XRP Price Today: XRP Reclaims $1.40 as Fed-Cut Bets and Short Covering Fuel Rebound

XRP Price Today: XRP Reclaims $1.40 as Fed-Cut Bets and Short Covering Fuel Rebound

XRP pushed past $1.40 on Friday, notching a 2.2% gain for the session as bitcoin and ether joined the move higher. The token saw intraday swings between $1.37 and $1.45, settling right at $1.40 after U.S. inflation data landed near forecasts. XRP’s break above the $1.39 resistance zone—a level that stalled upside moves earlier this year—puts the focus back on a critical technical region. IG market analyst Axel Rudolph pointed out that taking out Monday’s $1.4424 high could clear a path toward the $1.46-$1.49 range.

XRP Price Today: Ripple’s $50 Billion Buyback Still Fails to Lift the Token

XRP Price Today: Ripple’s $50 Billion Buyback Still Fails to Lift the Token

XRP hovered close to $1.38 on Thursday, slipping around 1.4%. Bloomberg flagged Ripple’s new share buyback, pegging the company’s value at $50 billion, and Ripple announced plans for an Australian financial services license. The token barely budged—fresh headlines, but no spark for XRP’s sideways drift. Crypto barely budged, with macro forces back in the driver’s seat. Oil lingered close to $100, the dollar held steady, and digital asset traders looked past Ripple’s expansion, focusing instead on the odds of U.S. rate cuts.

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds $70,000 as ETF Inflows Clash With Oil Shock

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds $70,000 as ETF Inflows Clash With Oil Shock

Bitcoin stayed near the $70,000 mark Thursday, shrugging off fresh oil strength—crude approaching $100 a barrel—and Wall Street’s latest pullback triggered by rising Middle East tensions. The largest cryptocurrency recently traded at $70,323, off 0.7% for the day, after dipping to $69,240 earlier. Bitcoin’s cleared $70,000 again — a sharp turnaround from the early February slide that knocked it down to a 16-month low near $60,000. The timing’s notable: demand from U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds, which actually own bitcoin, has started to accelerate. Still, the rally’s running into some stiff headwinds: oil prices are climbing, the dollar’s strengthening, and markets have all but abandoned dreams of rapid Fed rate cuts.

XRP Price Today: Ripple’s Australia License Push Keeps XRP Near $1.40

XRP Price Today: Ripple’s Australia License Push Keeps XRP Near $1.40

XRP hovered around $1.40 on Wednesday, slipping about 1.4% for the session. Ripple announced plans to snap up BC Payments Australia, aiming for an Australian Financial Services Licence. Trading action saw XRP shifting between $1.37 and $1.42. This shift carries weight as Australia steers digital-asset firms into the same licensing regime as traditional financial players, while Ripple keeps moving ahead with regulated cross-border payments outside the U.S. Back in November, Treasury outlined in its Digital Assets Framework Bill that digital-asset platforms would need to secure an AFSL. ASIC noted many providers are already required to hold a licence, offering no-action relief to the sector until June 30, 2026.

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds Above $71,000 as ETF Inflows Return, Crypto Stocks Mixed

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds Above $71,000 as ETF Inflows Return, Crypto Stocks Mixed

Bitcoin price held above $71,000 on Wednesday, giving back part of an earlier bounce but staying clear of the $70,000 line as traders swung between oil headlines and fresh U.S. inflation data. The token was last down a touch at $71,065 after trading between $69,014 and $71,271 in the session. That matters because bitcoin is again trying to turn $70,000 from a psychological marker into support after a bruising February selloff that dragged it to $60,017.60, its lowest since October 2024. Fresh institutional demand is starting to come back, but the market is still trading off oil, inflation and war risk more than crypto-specific news.

SoFi Technologies (SOFI) stock rises today as Mastercard stablecoin deal, Noto buy stay in focus

SoFi Technologies (SOFI) stock rises today as Mastercard stablecoin deal, Noto buy stay in focus

SoFi Technologies bounced 2.6% to $18.77 early Wednesday, recouping nearly all of Tuesday’s slip. The stock had closed at $18.29, a drop from Monday’s $18.79. SoFi’s rebound is significant as the company shifts focus from just loan growth toward fee and payment-driven businesses. On January 30, its fourth-quarter numbers showed adjusted revenue topping $1 billion for the first time. Fee-based revenue jumped 53%, while financial services revenue climbed 78%.

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Reclaims $70,000 as Oil Plunges, Iran War Fears Ease

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Reclaims $70,000 as Oil Plunges, Iran War Fears Ease

Bitcoin jumped above $70,000 Tuesday, shaking off some of the recent Iran war anxiety and touching $71,000 for the first time in four sessions. The top crypto traded 3.3% higher at $70,682. Ether also advanced, adding 2.7% to reach $2,065. This shift is notable: bitcoin’s price action lately has tracked with equities and oil, instead of just reacting to crypto headlines. On Tuesday, the coin jumped as Brent crude tumbled nearly 11% to about $88 per barrel, while U.S. stock indexes climbed following President Donald Trump's comment that the conflict might be "over soon."

