The cryptocurrency market continues its uptrend, with Internet Computer (ICP) once again being among the top performers.

Its price has risen by almost 40% over the last week, with some analysts arguing that the rally might be just starting.

History to Repeat Itself?

Earlier today (January 15), ICP climbed to $4.78, the highest point since the end of November 2025. In the following hours, it lost some steam and currently trades at around $4.30 (per CoinGecko’s data), a 9% increase on a daily scale.

Its solid performance has drawn analysts’ attention, with many of them claiming there is still fuel left for additional gains. X user The Crypto Professor found similarities between ICP’s recent uptick and the one witnessed two months ago. Back then, the price surpassed $9.50, leading the market observer to suggest a similar move could be ahead.

It is important to note that the asset’s pump to almost $10 in November last year was short-lived, immediately followed by a significant downtrend. However, X user Alex (BCP) believes that ICP’s latest jump “feels much more organic,” and it seems not entirely led by hype.

Other analysts who gave their two cents on the matter include FOUR|Crypto Spaces and Open4profit. The former claimed that ICP could experience huge volatility in the short term and eventually exceed $6. Open4profit argued the token has completed its accumulation phase and is now heading toward the supply zone around $5.

Keep an Eye on This Metric

Contrary to the optimistic forecasts, ICP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests that a short-term pullback is also a plausible option. As CryptoPotato reported on January 14, the metric surged well above 70, indicating that the price has increased too rapidly over a brief period and could be due for a correction.

Today (January 15), the index rose to a fresh two-month peak of approximately 85, reinforcing the probability of a downward move. Conversely, traders view anything below 30 as a buying opportunity.

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

The post Cryptos Signal Divergence Ahead of Fed Rate Decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto assets send conflicting signals ahead of the Federal Reserve’s September rate decision. On-chain data reveals a clear decrease in Bitcoin and Ethereum flowing into centralized exchanges, but a sharp increase in altcoin inflows. The findings come from a Tuesday report by CryptoQuant, an on-chain data platform. The firm’s data shows a stark divergence in coin volume, which has been observed in movements onto centralized exchanges over the past few weeks. Bitcoin and Ethereum Inflows Drop to Multi-Month Lows Sponsored Sponsored Bitcoin has seen a dramatic drop in exchange inflows, with the 7-day moving average plummeting to 25,000 BTC, its lowest level in over a year. The average deposit per transaction has fallen to 0.57 BTC as of September. This suggests that smaller retail investors, rather than large-scale whales, are responsible for the recent cash-outs. Ethereum is showing a similar trend, with its daily exchange inflows decreasing to a two-month low. CryptoQuant reported that the 7-day moving average for ETH deposits on exchanges is around 783,000 ETH, the lowest in two months. Other Altcoins See Renewed Selling Pressure In contrast, other altcoin deposit activity on exchanges has surged. The number of altcoin deposit transactions on centralized exchanges was quite steady in May and June of this year, maintaining a 7-day moving average of about 20,000 to 30,000. Recently, however, that figure has jumped to 55,000 transactions. Altcoins: Exchange Inflow Transaction Count. Source: CryptoQuant CryptoQuant projects that altcoins, given their increased inflow activity, could face relatively higher selling pressure compared to BTC and ETH. Meanwhile, the balance of stablecoins on exchanges—a key indicator of potential buying pressure—has increased significantly. The report notes that the exchange USDT balance, around $273 million in April, grew to $379 million by August 31, marking a new yearly high. CryptoQuant interprets this surge as a reflection of…
