Bitcoin (BTC) price hovers around $104,000 on Friday after bouncing off from its 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of around 98,800 earlier this week. Ethereum (ETH) and Ripple (XRP) approach key resistance levels; if rejected, they could lead to a correction ahead.
Ripple’s XRP is up 2% in the Asian session on Friday following the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) Arca 19b-4 filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the conversion of Grayscale’s XRP Trust into a spot ETF. The remittance-based token could see a 27% rally in the coming days as issuers will potentially send a flurry of XRP ETF filings to the SEC next week.
Ethereum (ETH) is up 3% on Thursday as it looks to spark a rally to $4,300 if it overcomes the resistance of a falling wedge pattern. The recent price growth follows community members showing support for researcher Danny Ryan to become the Ethereum Foundation’s executive director.
