Beyond the Top 10: Shiba Inu and Cronos Attempt a Rebound
Further down the rankings, clear pockets of strength are emerging. Among memecoins, Shiba Inu is up 3.5% and MemeCore gains 1.9%. In exchange tokens, Cronos advances 2.5%, while in DeFi World Liberty Financial posts a 0.9% gain. Layer 2 also has a green print: POL (ex-MATIC) rises 0.6%.
| Crypto | Category | 24h |
|---|---|---|
| Uniswap | DeFi | -7.40% |
| Bitcoin Cash | Layer 1 (UTXO) | -5.50% |
| Pudgy Penguins | Gaming & NFT | -3.50% |
| LEO Token | Exchange Tokens | -3.00% |
| Cardano | Layer 1 (non-EVM) | -2.70% |
| Shiba Inu | Memecoins | +3.50% |
| Cronos | Exchange Tokens | +2.50% |
| MemeCore | Memecoins | +1.90% |
| World Liberty Financial | DeFi | +0.90% |
| POL (ex-MATIC) | Layer 2 | +0.60% |
This shows that despite the red across major pairs, some capital is rotating into niche segments. DeFi is hit hardest: Uniswap -7.4% and Hyperliquid -4.4%.
Bitcoin: RSI at 32.8, Market in Fear, China Pumps Liquidity
Bitcoin trades at $63,050, down 1.4% over 24 hours and 3.0% over 7 days. 24h volume stands at $21.31 billion. The RSI(14) has fallen to 32.8, near oversold territory, but MACD and the EMA 9/21 cross remain bearish — meaning any bounce may prove fragile.
The Fear & Greed Index sits at 29, signaling fear. On-chain data from Bitquery shows the BTC network processed roughly 1.16 million transactions in 24h, pointing to steady activity, though transaction count alone does not determine direction.
On the macro front, BeInCrypto reports that China injected $52 billion while Bitcoin fell 1.7%. Three more injection days are planned, each capped at $88 billion starting Monday. That could matter for risk-asset liquidity, but so far it has not translated into gains.
💡 Worth Knowing
At $63,050, Bitcoin remains well below its ATH of $126,080. Ethereum, meanwhile, trades at $1,882 against an ATH of $4,946.05.
Ethereum: Net 9,044 ETH Leaves Exchanges, but Momentum Stays Weak
Ethereum posts a daily decline of 0.7% to $1,882.04, with 24h volume of $5.40 billion. On-chain data shows a net outflow of roughly 9,044 ETH from exchanges over 4 hours — typically read as an accumulation signal and reduced near-term sell pressure.
In the past hour, 36 large transfers of ≥250 ETH were also recorded, with the largest around 3,366 ETH, 2,536 ETH, and 2,492 ETH. Some of this flow may be internal or OTC rather than outright buying. Bitquery data also shows transfers of 6,974 ETH and 1,500 ETH.
Classic indicators remain weak, however: RSI(14) is at 39.7, MACD and EMA 9/21 are in a bearish setup, and the fear index sits at 29. If exchange outflows persist, sell pressure may ease further; if weak momentum prevails, price near $1,879 could stay under pressure.
Until MACD and EMA 9/21 start showing bullish dominance, sell pressure may persist; a low RSI is fuel for a bounce, but not a trend-reversal signal.
XRP: Back Under Pressure at $1 Despite Record Adoption
XRP trades at $1.004, down 0.4% on the day and 1.9% on the week. XRP’s market cycle score is 32.8/50, RSI(14) sits at a neutral 43.8, but MACD and the EMA 9/21 cross remain bearish.
Industry outlets report that XRP again dipped below $1 within the day, despite record adoption metrics on the XRP Ledger. CryptoPulsar data, meanwhile, shows the price just above that level. With the fear index at 29, cautious sellers hold the edge, and the funding rate of ~0.009% remains neutral.
