XRP balances on Binance have dropped to around 2.66 billion XRP, the lowest since July 2024, according to a CryptoQuant report by CryptoOnchain. While price tests the $1.80–$1.90 demand zone and momentum weakens, shrinking exchange supply suggests sell-side pressure may be easing. Key levels include $1.80 support and $2.20–$2.40 for a potential recovery.

Ethereum is trading near $2,930 after an extended pullback from the $4,500–$4,800 region, maintaining a bearish pattern even as on-chain supply on Binance drops to its lowest level since September 2024. Technical analysis points to a descending triangle and layered resistance from key moving averages, while on-chain data shows the Ethereum Exchange Supply Ratio on Binance at 0.032, indicating reduced liquid supply that could amplify any demand shift. The $2,800–$2,900 zone remains a critical support area, with a breakdown risking deeper losses and a recovery above $3,200–$3,300 needed to improve the broader structure.

On November 24, Bitcoin traded near $88,438 as Coinbase saw roughly $21.0 billion in seven‑day BTC/ETH inflows, while Binance recorded about $15.3 billion. By December 21, with Bitcoin close to $88,635, Coinbase fell to around $7.8 billion and Binance rose to roughly $10.3 billion, signaling tighter liquidity and a shift in venue activity.

Bitcoin is trading around the $87,000–$88,000 zone after a sharp drop from levels above $110,000, while repeatedly failing to reclaim the $90,000 mark. At the same time, gold and silver prices are advancing as investors rotate toward defensive assets, leaving Bitcoin stuck in a consolidation phase with weakening short-term momentum and cautious market sentiment.

Ethereum has remained below 3,000 since Monday, with price hovering near 2,950 under resistance at 3,200–3,300. Derivatives metrics show record leverage on Binance and a Taker Buy Sell Ratio of 1.13 on December 19, signaling aggressive buying even as the spot structure appears fragile.

Bitcoin has faced strong selling in recent sessions, with price briefly bouncing from around $86,000 toward $90,000 on Wednesday before sliding back to the $86,000 area. On-chain data cited by Axel Adler shows the 30-day Short-Term Holder SOPR has fallen to 0.98, meaning recent sales by short-term holders are being made at a loss. BTC now trades near the $86,000–$88,000 zone around its 200-day moving average after a correction from highs close to $125,000, keeping downside risk and structural weakness in focus.

Bitcoin has fallen over 30% since early October, shifting sentiment from optimism to caution as some market participants view the move as a possible peak. A new thesis argues the classic four-year pattern may be giving way to a structurally supported supercycle. Price action remains weak below 90,000 dollars, with 85,000–86,000 highlighted as key support.

XRP slipped below $2 as liquidity and demand across altcoins weakened. On Binance, futures taker buy volume fell from above $5.8 billion in July to roughly $250 million, a 95.7% drop, highlighting fading conviction. Derivatives signals and price action under key moving averages point to elevated downside risk.

On December 15, CryptoQuant data showed short-term holders moved about 24.7K BTC to exchanges near ~$88.2K, with 86.8% realized in profit and over $1.89 billion in value. As price slipped toward ~$85K on December 16, STH inflows fell to 3.9K BTC while long-term holder inflows were muted, indicating profit-taking rather than structural distribution.
