Key takeaways

• ONDO is down 10% in the last 24 hours and briefly dropped below the $0.40 support level.
• The coin could retest lower support levels as the price action remains bearish.

ONDO recovers after dipping below $0.40

ONDO is one of the worst performers among the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap, as it has lost 10% of its value in the last 24 hours. At press time, ONDO is trading at $0.41, slightly recovering from its dip below $0.40.

The bearish performance comes despite Ondo Finance announcing on Monday that it plans to integrate with Solana (SOL) in early 2026 to expand its tokenized stocks and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) platform. 

According to its X post, Ondo will bring ETFs to the Solana network. While this announcement signals a bullish outlook for ONDO, the coin has underperformed over the last 24 hours. 

It’s coming.

The integration is set to enhance scalability, liquidity, and tap into SOL’s fast-growing user base, broadening Ondo’s ecosystem and adoption. 

The bearish performance aligns with ONDO’s declining open interest on the Binance exchange, which currently stands at $22.32 million, close to its 2025 low. The decreasing open interest suggests that traders are closing their positions, with speculative interest currently declining. 

ONDO could retest $0.34 as bears remain in control

The ONDO/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and inefficient as Ondo has lost 10% of its value in the last 24 hours. 

The coin faced a rejection at the $0.52 resistance level last week and has lost 16% of its value since then. If the downward trend continues, ONDO could retest the $0.34 support level in the near term.

The October 10 low of $0.24 could serve as another strong support in the coming weeks or months. 

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour chart is at 32, pointing downward toward oversold conditions, indicating strong bearish momentum. Furthermore, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is showing a bearish crossover, adding confluence to the negative outlook.

However, if the bulls recover, ONDO could rally towards the $0.52 resistance level once again.

Key takeaways

• XRP is down 1% in the last 24 hours and is trading at $1.99.
• Failure to defend the $1.96 support could see XRP dip lower.

XRP drops below $2

The cryptocurrency market has underperformed over the past few days, with Bitcoin and other major coins currently in the red. Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency by market cap, has dropped below $90k and could retest lower levels if the bearish trend continues.

XRP, the native coin of the Ripple blockchain, is also in the red zone, after losing 1% of its value in the last 24 hours. The bearish performance means that XRP was unable to defend the $2.0 psychological level, as it is now trading at $1.99.

The bulls will now be forced to defend the $1.96 suppport level as failure to do so could see XRP record massive losses over the next few days. Currently, the market is still consolidating, with no clear direction in sight. 

XRP could extend its decline if bulls fail to defend the $1.96 support

The XRP/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and inefficient, with the inefficiency caused by the October 11 deleveraging event. Since then, XRP has failed to rally to the $2.7 level to gain efficiency. 

The cryptocurrency lost 3.22% of its value last week, making it the second consecutive week of losses. At press time, XRP hovers around $1.99.

If XRP fails to recover and closes the daily candle below the $1.96 support, it could extend the decline toward the next daily support at $1.77.

The RSI on the 4-hour chart is 41, below its neutral level of 50, indicating that bearish momentum is gaining traction. The MACD lines are also converging, adding more confluence to the consolidating market condition. 

On the flip side, if XRP stays above the $1.96 daily support, it could extend the rally toward the next daily resistance at $2.35.

Key takeaways

• BTC is trading at $89k after losing less than 1% of its value in the last 24 hours.
• The leading cryptocurrency could top the $90k resistance level in the near term.

BTC trades below $90k

The cryptocurrency market has opened the new weekly candle bearish, with Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies currently in the red. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP) are currently trading around key levels after correcting slightly over the past few days. 

The three leading cryptocurrencies by market cap could record further losses in the near term as bearish momentum builds across key indicators.

At the moment, traders and investors are closely monitoring critical support zones for signs of stabilization or a deeper corrective move.

Traders are keeping an eye on upcoming macroeconomic events in the global financial markets. In the U.S, the events include the unemployment rate, ADP employment data, and weekly jobless claims, alongside November inflation data, and December flash PMI readings.

