Biggest Movers: XRP, ATOM Rebound From Recent Declines

Xrp rebounded from recent drops in price on Friday, as the token surged by nearly 10% in today’s session. Cosmos was another notable gainer, as it snapped a four-day losing streak. Overall, cryptocurrency markets were mostly higher, with the global market cap up nearly 5% as of writing.

XRP

XRP was one of today’s big gainers, as prices of the token rose by nearly 10% earlier in today’s session.

Following a low of $0.4380 on Thursday, XRP/USD raced to an intraday peak of $0.5117 during the day.

Yesterday’s drop saw the token slip to a ten-day low, which was marginally below a floor of $0.4460.

As of writing, XRP is now trading at its highest point since Monday, when prices were above a key resistance point of $0.5280.

Looking at the chart, today’s surge comes as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) rose beyond its own ceiling at 57.00.

Currently, the index is tracking at 58.07, with bulls seemingly targeting a higher resistance of 60.00.

Cosmos (ATOM)

Cosmos (ATOM) was another notable gainer on Friday, as the token rebounded from a four-day losing streak.

The world’s twenty-second largest cryptocurrency climbed to a high of $12.24 earlier in the day.

Friday’s peak saw ATOM/USD almost 12% higher than the low from the previous day of $10.80.

As a result of Thursday’s drop, ATOM fell below its floor at the $11.90 point, however bulls reentered the market at this point, as this typically has happened at this mark.

The 10-day (red) moving average is now nearing its 25-day (blue) counterpart, which could trigger a potential upwards crossover.

As of writing, the RSI is moving closer to a resistance of 43.00, which could be the main hurdle for potential bulls looking to enter the market.

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.

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,...
