Bitcoin has slowed to a crawl, adding just over 1% for the week. Meanwhile, Altcoin season has started in the market. Leading altcoins from the top ten are growing at 5-15% per week, with Solana (+26%) showing record growth in the top 30, climbing to seventh place in the capitalisation ranking.
Bitcoin has formed a short-term range with a slight upward bias and trades increasingly confident above $35K. The shift in attention to altcoins is not bearish news for the first cryptocurrency. Thawing investor sentiment towards cryptocurrencies brings capital back into the industry after a long “winter”. However, high interest rates are unlikely to allow cryptocurrencies to easily repeat the momentum of 2020-2021.
XRP’s growth is gaining momentum. Over the past three weeks, the price has risen by a cumulative 30%, but since the beginning of this week, it has increased by over 13%, reaching $0.6340 at the time of writing, back to early August levels. On the daily timeframe, the “golden cross” – a bullish pattern whose appearance often attracts additional buying – has almost formed. The picture remains bullish on the weekly chart, suggesting an essential resistance test at $0.85 at the earliest.
