For many traders that doesn't know how SpaceX $SPCX works is much bigger than many traders give it credit for. From my perspective, anyone buying now should be thinking long term rather than chasing short-term price action. The company's future revenue potential is massive, so don't be surprised if the price trades below $100 at some point. That's completely normal in the stock market. If you believe in the long-term story, short-term volatility is just part of the journey.

Understanding XRP’s Potential Cycle Turn in 2026Crypto markets move in cycles periods of rapid growth followed by deep corrections. In early 2026, sentiment feels bearish: Bitcoin sits near $69K after pulling back from 2025 highs, while major altcoins like Solana (SOL) and are down roughly 40–45% year-to-date. Historically, however, these pessimistic phases often set the stage for the next major rally. XRP is particularly interesting right now. Trading around $1.40–$1.60, it remains below its 2018 ATH of $3.65 but far above the $0.20 lows seen in past downturns. The big question: Could 2026 mark a cycle turn from bear to bull? What Are Crypto Market Cycles? Crypto cycles typically align with Bitcoin’s four-year halving rhythm: Accumulation, Bull Market, Distribution, Bear Market. While we appear to be in a cooling phase, catalysts like ETF approvals, regulatory clarity, and institutional adoption can accelerate a reversal. XRP’s 2026 Outlook Analysts remain mixed but increasingly optimistic. Conservative views: $2–$4 without major catalysts. Bullish scenarios: $5–$8 if ETFs, regulation, and adoption improve.

Historically, alts rally after BTC strengthens. A BTC push toward new highs could lift XRP into the $4–$8 range. Unlike Bitcoin’s scarcity-driven growth, XRP’s upside relies more on adoption and utility. Expect higher volatility but also larger percentage moves. In Conclusion: Market cycles reward patience.

Understanding XRP’s Potential Cycle Turn in 2026

Crypto markets move in cycles periods of rapid growth followed by deep corrections. In early 2026, sentiment feels bearish: Bitcoin sits near $69K after pulling back from 2025 highs, while major altcoins like Solana (SOL) and are down roughly 40–45% year-to-date. Historically, however, these pessimistic phases often set the stage for the next major rally.
XRP is particularly interesting right now. Trading around $1.40–$1.60, it remains below its 2018 ATH of $3.65 but far above the $0.20 lows seen in past downturns. The big question: Could 2026 mark a cycle turn from bear to bull?
What Are Crypto Market Cycles?
Crypto cycles typically align with Bitcoin’s four-year halving rhythm:
Accumulation, Bull Market, Distribution, Bear Market.
While we appear to be in a cooling phase, catalysts like ETF approvals, regulatory clarity, and institutional adoption can accelerate a reversal.
XRP’s 2026 Outlook
Analysts remain mixed but increasingly optimistic.
Conservative views: $2–$4 without major catalysts.
Bullish scenarios: $5–$8 if ETFs, regulation, and adoption improve.
Extreme upside: Higher targets depend heavily on mass institutional use.
Key drivers to watch:
Institutional inflows through potential XRP ETFs
Regulatory progress for Ripple
Expansion into real-world assets (RWAs)
A broader Bitcoin recovery
Technically, XRP appears to be defending previous breakout zones, suggesting $1.40 could act as strong support but regulatory setbacks or prolonged bearish conditions could keep it range-bound.
XRP vs. Solana: Speed vs. Stability
Solana tends to move faster due to retail hype, DeFi activity, and meme-coin ecosystems. Its cycles are explosive but volatile.
SOL: High-beta asset that often rebounds quickly.
XRP: Slower mover with stronger institutional narratives.
If alt season returns, may surge first, but XRP could deliver steadier, more sustainable gains.
XRP vs. Bitcoin: Following the Market Leader
Bitcoin still dictates macro direction. Historically, alts rally after BTC strengthens.
A BTC push toward new highs could lift XRP into the $4–$8 range.
Unlike Bitcoin’s scarcity-driven growth, XRP’s upside relies more on adoption and utility.
Expect higher volatility but also larger percentage moves.
In Conclusion:
Market cycles reward patience. While sentiment is uncertain, consolidation often comes before expansion.

