The post Bitcoin Price Prediction 2025: Is BTC Price Heading to $100K? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News After a steep upswing, the Bitcoin price is experiencing a small pullback, forming yet another higher high. Although the bears are exerting pressure, the bulls continue to dominate the token, which has been reflected in the chart pattern. The formation of higher highs and lows hints towards a strong presence of bulls. As a result, the BTC price is primed to trigger a strong rebound and revive a strong upswing towards the target of forming a new ATH. Ever since the rebound from the lows below $75,000, the BTC price has been rising within a pattern. The price spikes high, consolidates for a while and later triggers the next breakout. During every consolidation, liquidity accumulates on either side of the price, which indicates the growing uncertainty among the market participants. A similar accumulation has been observed during the current consolidation, which suggests another breakout could be fast approaching. Source: X The BTC price is hanging between the two major cliffs, as a drop below $101,000 could activate the magnet at $100K or below, while a break above $105,000 may revive a strong rally towards new highs. Besides, a steady drop in the USDT dominance since April is a clear sign of funds pouring into BTC and altcoins. Moreover, the institutions are buying more than the miners can produce, which suggests a 3 times more supply squeeze is incoming. Coming to technicals, the Bitcoin Z-score indicator has printed a new cycle high, signaling more price acceleration to come for the token. Historically, this indicator moving up fast usually indicates the start of a parabolic run on Bitcoin. Besides, the daily MACD hints towards a bearish crossover, while the rise of buying pressure is seen in the weekly timeframe. However, the RSI in both timeframes is plunging, hinting towards a drop in the strength of the rally, which could result in a pullback close to $100K.

Coinbase, the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency exchange, was hit by a $20 million ransom demand as cyber criminals attempted to steal sensitive user data from the exchange. Cyber criminals have bribed and recruited a “group of overseas support agents” to steal Coinbase customer data to facilitate social engineering schemes such as phishing attacks . “These insiders abused their access to customer support systems to steal the account data for a small subset of customers,” wrote Coinbase in a May 15 X post , adding that no passwords, private keys, funds, or Coinbase Prime accounts were affected. Less than 1% of Coinbase’s monthly transacting users’ data was affected by the attack.

TL;DR Ethereum’s massive exchange outflows and increased whale accumulation fuel optimism for a continued uptrend. However, ETH’s RSI on the daily scale has climbed to 71, entering overbought territory and signaling a potential short-term correction. Ready for Another Catapult? The second-biggest cryptocurrency has taken center stage lately, with its valuation soaring in the past few weeks and outperforming bitcoin (BTC) and many other leading digital assets. On Мay 13, the price for one ether (ETH) surged past $2,700 for the first time since late February. In the following days, there was a slight retracement, and currently, the asset is worth roughly $2,550 (per CoinGecko’s data). Still, this represents a significant increase compared to the crash below $1,400 observed at the start of April and a 54% rise on a monthly scale. ETH Price, Source: CoinGecko According to some important metrics, there’s much more room for growth. The popular X user Ali Martinez revealed that around one million ETH had been withdrawn from exchanges in the last month alone. The USD equivalent of this significant stash is more than $2.5 billion. As CryptoPotato previously reported , nearly half of the amount was withdrawn in the past seven days. The development indicates a shift from centralized exchanges toward self-custody methods and is generally considered a bullish factor since it reduces the immediate selling pressure. Additionally, many well-known X users have pointed to the increased whale activity lately. CryptoJack claimed that large investors have been loading up ETH “like never before.” It is worth mentioning that he showed the buying spree of Abraxas Capital , an investment company that recently acquired millions of tokens. The whales’ actions are closely monitored by smaller players who may decide to follow suit and hop on the bandwagon. Large-scale accumulation also reduces the available supply of ETH, and when paired with steady or rising demand, this can create upward pressure on the price. Meanwhile, multiple analysts have recently made optimistic predictions about the short term. X user Kamran Asghar set the next target at $2,800, while CRYPTOWZRD expects a successful breakout of the $2.8K resistance level, which could push the price toward $3,550. Those willing to explore additional forecasts involving ETH can take a look at our dedicated article here . This Indicator Suggests a Possible Pullback Despite the overall bullish conditions and opinions, ETH’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) warns about a potential downward trajectory in the short term. The momentum oscillator measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes to help traders assess possible trend reversals. It varies from 0 to 100, and readings above 70 typically signal that ETH has entered overbought territory and could soon experience a correction. The RSI on a daily scale is set at 71.

