Ripple holds above critical threshold as risk-on sentiment expands


Ripple ($XRP) is trading at $1.44 at the time of writing on Friday, its upside seemingly capped by its weekly peak around $1.47. Still, the overall tone remains bullish as the remittance token holds above key support levels at $1.40 and $1.30.

$XRP buoyant amid renewed retail and institutional demand

The $XRP derivatives market is gaining traction as Open Interest (OI), reflecting the notional value of outstanding futures and options contracts, increased to to $2.71 billion on Friday from $2.58 billion the previous day.

On Monday, the OI averaged $2.38 billion, underscoring growing risk appetite and retail capital influx. $XRP requires a highly concentrated retail market to sustain short to medium-term gains.

$XRP spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) also uphold a positive outlook, evidenced by the $11.87 million in inflows on Thursday. SoSoValue data shows that US-listed $XRP spot ETFs have maintained a bullish streak for five consecutive days, bringing cumulative inflows to $1.26 billion and net assets under management to $1.08 billion.

Прогноз цены HBAR: Hedera и Stellar превзошли CoinDesk 20, а BTC приблизился к отметке в 76 000 долларов

Прогноз цены HBAR улучшился в пятницу, поскольку Hedera выросла на 1,4%, а Stellar (XLM) — на 1,5%, возглавив рейтинг CoinDesk 20 и достигнув отметки 2125,52, что на 0,3% выше, чем на закрытии четверга. При этом только 9 из 20 активов с более высоким уровнем роста показали рост, который превзошёл все основные попытки ралли в 2026 году.

Прогноз цены HBAR улучшился в пятницу, поскольку оба токена значительно превзошли рост CoinDesk 20 на 0,3%, при этом Hedera выросла на 1,4%, а Stellar — на 1,5% по сравнению с индексом, в котором 11 из 20 активов остались на прежнем уровне или снизились. Стремительное движение Биткоина к отметке в 76 000 долларов привело к избирательной ротации альткоинов, и как $HBAR, так и $XLM обладают профилем, который обычно лидирует на ранних этапах таких движений — инфраструктура платежного уровня с институциональным управлением и регуляторной надежностью.

Near Protocol упал на 2,3%, став худшим показателем сессии, а Polkadot снизился на 1,6%. Универсальные сети первого уровня с более медленными темпами разработки показали худшие результаты, в то время как токены со специфическими краткосрочными катализаторами и поддержкой предприятий привлекли незначительное количество покупок в ходе сессии.

Почему $HBAR показывает лучшие результаты

Резкий рост объема торгов Hedera до 103 миллионов долларов — на 57,6% больше, чем за день — сигнализирует о целенаправленном позиционировании, а не о пассивном дрейфе вместе с $BTC. С марта в экосистеме сформировалось несколько катализаторов. Команда McLaren Racing присоединилась к Управляющему совету Hedera в марте 2026 года в качестве полноправного члена с правом голоса, взяв на себя обязательства по программам цифровых коллекционных предметов в течение сезонов Формулы-1 и IndyCar и предос

That lens now cuts both ways. When oil climbs, freight and energy input costs rise, and inflation expectations stiffen, the case for faster, cheaper movement of money gains urgency.

The same macro shock also boosts the dollar, tightens financial conditions, and usually pushes risk assets into a tougher zone. XRP now sits at the intersection of those two forces.

The tension is direct because it touches household budgets, portfolio drawdowns, and the cost of moving capital across borders.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC Bulls Target $125,000 as Funding Rates Hit Most Negative Since 2023


Bitcoin price prediction turned aggressively bullish early Friday as CoinDesk reported that perpetual funding rates dropped to their most negative level since 2023 on a seven-day moving average, with ZeroStack CEO Daniel Reis-Faria targeting $125,000 within 30 to 60 days if the market’s heavily short positioning is forced to unwind.

Bitcoin ($BTC) price prediction turned aggressively bullish early Friday as CoinDesk reported that perpetual funding rates dropped to their most negative level since 2023 on a seven-day moving average, with ZeroStack CEO Daniel Reis-Faria targeting $125,000 within 30 to 60 days if the market’s heavily short positioning is forced to unwind.