Furthermore, the speeches from Federal Reserve Governors Stephen Miran and Christopher J. Waller could give investors clues on the path of interest rates.

The Bank of Japan is also expected to raise interest rates to 0.75% at its upcoming policy meeting on Thursday. 

Bitcoin could face further correction

The BTC/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient as Bitcoin has underperformed in recent days. The cryptocurrency faced rejection from the descending trendline last week, failing to overcome the $94k resistance level. As of Monday, BTC hovers around $89,000.

If the bearish trend continues, Bitcoin could sink lower towards the next key support level at $85,569. However, this support level remains strong at the moment. 

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour chart is at 42, below its neutral level of 50, indicating bearish momentum is gaining traction. Furthermore, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) lines are converging, and a flip to a bearish crossover could add additional confluence for the bears. 

If the bulls regain control and Bitcoin breaks above the $94k resistance level, it could extend its rally toward the $100,000 psychological level.

Key takeaways

• ETH is up 1.4% in the last 24 hours and is now trading above $3,200.
• The leading altcoin by market cap could retest the $3k psychological level as the bullish momentum stalls.

Market momentum stalls

Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are currently trading around key resistance levels after rallying over the past 24 hours. The resistance levels could see the leading cryptocurrencies retest lower psychological areas before either dumping harder or embarking on a successful breakout.

At press time, Ether is trading above $3,200 per coin after adding 1.4% to its value in the last 24 hours. It failed to surpass the $3,500 resistance level on Friday despite the Federal Reserve reducing its benchmark interest rate for the third time this year.

However, the Fed delivered a hawkish rate cut, causing the market sentiment to shift bearish and Ether to retest the $3,100 level on Thursday. The market has now bounced back, and Ether could reclaim the $3,500 resistance if the rally continues. 

Ether could retest $3k before rallying higher

The ETH/USD 4-hour chart is bullish and efficient, as Ether has added nearly 4% to its value since the start of the week. Ether’s price broke above the descending trendline (drawn by joining multiple highs since October 7) earlier this week and rose by 6.2% on Wednesday. 

However, it declined below $3,100 following the FOMC meeting, with a key resistance level set around $3,500. If Ether closes its daily candle above the 50-day EMA at $3,310, it could rally towards the next major resistance at $3,592.

The RSI of 54 is above the neutral 50, indicating a bullish momentum on the 4-hour timeframe. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bullish crossover earlier this week, supporting a bullish bias. 

However, if the daily candle fails to close above $3,310, Ether could face another correction towards the daily support level at $3,017.

Key takeaways

• PI is down 1% in the last 24 hours and is now trading below $0.21.
• The coin could drop lower as the bearish sentiment grows stronger.

Pi core team transfers 2 million tokens

PI is down 1% in the last 24 hours despite the broader crypto market recovering from its recent slump. The negative performance comes after an outflow of 2 million PI tokens from the Pi core team’s liquidity reserve wallet. 

Usually, such transfers are a strategic movement of supply for rewards of operations. This is usually followed by a bearish movement in the price action of the cryptocurrencies.

A similar transfer of 50 million PI tokens to a different wallet two months ago saw multiple deposits to the OKX cryptocurrency exchange. At the moment, this wallet holds less than 48 million tokens after transferring over 3 million PI tokens to OKX. 

This movement could suggest that the core team is consolidating its holdings, increasing the bearish sentiment surrounding PI. 

PI could retest the $0.19 support level

The PI/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient as the coin has been in the red over the past seven days. The technical indicators are also bearish, suggesting that sellers are currently in control of the market. 

The bearish performance comes after PI failed to defend the $0.2200 support level, with the bears likely to push it lower towards the $0.1919 support area. 

Failure to defend this critical level could expose PI to the October 10 low at $0.1533, which could serve as its all-time low support.

The RSI of 37 is below the neutral 50, indicating that the bears are currently in control of the market. The MACD lines are also within the negative territory, suggesting a bearish momentum. 

However, if the bulls recover the momentum, PI could rally and test the 50-day Exponential Moving Average at $0.2364. The bullish trend will resume once PI crosses the $2.500 psychological level.