The post Fartcoin Price Eyes $2 As Hyperliquid Listing Hype Pushes Open Interest to Record Highs appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Key Highlights: Fartcoin surged over 575% from its Q2 bottom, currently trading near $1.26. A confirmed Tier-1 DEX listing on Hyperliquid has propelled futures open interest to a record $712M. DEX volume hit $261.88M with over 341,000 trades, signaling peak user participation. Price structure is mirroring the December–January breakout, hinting at another major move. Short-term targets lie at $1.76–$2.00, with the ATH at $2.74 within reach if momentum holds. Fartcoin surged toward $2 as excitement builds around its Hyperliquid DEX listing. With open interest hitting record highs and on-chain activity accelerating, bullish momentum remains intact. Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), a meme-meets-AI token launched on the Solana-based Pump .fun is staging a powerful comeback, with price action and on-chain signals pointing toward a potential breakout above $2. After a deep correction in Q1 2025, the token has rebounded more than 575% from its March low of $0.20. Currently hovering around $1.26, Fartcoin has flipped key resistance zones and is gaining strength from renewed market attention. Fartcoin Price Surge Mirrors Previous Rallies Fartcoin rose to a high of $1.44 earlier this week, its highest since mid-January, and is currently up 17.97% in the past 7 days, trading near $1.26. This marks a major recovery from its March lows near $0.20, and puts the coin approximately 575% above its Q2 bottom. The current price structure is closely mirroring Fartcoin’s December–January breakout, where multiple small rallies stacked to eventually drive a surge to the all-time high of $2.74. The ongoing rounded bottom pattern, formed between March and May, reflects the same U-shaped consolidation that preceded the last parabolic run. In both cycles, small breakout candles formed consistently over a 4–6 week period, followed by a strong bullish breakout when price breached key horizontal resistance. If this historical rhythm plays out again, a similar acceleration could send Fartcoin beyond $2.00 within the next 1–2 weeks. RSI is holding at 61–62 — bullish but not overbought. MACD remains positive and shows no divergence. Volume and OBV confirm sustained accumulation. A decisive close above $1.46 could push the coin toward the 0.618 Fib level at $1.76, with a clear path toward $2.00 and $2.19 if momentum continues. On-chain data reinforces the technical picture. According to CoinGlass, open interest surged to $712M , a new all-time high for the Fartcoin memecoin — an indication of growing speculative and institutional appetite. On Dune Analytics, daily DEX volume spiked to $261.88M on May 12, with over 341,000 trades — the highest since Fartcoin’s previous ATH run. Together, these metrics suggest both whales and retail are positioning for a sustained move. Fartcoin Price Prediction: $2 in Play If momentum holds, a clean breakout above $1.46 could send the token into the $1.76–$2.00 range over the next 1–2 weeks , mirroring the timeline of its January breakout. Fartcoin may encounter temporary corrections near these zones — as seen on January 16 ($1.00 retest) and January 21 ($1.46 pullback) — before surging higher. In the mid-term, the ultimate target remains the $2.74 ATH , provided volume and sentiment stay strong. However, failure to hold $1.20 could result in pullbacks toward $1.00 or even $0.88, both acting as strong historical supports. In short, Fartcoin’s rally is more than meme-fueled speculation — it’s a pattern-driven breakout backed by data and liquidity. As long as key support zones hold, the odds favor a retest of $2 and possibly new highs.
Key takeaways : XRP forms a double top and rising wedge, signaling short-term downside risk toward $1.94. NUPL indicates traders are in denial, resembling past pre-crash phases. Long-term charts still point to bullish targets between $3.69 and $17. XRP ( XRP ) has rebounded by more than 50% over a month after forming a local low at $1.80. Improving risk appetite and prospects of an “ altseason ” have boosted its price. Could XRP rally further from current levels or risk a pullback in the coming days? Let’s examine. XRP “double top” pattern hints at sell-off XRP formed a double top near $2.65, signaling a possible trend reversal. The pattern includes two clear peaks and a neckline around $2.47. After the second peak, XRP dropped below the neckline, confirming the bearish setup. XRP/USD four-hour price chart. Source: TradingView A confirmed breakdown below this level points to a downside target near $2.30. The double top suggests weakening momentum after a strong rally. If buyers fail to break above $2.65, the pattern remains in play and bearish. Rising wedge hints at possible 20% XRP price crash XRP also broke down from a rising wedge pattern, signaling a shift from bullish to bearish momentum. Recent failed attempts to break above the pattern’s upper trendline from the pattern reiterate the same. A wedge breakdown is confirmed when the price falls below its lower trendline, which XRP appears to be attempting as of May 15. The cryptocurrency is additionally testing support from the 50-4H exponential moving average (50-4H EMA; the red wave). XRP/USD four-hour price chart. Source: TradingView Breaking below the support zone increases the chance of XRP falling another 20% to around $1.94. This level comes from measuring the height of the rising wedge pattern and subtracting it from the breakdown point. The $2.00–$2.04 range is also important because it holds a large number of leveraged long positions worth around $50 million, according to data resource CoinGlass . XRP/USD liquidation heatmap (3 months). Source: CoinGlass If XRP drops below this range, many of these positions could be forced to close, causing a long squeeze. That would add selling pressure and push the price closer to the $1.94 target. XRP traders are in “denial” — onchain metric XRP’s Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) has shifted into the Belief–Denial zone, shown in green on the Glassnode chart below. When in denial, many still expect prices to rise, even as momentum fades. XRP NUPL 30-day average vs. price chart. Source: Glassnode This NUPL level has historically marked the early stages of major corrections. For example, XRP entered this phase before sharp declines in 2018 and 2021. If history repeats, XRP may face more downside in the short term, paving the way toward the price targets highlighted by the double top and rising wedge technical setups. XRP long-term charts stay bullish A counter analysis indicates a potential 45% rally toward $3.69 by June if a breakout from a multimonth falling wedge pattern plays out as intended. XRP/USD three-day price chart. Source: TradingView However, if XRP falls back below the wedge's upper trendline and loses support at the 20-day (purple) and 50-day (red) exponential moving averages (EMA), the bullish setup could be invalidated, risking a decline toward $1.75.
