According to a daily crypto news rundown released on a Thursday, XRP has dropped about 25% in 24 hours while roughly $1 trillion has been wiped from the wider digital asset market. The segment highlights deep paper losses at institutional treasuries, negative spot Bitcoin ETF flows, growing U.S. regulatory attention, and the emergence of AI-focused crypto standards like ERC‑8004 alongside new platforms such as Crypto.com's OG.com prediction market.

A long-running crypto market host highlights a new remark from major Bitcoin holder Michael Saylor as a fresh warning signal while BTC trades around the low $70,000s. The analyst reiterates roughly $72,000 as his key accumulation area, contrasts Bitcoin’s muted action with a sharp gold rally and weaker stocks, and argues that growing U.S. political engagement with crypto supports Bitcoin’s long-term case despite short-term anxiety.

An independent market analyst following Hedera's HBAR argues the latest rise from the $0.08–$0.088 area is a corrective "dead cat" bounce within an ongoing downtrend, not the start of a new bull phase. The analyst sees resistance at $0.096, $0.10 and $0.105 and says only a clear five‑wave impulsive move above $0.105 and the main descending trendline would hint at a lasting bottom, while further downside toward $0.08 and possibly the October 10 low near $0.073 remains on the table.

During a live market rundown, a crypto host warned that Bitcoin slipping below $80,000 alongside sizable spot ETF outflows is eroding price support and could deepen a correction, with a downside focus near $68,000 tied to the 200‑week EMA. Over the past 24 hours, according to the host, roughly $1.5–$1.6 billion in positions were liquidated, while U.S. spot ETFs saw month‑to‑date net withdrawals around $1.6 billion.

A crypto analyst argues that stress in Japan’s bond and currency markets could force Tokyo to sell part of its multi-trillion U.S. Treasury portfolio, potentially triggering fresh dollar liquidity from the Federal Reserve and a Bitcoin rally. Against this macro backdrop, the analyst highlights BitTensor’s Subnet 32, Its.AI, as an example of an AI-focused crypto project with paying customers, measurable performance and multiple revenue streams.

A weekend sell-off erased about $230 billion from crypto market value and led to $2.5–$2.53 billion in forced liquidations within 24 hours. Bitcoin briefly fell below $77,000. Despite the turmoil, XRP exchange‑traded products recorded roughly $16.79 million of net inflows, and a busy macro week ahead could add volatility.

On February 2, Bitcoin briefly dipped under $75,000, touching lows near $74,700 during a volatile weekend session before rebounding to around $76,600. The move, occurring amid thin liquidity and broader macro uncertainty, erased almost $800 million in leveraged crypto positions and coincided with a 2.6% drop in total market capitalization to $2.57 trillion. Major altcoins, including Monero, Pump.fun, Kaspa, and Ethereum, also recorded sharp losses as traders shifted into risk-off mode on concerns over tighter U.S. monetary policy and rising geopolitical tensions.

An XRP-focused YouTube host claims BlackRock is eyeing Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin as key collateral for tokenized funds, linking it to a broader $16 trillion tokenization theme by 2030. The video also highlights a January 21, 2026 integration of Ripple technology into DXC's Hogan core banking platform and notes tightening XRP exchange supply alongside spot ETF inflows. While projecting aggressive XRP price scenarios and institutional credit markets on-chain, the analysis stresses RLUSD's centralized design and governance risks around the XRP Ledger's regulatory alignment.

At the start of the new trading week, XRP-focused analyst Cilinix suggested the token may have formed a local bottom after a sharp weekend decline, citing signals from a custom mean reversion indicator and price stability at recent lows. He is watching a short-term range near $1.82–$1.92 and a possible move toward $1.98–$2.00, while stressing that broader macro conditions and Bitcoin's direction remain critical for any sustained upside.
