoin’s chart could indicate a big move for the crypto market. The “W” bottom is a bullish reversal signal that often precedes sharp upward moves. Bollinger, who invented the Bollinger Bands volatility indicator, said the formation has yet to appear on Bitcoin’s chart and told his 254k followers in an X post that it’s “Gonna be time to pay attention soon.” Pseudonymous trader and analyst “Satoshi Flipper” observed in an X post that the last time Bollinger told his followers to pay attention was in July 2024, when Bitcoin went on to skyrocket from $49K to $110K. The last time John said to pay attention was July of 2024 and $BTC pumped from $49k to $110k https://t.co/0Vjgysayds pic.twitter.com/cETAMLiDzk — Satoshi Flipper (@SatoshiFlipper) October 18, 2025 ETH And SOL Recov...

Bitcoin plunged below $105K and gold soared to another all-time high (ATH) as “extreme fear” grips the crypto market. The sell-off followed emerging loan issues at several US regional banks, raising concerns of broader systemic risks. US regional lenders Zions Bancorp and Western Alliance Bancorp disclosed that they were victims of fraud on loans to funds that invest in distressed commercial mortgages. This followed a loan blowup at subprime auto lender Tricolor Holdings and the collapse of First Brands Group, which owed over $10 billion to some of the biggest Wall Street banks. US President Donald Trump add to the downbeat mood when he confirmed that there is a trade war with China.  The Crypto Fear & Greed Index plummeted six points into “extreme fear’ territory with a reading of 22. That’s down from 64 last week, when there was still “greed” in the market.  Crypto Fear & Greed Index (Source: alternative.me ) Cry...

CoinShares has taken a decisive step toward bringing regulated XRP exposure to American investors, officially filing to list the CoinShares XRP ETF on Nasdaq under the ticker XRPL.  The SEC filing, dated October 14, outlines a robust operational structure, with BitGo tapped as custodian, Valkyrie Funds LLC stepping in as seed capital investor, and CSC Delaware Trust Company serving as trustee. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services will act as administrator, U.S. Bank NA as cash custodian, and Paralel Distributors as the marketing agent.  Notably, the trust will not participate in staking, meaning investors will gain exposure strictly to XRP’s spot price rather than any additional yield. “Our mission is to make XRP accessible to institutional investors in the U.S., with a fully compliant, transparent, and secure framework,” a CoinShares spokesperson said, framing the move as a milestone for both the firm and the broader digital asset ecosystem. SEC faces pending spot XRP ET...

Reports now suggest Donald Trump’s Bitcoin (BTC) exposure may be as high as $870 million, potentially making him one of the largest indirect holders of the cryptocurrency. The mind-boggling stake reportedly stems from his 41% ownership in Trump Media and Technology Group (NASDAQ: DJT), or TMTG, the parent company of Truth Social, which raised $2.3 billion through a combination of debt and equity financing earlier this year, only to spend approximately $2 billion of it on “digital gold.” How much crypto does Trump have? Donald Trump’s on-chain cryptocurrency holdings, publicly tied to his name, really picked up the pace in the third quarter of 2025, when they rose 36.6% in value after a rough start to the year. More precisely, between July 1 and September 30, the value of Trump’s wallet went from $2.27 million to $3.10 million, a paper gain of roughly $823,000, according to Finbold’s Q3 2025 Cryptocurrency Market Report.  As of the time of writing, howe...

Bitcoin’s (BTC) recent rally and new all-time high beyond $126,000 are starting to show signs of overheating on Thursday, October 9, as the daily technical picture flashes historically fairly reliable indicators of a coming correction.  Namely, the Tom DeMark (TD) Sequential, which identifies potential reversals by counting consecutive price bars, rose to 9 on the cryptocurrency’s 24-hour chart.  This parameter, as on-chain crypto analyst Ali Martinez notes, has been quite accurate this year, as the same value presaged a 7% pullback in July and a 13% drop in August. What’s more, Martinez’s Analysis further suggests that the relative strength index (RSI) of 74.21 is likewise implying that “digital gold” is in the overbought zone. At the same time, the +100 reading on the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO), a market momentum measurement that oscillates between -100 and +100 and often peaks just before market reversals, adds further support to the argument. ...
