Biggest Movers: SOL, XRP Snap Recent Losing Streak on Wednesday

Biggest Movers: SOL, XRP Snap Recent Losing Streak on Wednesday

Solana ended a two-day losing streak on Wednesday, as the token surged by as much as 7% in today’s session. The move came following a two-week low on Tuesday, as markets slipped after recent highs. XRP also edged higher, and currently hovers near a key price floor.

Solana (SOL)

Solana (SOL) recovered from a two-week low on Wednesday, as bulls took advantage of yesterday’s dip in price.

After slipping to a bottom of $22.86 on Tuesday, SOL/USD raced to an intraday high of $24.56 earlier in the day.

The token has mostly traded lower in recent weeks, after surging to an eight-month high above $30.00 on June 14.

Today’s rebound came as the relative strength index (RSI) bounced on a floor at the 52.00 mark.

As of writing, the index is tracking at 57.51, and looks set to be heading for a ceiling at 60.00.

Should it reach this point, there is a strong possibility SOL will be above $25.00.

XRP

XRP, formerly ripple, was trading close to a key support point during today’s session, as price continued to consolidate.

XRP/USD peaked at $0.7141 earlier in today’s session, after slipping to an intraday low of $0.6961 the day prior.

Since surging to $0.9479 earlier this month, XRP has mostly traded between a floor at $0.7000 and ceiling of $0.8200.

Following a brief move below the aforementioned support point, XRP bulls have reentered to push the price higher.

This coincided with price strength finding a stable zone at 57.00, helping increase bullish prospects.

The next target to maintain today’s slight rebound will be to capture the $0.7500 resistance level.

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,...
