This cycle has been ongoing for the altcoin since the month of September. Despite the recent rally of the crypto market, the virtual coin declined by 1.3% over the last 24 hours and is still down by 4.4% for the past two weeks. At press time, according to tracking from Coingecko, the digital currency is trading at $0.47. A bit of good news for investors is that its Relative Strength Index is within an ascending support line which denotes a bullish signal for the asset that is the subject of an ongoing court battle between Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Ripple Focusing On Development To Help XRP Despite being in a long-standing legal tussle, Ripple is turning its focus to network development activities that will help XRP recover from its losses. The company recently announced the launching of its third wave of $250 million creator fund which is open for all creators of both digital and physical non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Ripple said the application is open until December 30, 2022 and all interested applicants are welcome to try their luck for the millions worth of creator fund. This is still in line with the company’s goal of increasing network activity of Ripple users and also underscores their interest to grow their NFT market. Should Investors Buy XRP Today? As the crypto is not moving much in terms of price range, investors might opt to buy right now and hold their tokens while waiting for the next bullish market rally. XRP whales are doing the same, accumulating as much as they can even during the mini surge that helped the crypto space push its overall valuation back to over $1 trillion. It is, however, important to note that addresses holding more than 10 million tokens have sold their XRP and trimmed their balances. This would mean that while some big investors are buying, the others are selling, ensuring balance to the asset’s distribution. Some analysts believe it is wise to hold the asset for now as the Ripple Labs is on the verge of finally winning its legal battle against SEC. They are looking at this development as a catalyst to trigger an XRP rally that will finally break its bearish cycle.

MAtPolygon (MATIC), the Ethereum layer-2 protocol, is swimming in gains throughout October. The last seven days alone have seen the coin increase by over 12% and currently sits at a value of $0.941. Polygon is one of the highest-performing coins on CoinMarketCap, with a market cap of just above $8 billion. Polygon suffered a devastating dip in price this June. However, it has slowly recovered since then, reaching a peak of $1.04 in the middle of August. The MATIC price reached $0.95 on October 26th, close to its August all-time high. This was possible thanks to significant community support, strategic alliances, new product releases, and developer activity.

But this makes it something of an exception in the red crypto market. MATIC Looks Pretty With Weekly/Monthly Gains In the past week and month, MATIC has gained more than 12% and 26%, respectively. Polygon’s favourable price performance in this period has been driven by dramatically increased user activity. According to CryptoSlate’s analysis, the number of unique IP addresses on the network has increased significantly, reaching levels not seen since July. There has been a rise in Polygon’s user base, but this hasn’t resulted in a MATIC sell-off just yet. More and more MATIC is being withdrawn from exchanges, suggesting that users are shifting their attention away from trading. They are now using the tokens on the many dApps and services sprouted on the Polygon platform. According to CryptoSlate data, the highest exchange outflow for MATIC occurred in April 2021. This was exactly when MATIC’s rapid surge brought its price to an ATH of $2. The growth in Polygon’s user base in October is a direct outcome of the platform’s overall popularity. It has quickly become the preferred platform for various organizations, services, and products, including Reddit and its ambitious NFT plans. Polygon (MATIC) Price Analysis: Where Is the Token Headed? Polygon has been flat since August, but there has been an uptick in bullish activity as of late. After gaining over 12% over the past week, the price is once again testing the critical resistance level at $1. In the event that MATIC can rise beyond $1, this prolonged consolidation period will come to an end. So far, traders have been successful in keeping the price above the important support level of $0.86. If current momentum continues, we could see a test of the critical resistance as soon as the first week of November. Although the bears were able to push the price down in August, a repeat of that low might be seen as favourable.

This token may enter a continuous rally in November, which may take it to $1.3, which will be the next target. However, this might only happen if the bulls can maintain the strong momentum it has been experiencing throughout the month. Featured image from Pixabay and chart from TradingView.com

Shiba Inu (SHIB) momentarily moved out of its bearish streak that’s been going for the past few weeks on October 25 when the crypto market made a rally to reclaim the $1 trillion market cap turf. SHIB went up by 10% since October 25 before its recent price correction Shiba Inu lost 2% of its value over the last 24 hours The crypto is still up by almost 8% for the past week In doing so, the Dogecoin spin-off crypto managed to upend weeks of being in a downward trend that’s been very brutal to the 14th ranked cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization. SHIB, however, wasn’t able to sustain its upward trajectory as it once again made a step back for the past 24 hours. At press time, according to tracking from Coingecko, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001070. It’s been down by 2% over the last day but is still up by 7.9% for the past week. Shiba Inu Price Chart Hints At Another Price Correction SHIB’s 12-hour chart shows price trend is swinging sideways and there is no definite consolidation on a bullish region. Source: TradingView The altcoin did manage to increase by up to 10% since October 25 but has suffered price correction over the last few hours. Its Relative Strength Index (RSI) was leaning towards a bullish movement during that time but the current price movement says otherwise. If Shiba Inu fails to rebound from this minor price dump, the crypto might find itself on a downward movement once again. It’s also a surprise that Dogecoin’s momentum is no longer helping SHIB right now considering DOGE witnessed a significant price surge just moments after Tesla CEO Elon Musk took over Twitter.

Experts believe there are three problems that are standing in the way of SHIB to move even just an inch closer in realizing its developers’ dream to flip Dogecoin.  The first issue is that its circulating supply remains highly concentrated as more than 63%of all available SHIB tokens are being held by just 10 wallets which could be owned by fewer than 10 individuals or all by one person. Shiba Inu still has limited case uses as of this time as its most significant use is being a method of exchange. Moreover, there are only 112 merchants that accept the altcoin as a mode of payment. The asset’s network development roadmap is also not clear as there is no definite direction for where it is headed. It’s probably one of the reasons why investors are veering away of the crypto, shifting their focus and resources to assets with well-planned path that ensures ROI and profit.