Coinbase launches regulated crypto futures in 26 European countries as derivatives race heats up

Coinbase launches regulated crypto futures in 26 European countries as derivatives race heats up

Coinbase Global on Monday started offering regulated futures trading to eligible users in 26 European countries, stepping up its efforts to expand beyond spot crypto trading. The contracts are available via the exchange’s Cyprus-regulated investment arm, according to Coinbase. This shift is significant at a time when Coinbase has ramped up its push into areas beyond its main trading operations, following last month's unexpected quarterly loss that was driven by sluggish trading volumes. Over in Europe, investors are keeping an eye on how regulators will handle new crypto products under current investor-protection frameworks.

Bitcoin or Cardano? Fresh $1,000 Crypto Calls Swing to Bitcoin as Ethereum Stays in Play

Bitcoin or Cardano? Fresh $1,000 Crypto Calls Swing to Bitcoin as Ethereum Stays in Play

Retail-crypto chatter from the past two days has leaned in favor of Bitcoin for putting $1,000 to work, leaving Cardano lagging in recommendations. Ether, though, still got a nod for long-term investors in a separate March 5 opinion piece. On Tuesday, Bitcoin hovered close to $71,255, Ether was roughly $2,069, and Cardano traded near $0.27. This round of analyst calls comes just after a volatile macro backdrop sent crypto markets whipsawing—investors rotated hard into the largest, most liquid tokens. Spot bitcoin ETFs pulled in a net $167.1 million on March 9, bouncing back from hefty outflows of $227.9 million and $348.9 million on March 5 and March 6. Reuters tracked bitcoin circling $70,000, with oil prices falling and the dollar losing ground.

Strategy Inc (MSTR) Buys $1.28 Billion in Bitcoin, Tweaks Share-Sale Plan

Strategy Inc (MSTR) Buys $1.28 Billion in Bitcoin, Tweaks Share-Sale Plan

Strategy said in a filing late Monday that it bought 17,994 bitcoin for about $1.28 billion between March 2 and March 8, taking its holdings to 738,731 tokens. The Tysons Corner, Virginia-based company said the latest purchase was funded mainly with sales of class A stock and STRC preferred shares. It lands at a shaky moment for these companies. February's crypto slide rattled listed firms that raise money largely to buy and hold tokens, and Strategy had added only 3,015 bitcoin the week before. Reuters reported at the height of that selloff that peers such as Metaplanet and Nakamoto were also under pressure.

Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq announced Monday it's developing a new system for tokenized shares—those built on blockchain technology—and has enlisted Payward, the company behind crypto exchange Kraken, to help create the link between established stock markets and blockchain platforms. This is significant at this moment, with a top U.S. exchange stepping further into tokenized equities only days after banking regulators decided lenders won’t face additional capital requirements for blockchain-based securities. SEC staff, back in January, stated that tokenized shares may be handled as traditional ones provided holders retain essentially the same rights and privileges.

XRP price today slips near $1.34 as oil shock unsettles crypto traders

XRP price today slips near $1.34 as oil shock unsettles crypto traders

XRP edged lower Monday, changing hands near $1.34, off roughly 1.1% for the past day. Bitcoin and ether, on the other hand, moved up. The retreat is notable: crypto lately acts less like a safe haven, more like a high-velocity risk play whenever geopolitics rattles energy markets. Oil drives the connection. As crude prices spike, worries about inflation quickly resurface, and investors tend to slash positions in volatile assets right out of the gate.

MARA Holdings Stock Falls as Bitcoin Nears $70,000, Putting AI Pivot Funding in Focus

MARA Holdings Stock Falls as Bitcoin Nears $70,000, Putting AI Pivot Funding in Focus

Shares of MARA Holdings dropped 5.4% to $8.77 in premarket trading Friday, after bitcoin shed roughly 4% to hover near $70,001. That downturn is putting fresh strain on the U.S. bitcoin-mining sector. This shift is notable: on March 2, MARA’s annual report revealed the company updated its 2026 treasury policy, opening the door to selling any bitcoin sitting on its balance sheet—not just coins from ongoing mining. That tweak hands MARA a fresh way to raise cash as the firm looks to expand into AI and high-performance computing, areas that lean on dense server clusters for intensive tasks.

  • Japan Moves to Defend Yen, Spends $74 Billion as Dollar Stays Strong
    July 1, 2026, 2:31 AM EDT. Japan logged nearly $74 billion in currency intervention as the yen sank to a 40-year low against the dollar. The country's latest move comes as the Bank of Japan raised rates to 1%, but that's still nowhere near U.S. levels, and the dollar keeps the upper hand. Traders say Tokyo's solo efforts face tough odds with the Fed sticking to higher rates. Some say a joint response with the U.S. might help, but the yen's latest slide is more about the rallying dollar than doubt in Japan itself. The popular carry trade-borrowing yen to chase returns in the U.S.-adds to the pressure.
