David Schwartz, the former Ripple CTO, has defended the company's business model as it relates

to pushing for more XRP adoption. As is his custom, the clarification of the economic motive behind XRP's integration with traditional banks came in a conversation on X. Advertisement Is Ripple pushing XRP for monetary gains?The conversation started with an X user, Mason Versluis, who gave an analysis about economic considerations in XRP integration with banks. He asked why any global bank would choose to use XRP and, in turn, "potentially boost its price through the roof, when Ripple holds 34B tokens?"In his belief, if the price of XRP jumps as high as proponents are pointing out, it might make Ripple Labs the most valuable financial institution in the world. Mason believes banks do not want that, and he questioned whether the utility and benefit to these banks are "big enough to just ignore certain things?"In response, David Schwartz said pushing for banks' integration will surely make Ripple money. However, he noted that the company is not doing so because it will make the other firm money."Yeah, this makes business sense for us to do and would make us money, but we don't want to do it because it also makes this other company money

Ethereum’s locked supply is building a floor. Now the market watches for the treasury bid that historically ignites parabolic cycles.



Scarcity has always been one of the strongest market drivers for risk-on moves.

That said, it’s rarely an instant catalyst. The process takes time, tests patience, and forces the market to prove conviction. In other words, scarcity doesn’t immediately impact price action. Instead, it quietly builds a support base until real demand steps in. That’s usually when markets transition into parabolic runs.

A clear example is Bitcoin’s [BTC] 2020 cycle. The Bitcoin halving cut new BTC issuance from 12.5 to 6.25 BTC per block, tightening supply. Around the same time, Strategy [MSTR] started accumulating BTC, while global central banks flooded markets with liquidity after the COVID-19 shock. Now, market participants are speculating that Ethereum [ETH] may be setting up along a similar path.

may be approaching a bottom, with the potential for a rebound building, particularly when viewed through exchange activity and transaction behavior.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin [BTC] traded near $66,000 after declining over the past week, pressured by tightening macroeconomic conditions and persistent geopolitical uncertainty weighing on risk assets.

Are speculative traders exiting the market?

The Bitcoin Fund Flow Ratio, which tracks network activity relative to exchange flows, indicates that the market is at a decisive point.

The metric stood at 0.065 at press time, a level that historically acts as a pivot for price direction.

This range has often served as a support zone, where Bitcoin stabilizes before initiating a bullish reversal. Similar patterns emerged between late 2017 and early 2018, and again in 2019, 2020, and 2023.

The case for a potential rebound rests on declining speculative activity and improving supply dynamics on exchanges. With fewer speculative trades and more stable supply conditions, the market structure begins to favor a bullish setup.

However, the Fund Flow Ratio is not fixed at this level. A move lower would shift the outlook, opening the door to continued distribution

"Mild winter"Gold's surprising weakness  Advertisement According to recent analysis from Jurrien Timmer, director of global macro at Fidelity Investments, exchange-traded product (ETPs) flows clearly show that investors who abandoned Bitcoin in late 2025 are returning to the cryptocurrency. Market data indicated a massive change in sentiment when Bitcoin peaked back in October. Investors pulled out of digital assets and jumped on the "gold bandwagon." However, that trend is now flipping."Now that gold has lost its mojo while Bitcoin is finding its footing, the flows have reversed," Timmer noted, pointing to the recent divergence in the two assets' momentum. "To me, this is a good way to think about why gold has started acting like Bitcoin and Bitcoin has started acting like gold."

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Over the years, the rivalry between Ethereum, Solana, and XRP has grown tougher, with investors staking their claims with their favorites. After the last bull run, though, Solana seemed to come out ahead, hitting new all-time highs before Ethereum, and completely outpacing XRP that never hit new peaks. But now, after the bull run is done and prices have begun to fall again, we take a look at which of these three have held up their value better.Ethereum Holds Up Similarly To BitcoinEthereum only briefly made a new peak of $4,953 last year, and this was very short-lived. As the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, it is the digital asset that has most mirrored the Bitcoin performance during the decline, returning with similar numbers. Related Reading: Growing Pressure On BTC: On-Chain Data Reveals Bitcoin’s Institutional ExodusAccording to data from CoinMarketCap, the Ethereum price is down around 59% since 2025, not far off from Bitcoin’s 47% in the same time period. In a similar fashion, the daily trading volume is down more than 65% from its all-time high, mirroring the same pattern. Interestingly, the Ethereum price is up 6% on a year-to-date basis.XRP’s Failure To Hit All-Time Highs Shows WeaknessBetween 2024 and 2025, the XRP price was able to rally by around 600%, hitting about $3.5. However, even this major rally could not propel the altcoin price well enough to hit a new all-time high and break the 2017 $3.8 record. The price eventually peaked in 2025, and it has been downhill ever since.With the XRP price trading below $1.5, this means that the altcoin is now more than 65% below its all-time high levels. On a year-to-date basis, the XRP price is down 37%, despite major developments such as the XRP Vs.

AI-powered Genius Group has sold off its remaining Bitcoin holdings in the first quarter to pay down debt. Summary Genius Group sold its remaining Bitcoin in Q1 to repay debt, stepping back from its earlier commitment to hold the majority of reserves in BTC. The company reported a turnaround in performance, with revenue reaching $3.3 million and net profit at $2.7 million after a loss a year earlier. According to an April 1 press release, the company said it will “recommence building its Bitcoin Treasury when it believes market conditions are more favorable,” outlining that the exit is tied to timing rather than a full departure from its digital asset strategy. The firm first committed to a “Bitcoin first” approach back in November 2024, stating that 90% or more of its reserves would be held in BTC. The latest move marks a break from that position as liquidity needs took priority.

Its Bitcoin balance had been declining since April 2025, when a US court temporarily blocked treasury expansion. The company resumed purchases in June, but the latest sale has now reduced its holdings to zero, according to data from Bitcoin Treasuries. Revenue for the quarter rose 171% year-on-year to $3.3 million, while gross profit increased 228% to $2 million. A $500,000 operating loss recorded in Q1 2025 turned into a $2.7 million net profit in Q1 2026. Similar decisions have surfaced across the sector as companies adjust balance sheets. MARA Holdings sold 15,133 BTC in March for roughly $1.1 billion, reducing its treasury to 38,689 BTC and pushing it down to the third-largest corporate holder. The bulk of the proceeds went toward repurchasing about $1 billion in convertible senior notes, with the remainder allocated to general corporate use.
