Analyst: XRP Dominance Could Go Parabolic in the Next Few Weeks. Here’s Why

Crypto markets often signal major shifts before price headlines catch up. While traders debate short-term candles, dominance charts quietly reveal where capital intends to flow next. XRP’s market cap dominance has compressed for months, reflecting sustained relative weakness. Now, compression appears to be reaching a breaking point.

Crypto analyst Bird recently shared a TradingView chart arguing that XRP dominance could soon accelerate sharply. He identifies an ending descending wedge pattern that is nearing completion. With dominance sitting around 3.8%, he believes the structure favors a bullish breakout that could send XRP’s market share significantly higher in the coming weeks.

Descending Wedge Signals Momentum Shift

A descending wedge forms when price or dominance prints lower highs and lower lows within converging trendlines. Unlike a standard downtrend channel, this formation often signals weakening bearish pressure. As volatility tightens toward the apex, markets typically prepare for expansion.

Bird’s analysis suggests that XRP dominance has almost reached the wedge’s terminal point. When such structures resolve to the upside, breakouts often occur with force. A dominance breakout would indicate that XRP is outperforming much of the broader crypto market, even if total market capitalization remains stable.

Extended Monthly Weakness Nears Exhaustion

Bird, per a recent report, pointed to XRP’s recent streak of monthly red candles. The asset has printed nearly five consecutive red months. Historically, XRP recorded six straight red monthly candles in 2014 before reversing direction. Based on that precedent, Bird argues that probability favors a green monthly close rather than another extended decline.

Markets rarely sustain prolonged one-sided pressure indefinitely. When selling momentum fades, even moderate buying demand can trigger sharp reversals. If March closes green, it could reinforce the case for a dominance breakout.

Why Dominance Breakouts Matter

Dominance measures capital rotation. When XRP dominance rises, investors allocate a larger share of total crypto capital to XRP compared to other digital assets. That shift often attracts momentum traders, increases liquidity, and amplifies volatility.

A parabolic dominance move does not require the entire market to rally. XRP can gain dominance if it rises faster than peers or declines more slowly during broader market weakness. Either scenario reflects relative strength.

The Critical Weeks Ahead

Broader market conditions will still influence the outcome. Bitcoin’s stability and macro liquidity trends will shape overall sentiment. However, technical structures on the dominance chart now suggest that compression has reached its late stage.

If XRP dominance breaks above the wedge’s upper boundary with conviction, capital rotation could accelerate quickly. After months of relative underperformance, XRP may be positioning for a leadership phase within the crypto market.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…

Love Island Games is a spinoff in the Love Island franchise that first premiered in 2023. The show follows a similar format to the original series, but with one major twist: all contestants are returning Islanders from previous seasons of Love Island from around the world, including the USA, UK, Australia and more. Another big difference is that games take on much more importance in Love Island Games than the mothership version, with the results “determining advantages, risks, and even who stays and who goes,” according to Peacock. Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix is taking over hosting duties for Love Island Games Season 2, replacing Love Island UK star Maya Jama who hosted the first season. Iain Stirling returns as the show’s narrator, while UK alum Maura Higgins will continue to host the Saturday show Love Island: Aftersun. ForbesWho’s In The ‘Love Island Games’ Season 2 Cast?

Justine had previously won Love Island USA Season 2 with Caleb Corprew, while Jack was a contestant on Love Island UK Season 4.
