XRP has gained about 8 percent over the past week and 3 percent on the day, outperforming bitcoin and ether in a controlled advance rather than a sharp spike.

Traders are watching the $1.44 resistance and $1.40 support levels as XRP tests a major structural zone and trades above its 200-day EMA, with volume still too inconsistent to confirm a decisive breakout.

Analysts see XRP's relative strength and multi-year technical pattern as potential early signs of a larger rotation and longer-term breakout, though the token remains stuck in a broader consolidation range for now.

The ongoing Middle East conflict is expected to widen economic inequality across Latin America and the Caribbean, according to the International Monetary Fund. While oil-exporting nations stand to gain short-term advantages, Caribbean tourism-dependent economies and energy-importing Central American countries face a worsening financial outlook.The IMF's warning follows its latest World Economic Outlook, which projects regional growth of 2.3% in 2026 — nearly unchanged from 2.4% in 2025 — before rising to 2.7% in 2027. Brazil, the region's largest economy, is expected to expand by 1.9% this year, while Mexico is forecast at 1.6% growth.According to the IMF, Latin America and the Caribbean entered 2026 on relatively stable footing, with inflation approaching target levels and growth tracking near trend in most countries. However, the escalating Middle East war has introduced a new external shock, triggering market volatility, tighter lending conditions, and dramatic swings in global commodity prices.Oil markets have been especially turbulent. Both Brent and WTI crude prices dropped more than 10% in a single session after Iran's foreign minister confirmed commercial vessel passage through the Strait of Hormuz remained open amid a ceasefire. Despite the dip, both benchmarks have surged approximately 45% so far in 2026.Among the clearest short-term beneficiaries are the region's oil producers. Countries including Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela have gained from elevated energy prices, which have boosted export revenues, strengthened public finances, and eased pressure on their external balances. Even so, the IMF cautioned that households across all these economies are still feeling the pinch through rising fuel and food costs.The divergence highlights how a single geopolitical crisis can produce vastly

Cardano Founder Challenges Bitcoin Recovery Claims In BIP-361 Plan
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has criticized the latest Bitcoin (BTC) proposal to protect vulnerable assets from quantum-computing threats. The three-step approach touted as a possible lifeline might face another setback due to Satoshi-era coins.
Hoskinson analyzed developments in the Bitcoin ecosystem, comparing solutions to those of top altcoins. The BIP-361, which seeks to save more than a third of Bitcoin’s supply, approximately worth over $536 billion, has come under scrutiny in recent weeks. 

The plan is expected to make all assets quantum-resistant to prevent losses likely to occur in the next five years. However, experts say freezing coins that don’t migrate to quantum-resistant addresses will not solve all problems.

In the coming months, the three-phase proposal will replace older signature schemes. Initially, inflows to quantum-vulnerable addresses will be blocked before legacy coins are frozen. The final phase is more contentious because it allows recovery of Bitcoins that missed their deadlines.

While it’s acceptable to many, it doesn’t account for coins held before 2013. These assets, about 1.7 million BTC, were created before the key generation of BIP-39.

“34% of all Bitcoin is vulnerable… and here’s your hard fork here. They don’t want to admit it, but this will require a hard fork. Users with frozen quantum vulnerable funds can construct a quantum safe product to recover funds… that’s a lie! And you know it. 1.7 million coins can’t do that. It’s not possible.”

Hoskinson and other critics noted that the plan could recover some of the assets, making it not an entirely bad proposal. He noted that inaction could result in massive losses if quantum computers breach Bitcoin’s cryptography.