$BTC was changing hands near $74,700 in early Asia trading Friday, up 3.5% on the week but down 0.4% on the day as a 10-day global equity rally paused ahead of next week’s Iran ceasefire deadline. The asset has climbed from the mid-$60,000s through March and April despite persistently negative funding, meaning shorts have been paying longs for weeks while price continued to grind higher.

The Funding Rate Signal

Funding rates are periodic payments between long and short holders in perpetual futures contracts, designed to keep contract prices aligned with spot. When rates go negative, shorts pay longs — a condition that only develops when speculative positioning is tilted heavily against price. The 7-day moving average rate has dropped to approximately -0.005%, per Glassnode data, a reading last seen at the FTX crash bottom in late 2022.

“Funding rates this negative tell you the market is heavily short,” Reis-Faria said. “If Bitcoin continues to move higher despite that, a lot of those positions could get liquidated, and the move can accelerate quickly.” He targets $125,000 within 30 to 60 d

Bitcoin liquidation map flags $73.6K ‘trapdoor’ and $81.3K squeeze zone


Coinglass shows $2.221B of $BTC longs below $73,610 and $913M of shorts above $81,264, turning the next $10K band into a $3.1B liquidation minefield for traders.

Bitcoin ($BTC) is once again wedged between two large liquidation clusters, with leverage stacked just below and above current levels on major derivatives venues. According to the latest liquidation‑levels data from derivatives analytics platform Coinglass, “if $BTC falls below $73,610, the cumulative long liquidation intensity on major CEXs will reach $2.221 billion,” while “if $BTC breaks above $81,264, the cumulative short liquidation intensity on major CEXs will reach $913 million.”

Coinglass maps new $BTC liquidation walls

Coinglass explains that its Bitcoin liquidation heatmap and liquidation‑levels indicator are designed to “estimate price ranges where large‑scale liquidation events may occur” by aggregating high‑leverage long and short clusters across futures and perpetual swaps. The firm stresses that the bars on its heatmap represent relative “intensity” rather than an exact dollar amount guaranteed to be wiped out, but notes that once price collides with a dense band, forced selling or buying can “cause sharp price movements and significantly impact traders’ positions.”

In a recent analysis highlighted by crypto.news, Coinglass’ Bitcoin liquidation map showed a similar setup lower down the chart, with a $1.143 billion long wall below $65,000 and a $754 million short pocket above $68,000, creating nearly $1.9 billion of potential forced flow in a narrow band. At that time, the platform described these areas as “sensitivity zones” that can turn a modest 5–7% move into a disproportionate liquidation cascade as exchanges automatically close margined positions.

Crypto Kidnapping Surge: French Probe After €3M Ransom Case
French authorities are investigating a rise in crypto-linked kidnappings after a 74-year-old man from Voiron in Isère survived a violent 16-hour abduction in January 2026. Police said attackers stormed his home and forced him to contact his son while demanding cryptocurrency, believing the family held significant digital assets.

The incident forms part of a growing pattern of organized groups targeting individuals linked to crypto through data leaks and online tracking.

As per a local report, the victim, identified as Jean, told investigators that his kidnappers assaulted him repeatedly while trying to extract access codes from his son. Authorities confirmed the group demanded €3 million before police intervention ended the case.

Rising Violence in Crypto-Linked Kidnappings

Jean told investigators that the attackers used repeated violence over several hours, including threats, forced movement, and physical assault. He said they filmed him to pressure his son into paying a ransom.

However, no payment was made after the son confirmed he did not control large crypto funds. Police later arrested three suspects aged between 19 and 23 during the operation.

Investigators said the group acted under instructions from a remote coordinator believed to be based abroad. They added that the attackers were recruited through social media and operated as low-level executors.

Moreover, authorities linked the same operational pattern to at least twenty kidnappings between 2023 and 2025, with activity increasing sharply in 2026.
Organized Networks and Digital Targeting

Police analysis shows that structured criminal groups increasingly rely on online intelligence and leaked databases. Besides hacking activity, attackers study public profiles and financial indicators to identify potential targets. However, officials said many victims have no actual cryptocurrency holdings.
