XRP Completes Golden Cross Against Bitcoin, $3 Price Next?

XRP has just posted a key signal on its Bitcoin chart, triggering speculation on what comes next.

XRP has just completed a golden cross against Bitcoin on the three-hour chart as the 50 MA has risen above the 200 MA, the first of such on this particular time frame in 2026.

Golden cross signals have also appeared on the one-hour and two-hour time frames as XRP gained ground against Bitcoin at 2026’s start.

XRP started rising against Bitcoin on Jan. 1. The following days saw significant increases: Jan. 2 and 4 saw XRP gain 5.34% and 2.34% against Bitcoin, respectively.

The surge has produced a crucial breakout for XRP against Bitcoin, now trading above the daily MA 50 at 0.00002257 for the first time since early December. The appearance of the golden crosses on XRP/BTC short term charts remains meaningful, accompanied by a breakout above key resistance, which happened in the recent move.

If the rise is sustained, XRP would target the 0.00002391 level (the daily MA 200) on the Bitcoin chart, which has massive potential for its price action.

XRP to $3?

At the time of writing, XRP was up 2.59% in the last 24 hours to $2.14 as bulls found footing above $2 and up nearly 15% weekly.

XRP is poised to mark its fifth day of increases since Jan. 1 on its USD pairing. The rally has produced a crucial breakout, surpassing the daily MA 50 on the USD chart for the first time since October.

XRP touched an intraday high of $2.16, with the next major resistance above it now at $2.56, which coincides with the daily MA 200. 

A decisive break above this level remains crucial as it would open the pathway toward the $3 level.

Institutional demand for XRP has remained, with U.S.-listed spot XRP ETFs adding $13.59 million in weekly inflows. XRP’s market cap rose to about $130 billion on the session, now ranking as the fourth largest cryptocurrency.

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…

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

The post Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Michael Saylor and a group of crypto executives met in Washington, D.C. yesterday to push for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (the BITCOIN Act), which would see the U.S. acquire up to 1M $BTC over five years. With Bitcoin being positioned yet again as a cornerstone of national monetary policy, many investors are turning their eyes to projects that lean into this narrative – altcoins, meme coins, and presales that could ride on the same wave. Read on for three of the best crypto projects that seem especially well‐suited to benefit from this macro shift:  Bitcoin Hyper, Best Wallet Token, and Remittix. These projects stand out for having a strong use case and high adoption potential, especially given the push for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve.   Why the Bitcoin Reserve Bill Matters for Crypto Markets The strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill could mark a turning point for the U.S. approach to digital assets. The proposal would see America build a long-term Bitcoin reserve by acquiring up to one million $BTC over five years. To make this happen, lawmakers are exploring creative funding methods such as revaluing old gold certificates. The plan also leans on confiscated Bitcoin already held by the government, worth an estimated $15–20B. This isn’t just a headline for policy wonks. It signals that Bitcoin is moving from the margins into the core of financial strategy. Industry figures like Michael Saylor, Senator Cynthia Lummis, and Marathon Digital’s Fred Thiel are all backing the bill. They see Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a hedge against systemic risks. For the wider crypto market, this opens the door for projects tied to Bitcoin and the infrastructure that supports it. 1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Turning Bitcoin Into More Than Just Digital Gold The U.S. may soon treat Bitcoin as…