$BTC delivered the second sweep we discussed this morning and bounced off the $82K region. This is now the second test of that level, so patience is key. I want to see BTC build liquidity to the upside and potentially squeeze late shorts entering around these prices. I'm already long based on my 1M execution model. My first TP was at $82.7K, with more partials planned at $83.8K and the $85K gap. I've also adjusted my stop below the $82K low on the 1M timeframe. However, bears could still push price lower. The grey box remains a valid area of interest, and a sweep below $80.1K could offer another potential long setup if the price action confirms it. For now, I'm staying patient and reactive. Another sweep of the lows is still possible, so risk management remains essential.

$Sui is pushing further into the AI agent economy. The network is partnering with Alibaba Cloud to enable stablecoin-based, per-call payments for AI agent services. Interesting step toward making AI agents more autonomous when it comes to paying for services on-chain. #StrategyMarketCapSurpassesRumble

🇸🇬 TOKEN2049: WLFI co-founder Zak Folkman says $WLFI is working on bringing its payments technology to unnamed Web2 companies with billions of users. The goal is to enable payments to drivers, contractors and creators, which could put stablecoin payments in front of a much larger mainstream audience.

This is what I’d be watching on $ZEC if BTC gets a stronger rally. After nearly +400% from the lows, I’m more interested in where ZEC forms a lower high than expecting another immediate push toward the highs. We’ve now lost a daily swing low for the first time since the $400s, while ZEC/BTC has also broken support across multiple timeframes. Those are important structure breaks that shouldn’t be ignored. If $BTC rallies, I could see ZEC getting a relief move back into the $1,420–$1,500 distribution zone, where I’d be watching for a lower high. From there, another leg down toward the $1,100–$1,200 liquidity zone would make sense. And if BTC loses its range instead of breaking out, ZEC may head straight toward that zone without getting much of a bounce first.

$BTC is trying to defend the 85K PDL. As mentioned yesterday, I’m still in a small scalp hedge-short with 84.4K as the target. BTC filled the last untested 4H FVG yesterday and bounced. If we want to see a push toward the 87.2K highs, I’d like to see 84.9K hold. I’m open to a scalp-long if the sell-side starts failing and buyers take control around 84.9K. I want to see bearish POIs get invalidated first. There’s also a scalp-short setup toward 84.4K, either from here or after a sweep of the 86.1K Asia high. HTF bias remains bullish, but the 1H FVG around 84.4K sits just below untapped weekend liquidity, so I’m watching that level closely. If we lose it and dump, I’ll leave a runner toward 82.5K. For now, I’m only scalping inside the range. Bigger trades need external liquidity to be taken first.

This feels more like wishful thinking on $BTC . The new-cycle-low thesis was built around the weekly downtrend: lower highs followed by lower lows. But that structure has now been challenged. BTC broke above the swing that was keeping the bearish structure intact. Historically, we haven’t seen the weekly lower-high structure get invalidated and then simply continue into fresh cycle lows. That doesn’t guarantee a reversal, but the bearish thesis needs to account for the structural shift.

$BTC failed to hold the $84.5K low and triggered a small long flush. We talked about this yesterday, and now I’m expecting things to stay relatively flat this Saturday, with potentially more movement on Sunday. I’m staying out of the market this weekend, but I’m already mapping out scenarios for next week. The move down left two major gaps, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of that liquidity get filled before another bigger move lower. If BTC pushes back into the $85.7K–$86.7K area before testing $82K, I’ll be watching for potential short setups. $82K remains an important POI for an intraday or swing-long setup, especially with more liquidity building below the $82.5K lows. Time to reset this weekend and come back ready for next week.

Look at how the average trader thinks about $ETH . Most people still don’t want to touch it because it failed to break out last cycle. That’s exactly why I was comfortable accumulating throughout the bear market. Just look at what happened after that failed breakout. ETH formed another higher low inside the same ascending triangle it’s been building for years. As long as that higher low held, the setup was still intact. For me, it was simply a matter of continuing to stack. #EthereumFoundationLaunchesZkAPIOnMainnet

If $ASTER starts holding above $0.81, ask yourself this: would you take the exact same setup if it had a different ticker? If the answer is yes, then maybe the problem isn’t the chart. It’s your opinion of the asset. You don’t have to be a fan of a project to recognise when the setup makes sense. One thing I’ve learned after years of trading is that letting my personal feelings about an asset stop me from taking a setup I’d normally trade usually hasn’t worked out well.
