XRP price today: Ripple token steadies near $1.88 as Fed minutes loom

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 13:30 ET — Regular session XRP rose about 1% on Tuesday to $1.88, hovering near the day’s high after slipping to $1.84 earlier in the session. Bitcoin gained about 0.8% and ether added roughly 1.3%. The steadier tone in the XRP price today comes as markets brace for the Federal Reserve’s December meeting minutes, due at 2 p.m. ET, which could reset expectations for U.S. rates into 2026. “The market doesn’t have a lot to work with right here,” Joseph Trevisani, a senior analyst at FX Street in New York, said. Reuters The minutes from

Bitcoin price today steadies near $88,000 as Fed minutes loom; crypto stocks edge higher

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 1:29 PM ET — Regular session Bitcoin was up 0.8% at $88,320 on Tuesday afternoon in New York, steadying after recent choppy trading into the final days of the year. The move matters now because thin holiday trading has amplified swings across risk assets, leaving crypto sensitive to fresh signals on U.S. interest rates. Traders are watching whether the Federal Reserve’s next message cements expectations for more easing in 2026. Reuters+1 Markets get a key test at 2 p.m. ET when the Fed releases minutes from its December meeting — the detailed record of policymakers’
Coinbase stock dips after Needham cuts target to $290 on weak crypto volumes

Coinbase stock dips after Needham cuts target to $290 on weak crypto volumes

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:54 ET — Regular session Coinbase Global (COIN.O) shares were down 0.1% at $233.47 on Tuesday after Needham cut its price target on the crypto exchange operator, citing continued weakness in crypto trading volumes. “Even if crypto prices are near a bottom, retail volumes typically remain muted until momentum returns,” Needham analyst John Todaro told investors. TipRanks The call matters because Coinbase’s revenue still swings with how much customers trade, not just where bitcoin is priced. Late-December sessions are typically thin, and that can expose any slowdown in activity. Needham’s trimmed target still sits above

Beckham-backed Prenetics stops Bitcoin buying, eyes up to $200 million IM8 revenue

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:25 ET Prenetics Global Ltd said on Tuesday it has stopped buying bitcoin and will not make additional purchases, redirecting its capital allocation to its IM8 health supplement brand. The Nasdaq-listed health sciences company said it halted daily buying on Dec. 4 and will keep its 510 bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset. StreetInsider.com The decision marks a pullback from a bitcoin treasury strategy — where a company holds the cryptocurrency as part of its cash reserves — that can quickly reshape balance sheets when prices swing. Bloomberg described Prenetics as the latest firm to

Strategy (MSTR) stock rises as bitcoin steadies after fresh $109 million purchase

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:34 ET — Regular session Strategy Inc shares rose 0.8% to $156.66 in morning trading on Tuesday, tracking a modest uptick in bitcoin a day after the company disclosed another round of share sales to fund crypto purchases. The moves matter because Strategy has become a high-beta proxy for bitcoin: when the token swings, the stock often swings more. Investors have also focused on dilution risk, since the firm regularly issues equity to raise cash for bitcoin buys. Contentstack+1 Bitcoin was up about 0.9% on the day, while other crypto-linked stocks were mixed, with Coinbase

XRP price today holds near $1.87 as Fed minutes loom and liquidity thins

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:03 ET — Regular session XRP was little changed on Tuesday morning, trading at about $1.87, as investors headed into the final days of the year with crypto volumes still subdued. The token was up about 0.1% over the past 24 hours, CoinMarketCap data showed. CoinMarketCap The muted move matters because crypto has become tightly tied to U.S. rate expectations and cross-asset risk sentiment, while many market participants are away for the holidays. Thin liquidity — fewer active buyers and sellers — can make prices more sensitive to relatively small orders. Research firm 10x Research
XRP ETFs cross $1 billion in inflows as bitcoin funds see December exitsNEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 07:41 ET

XRP ETFs cross $1 billion in inflows as bitcoin funds see December exitsNEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 07:41 ET

U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded funds have attracted more than $1 billion of net inflows since launching in November, with no day of net outflows so far, SoSoValue data show. XRP was trading around $1.88 at the time of reporting, about 49% below its July record of $3.65, and Acheron Trading quantitative trader Jonathan Yark said: “We’re in a genuine adoption phase for crypto ETFs.” DL News The streak matters because crypto ETF demand is starting to spread from bitcoin and ether into smaller tokens. Fund flows can signal where institutions want exposure as markets head into the new year. For

Bitcoin price today slides toward $87K as ETF outflows weigh; Strategy, Coinbase stocks in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 04:13 ET — Premarket Bitcoin slipped early Tuesday, down 1.9% at $87,748 after trading between $86,780 and $89,410, with investors cautious in thin year-end conditions. The move matters because crypto has been trading more like other risk assets — sensitive to shifts in interest-rate expectations and liquidity. With U.S. markets heading into the final two sessions of the year, relatively small flows can push prices around. Reuters Attention has also turned back to the spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), vehicles that hold bitcoin and trade like shares. Those funds helped broaden access to bitcoin, but

XRP price today: Ripple token slides below $2 as Fed minutes loom, ETF inflows hold up

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 04:20 ET — Premarket XRP fell about 2.1% to $1.86 in early New York hours on Tuesday, slipping back below the $2 mark as a broad pullback in cryptocurrencies extended into year-end trade. The token changed hands between $1.84 and $1.90, while bitcoin and ether were also lower. The move comes as investors thin out positions into the final sessions of 2025, with market liquidity — the ease of buying or selling without moving price — typically lighter around the holidays. U.S. stocks ended lower on Monday as risk appetite softened, adding to a cautious

Sberbank’s first crypto-backed loan to a bitcoin miner lands as Russia tightens trading rules

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:10 ET Sberbank, Russia’s largest bank, said it has issued the country’s first crypto-backed loan to Intelion Data, one of Russia’s biggest bitcoin miners, using digital currency mined by the firm as collateral. Sberbank did not disclose the loan size or the amount of cryptocurrency pledged, and said it will hold the collateral in its own wallets until the loan is repaid. “The regulation of the digital currency market is still in its infancy in Russia,” said Anatoly Popov, Sberbank’s deputy chair.

Bitmine Immersion (BMNR) stock in focus after $13.2B crypto stash update as year-end trading thins

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:48 ET — Market closed Shares of Bitmine Immersion Technologies last traded at $28.54, up 0.8% from the previous close, after swinging between $27.80 and $29.60 in Monday’s session. The company said its crypto, cash and other investments totaled $13.2 billion as of Dec. 28, including 4,110,525 ether — the token of the Ethereum blockchain — at $2,948 each, 192 bitcoin, $1.0 billion in cash, a $23 million stake in Eightco Holdings and 408,627 staked ether. “Year-end tax-loss related selling is pushing down crypto and crypto equity prices,” Chairman Thomas “Tom” Lee said, noting Bitmine

MARA stock slips as bitcoin fails at $90,000; Fed minutes in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:23 ET — Market closed MARA Holdings Inc shares slipped 1.1% to $9.49 in the last session, after trading between $9.38 and $9.84 on volume of about 29.6 million shares. Bitcoin fell about 2% to $87,869. The move matters because bitcoin miners tend to amplify swings in the underlying token. They earn revenue in bitcoin while paying many costs — including power and equipment — in dollars, which can widen the impact of crypto price moves on equity valuations. Bitcoin retreated toward $87,000 after failing to hold above $90,000, a level traders have treated as
