Almost the entire cryptocurrency market began the new year with a bang, charting substantial gains in the span of just a few days, even as the political tension in the Americas unfolded.

Ripple’s native token was among the prime examples, as it skyrocketed by about 30% in less than a week from under $1.90 to a multi-month peak of $2.41. This came amid growing ETF inflows and declining token holdings on exchanges.

However, this rally was halted, and the asset has slumped by 13% since then to $2.10 as of press time. According to Ali Martinez, there could be more pain on the horizon for the XRP bulls.

He noted that the cross-border token could be printing a gravestone doji candle, warning that it’s “not a great look.” This setup is typically regarded as a bearish reversal candlestick pattern that looks like an upside-down “T.” It signals that the bulls’ push was rejected and could lead to a prolonged downtrend, especially if it follows an instant uptick, as it happened with XRP last week.

The other warning sign for XRP’s price is related to the declining whale activity. CryptoPotato reported earlier this week, right after the token’s impressive price surge, that whale-sized XRP transfers had skyrocketed by double digits to their highest levels since October.

Santiment warned that this could indicate the price movement at the time was most likely erratic and unsustainable, given the sudden rise in such transactions. More recent data shared by Martinez again shows a massive decline in this metric, which could spell further trouble for the underlying token.

The Manchester City Donnarumma Doubters Have Missed Something Huge

The Manchester City Donnarumma Doubters Have Missed Something Huge

The post The Manchester City Donnarumma Doubters Have Missed Something Huge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. MANCHESTER, ENGLAND – SEPTEMBER 14: Gianluigi Donnarumma of Manchester City celebrates the second City goal during the Premier League match between Manchester City and Manchester United at Etihad Stadium on September 14, 2025 in Manchester, England. (Photo by Visionhaus/Getty Images) Visionhaus/Getty Images For a goalkeeper who’d played an influential role in the club’s first-ever Champions League triumph, it was strange to see Gianluigi Donnarumma so easily discarded. Soccer is a brutal game, but the sudden, drastic demotion of the Italian from Paris Saint-Germain’s lineup for the UEFA Super Cup clash against Tottenham Hotspur before he was sold to Manchester City was shockingly brutal. Coach Luis Enrique isn’t a man who minces his words, so he was blunt when asked about the decision on social media. “I am supported by my club and we are trying to find the best solution,” he told a news conference. “It is a difficult decision. I only have praise for Donnarumma. He is one of the very best goalkeepers out there and an even better man. “But we were looking for a different profile. It’s very difficult to take these types of decisions.” The last line has really stuck, especially since it became clear that Manchester City was Donnarumma’s next destination. Pep Guardiola, under whom the Italian will be playing this season, is known for brutally axing goalkeepers he didn’t feel fit his profile. The most notorious was Joe Hart, who was jettisoned many years ago for very similar reasons to Enrique. So how can it be that the Catalan coach is turning once again to a so-called old-school keeper? Well, the truth, as so often the case, is not quite that simple. As Italian soccer expert James Horncastle pointed out in The Athletic, Enrique’s focus on needing a “different profile” is overblown. Lucas Chevalier,…
