Road to triple-digit gains for XRP or market downturn?
Crypto analyst Dark Defender said XRP is about to complete its ABC correction pattern. The relative strength index (RSI) is 27, close to oversold, which usually indicates a rebound. He predicts that XRP will soon climb to $3, and if it can stay above the $1.88-$1.91 support level, it may even reach $5-$8.
Litecoin (LTC) Soars Amid Market Uncertainty, Whales Continue to Accumulate
Litecoin has shown resilience amid overall market weakness, thanks to strong whale accumulation. On-chain data from IntoTheBlock shows that large holders traded 75.5 million LTC after Donald Trump announced tariffs. Rather than selling, whales took the opportunity to accumulate 84.8 million LTC, worth about $900 million.
Technical analysis of LTC's price action suggests that there is a critical support zone between $105.53 (Fibonacci 0.5 level) and $115.45 (Fibonacci 0.618 level). The price is currently testing this area and a rebound could occur if buying pressure persists. However, a break below these levels could see LTC head towards the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $99.22, which is a key long-term support level.
Market commentator Peter Brandt has identified a short-term trading opportunity for LTC. His chart analysis highlights a trading range centered at $114.98, suggesting a possible breakout. If LTC breaks above $147.55 (Fibonacci 1 level), a possible target of $199.48 (Fibonacci 1.618 level) would represent an upside of 42%.
PEPE attracts whale attention as emoji coins rotate to change sentiment
Although PEPE is down 74% from its all-time high and is currently trading near $0.00000740, it continues to attract the interest of whales. Analyst Murad pointed out that the 17% PEPE whale has never sold, indicating strong holding confidence.

The chart shows that PEPE is hovering at the critical support area of $0.00000780, just above its lowest range. A break below this level could push the price to $0.00000481, while a successful rebound could target $0.00002838, marking a potential 280% upside. The 50-day and 200-day EMAs (exponential moving averages) act as resistance, limiting any immediate bullish momentum.
As there are concerns about a rug pull on Solana-based emoji coins, investors’ attention may turn to more mature assets such as PEPE. However, PEPE’s RSI is 31.14, close to oversold territory, suggesting that a reversal may be in the cards if buying pressure increases.
in conclusion
XRP, Litecoin, and PEPE are showing very different market trends, and analysts are divided on their next moves. XRP faces an important test between key support and resistance levels, while Litecoin benefits from strong institutional demand. Despite its high volatility, PEPE continues to attract accumulation by whales, suggesting a possible rebound.
