Biggest Movers: LUNC up 20% on Saturday, XRP Moves Towards 1-Week High

Terra classic rose by as much as 20% in today’s session, which comes following a recent bearish streak. Today’s rally follows Thursday’s drop to a key support point, with bulls using this as an ideal area to reenter. Xrp was also higher, as it moved closer to a long-term resistance level.

Terra Classic (LUNC)

Terra classic (LUNC) was one of the most notable gainers on Saturday, as the token rose by nearly 20% to start the weekend.

Following a low of $0.0002671 on Friday, LUNC/USD rose to an intraday peak of $0.000328 earlier today.

The move came as the token hit a floor of $0.000248 on Thursday, with bulls using this as an ideal point to reenter the market.

As of writing, it appears that these bulls are now targeting a resistance level of $0.000380 as a potential exit zone.

If this were to happen, first the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) would need to climb past a ceiling of its own at the 55.00 mark.

Currently the index is tracking at 53.41, which is its highest point since the start of the week.

XRP

Like terra classic, XRP was also in the green to start the weekend, as the token moved closer to a key price ceiling.

On Friday, XRP/USD found itself trading below a support point of $0.3260, with prices falling to as low as $0.3212.

However, bulls refused to be overpowered, pushing price to a peak of $0.3571 earlier today.

Looking at the chart, XRP is now nearing a resistance level of $0.3610, which was its level at the beginning of the week.

In order to recapture this high, price strength will need to rise further, especially as the RSI nears a resistance point of 56.00.

Fidelity Discusses Bitcoin as Portfolio Insurance — Could Soon Stand in ‘Stark Contrast’ to Path Fiat Currencies Take

Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, says that bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance. The firm notes that the cryptocurrency “may soon stand in stark contrast to the path that the rest of the world and fiat currencies may take — namely the path of increased supply, additional currency creation, and central bank balance sheet expansion.” Fidelity Says Bitcoin Could Be Portfolio Insurance Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, recently published a research study titled “The Rising Dollar and Bitcoin.” The research outlines “how bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance” as the rising dollar impacts global currency markets. “The strengthening U.S. dollar is wreaking havoc among other countries and may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to soon reverse its tightening monetary actions, something that has precedent based on 1985’s Plaza Accord,” Fidelity explained. In addition, “more monetary debasement may be needed to ...

Economists Discuss Russia, China Potentially Developing Gold-Backed Currency That Could Undermine US Dollar

Economists have weighed in on reports that China and Russia may be developing a new gold-backed currency that could undermine the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s primary reserve currency. Russia and China May Be Developing Gold-Backed Currency Several experts have shared their views on Russia and China potentially creating a new gold-baked currency, Fox Business reported Saturday, emphasizing that China has been buying up huge quantities of gold while Russia was forced off the U.S. dollar due to sanctions imposed on the country following its invasion of Ukraine. The news outlet noted that some experts have cautioned that these moves, along with the closer relationship that has developed between Moscow and Beijing, point to the likelihood of China attempting to launch a gold-backed currency. However, neither Russia nor China has officially confirmed plans for such a currency. Craig Singleton, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat,...
