The crypto market, a grand opera of chaos and caffeine, saw its curtains drawn early Friday, leaving traders clutching their losses like old lovers. XRP, the perennial jester in this circus, traded in red, while macroeconomic shadows and liquidity droughts cast a pall over the stage.
Risk markets, ever the drama queens, wilted overnight, gasping for air ahead of the Federal Reserveās next act. CoinGlass, the oracle of data, whispered of $1.21 billion in liquidations-$943.96 million in longs, $261 million in shorts, a tragicomedy of hubris and haste.
The marketās feeble attempt to recover last week now lies in ruins, like a sandcastle at high tide. Major cryptocurrencies, once buoyant, now sink like stones, their buoyancy sacrificed to the altar of uncertainty.
XRP Volumes: A Symphony of Panic š
At press time, XRP traded down 7.31% in 24 hours, its price a stubborn 21% lower weekly. Yet, amid the carnage, trading volume leaped 67% to $9.03 billion-a desperate waltz of position-shuffling and existential dread.
All eyes now turn to the Fedās October FOMC meeting, a soap opera unfolding on Oct. 28-29. With the government shutdown in its third week, investors cling to Fed speeches like sailors to lifeboats, hoping for crumbs of clarity in a storm of monetary madness.
Rippleās DAT: Billion-Dollar Hail Mary? šø
Bloomberg, ever the gossipmonger, claims Ripple seeks $1 billion to hoard XRP in a new digital-asset treasury (DAT), a treasure chest for the token. If successful, it would be XRPās grandest heist yet.
Ripple also plans to acquire GTreasury for $1 billion, a move that smells of desperation and ambition. One wonders if the DAT will be a lighthouse or a sinking ship-only time, that fickle muse, will tell.
