XRP XRP $1.96 24h volatility: 2.9% Market cap: $119.18 B Vol. 24h: $4.26 B faced significant selling pressure as the broader crypto market saw turbulence due to US President Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats on the EU.

The fifth-largest cryptocurrency even fell to the “extreme fear” zone, Santiment wrote, as retail traders pushed increased bearish commentary.

XRP plunged from its local high of $2.4 on Jan. 5 to $1.88 on Jan. 21. The selling pressure, which brought a 19% price fall to the asset, triggered negative sentiment for XRP, similar to Jan. 2. XRP gained bullish momentum right after the retail was betting on its downfall.

Santiment’s data shows that whenever XRP saw strong bearish sentiment from the crowd, it saw notable gains.

XRP is up by 2% in the past 24 hours and is trading at $1.95 at the time of writing. Its daily trading volume also increased by 22% to $4.3 billion, showing increased interest from traders.

XRP’s Winning with Institutions

Despite the negative crowd, XRP is seeing notable movements from institutions.

The US-based spot XRP exchange-traded funds recorded a net inflow of $7.16 million on Jan. 21, bringing the total net inflows to $1.39 billion, according to data from SoSoValue. So far, these products have seen only two days of outflows on Jan. 7 and 20.

These inflows came while Bitcoin BTC $90 029 24h volatility: 0.8% Market cap: $1.80 T Vol. 24h: $55.87 B spot ETFs saw a $708.71 million outflow, and products connected to Ethereum ETH $3 012 24h volatility: 1.5% Market cap: $363.57 B Vol. 24h: $34.38 B registered a $286.95 million net outflow on the same day.

Moreover, Ripple, the company behind XRP, formed a strategic alliance with DXC Technology, an IT services and consulting company that helps large enterprises run complex technology systems.

This will allow Ripple to integrate blockchain technology into existing banking systems. Ripple’s technology will be embedded directly into DXC’s Hogan core banking platform, a system that currently supports over $5 trillion in deposits and 300 million accounts worldwide.

The strong institutional confidence in Ripple’s technology normalizes the use of crypto-native tech in traditional banking.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
