Following the broader market rally, BTC/USD gained 21.0% last week and reached 79,500.00. At the time of this technical snapshot, the pair has surrendered a small part of the advance and is consolidating near 77,200.00.
By John Isige SOL/USD has returned to the main sideways channel of 91.00–75.00, which it briefly left last week, and stabilized near its upper boundary. The market still lacks strong drivers capable of setting a clear direction. The key level for bulls remains 100.00 (Murray [4/8]). A breakout above this level could reverse the long-term downtrend and open the way toward 125.00 (Murray [6/8]) and 137.50 (Murray [7/8], 50.0% Fibonacci retracement). If the price breaks below the lower boundary of 75.00 (Murray [2/8]), bears may regain control with potential targets at 62.50 (Murray [1/8]) and 50.00 (Murray [0/8]).
By John Isige Nearly a 60% drop over the past year has left Cardano investors frustrated. Project founder Charles Hoskinson is now urging the community to become more active. The 2026 crypto bear market has spared no one: Bitcoin has fallen about 20% year-over-year, XRP corrected by 43%, but Cardano has been hit particularly hard — with a painful 64% decline.
By John Isige The ETH/USD pair has returned to the main sideways range of 2187.50–1875.00 (Murray [3/8]–[2/8]), which it briefly left last week, and has stabilized near its upper boundary. From here, downward momentum may resume toward 1875.00 (Murray [2/8], lower Bollinger Band), 1481.60 (100.0% Fibonacci retracement), and 1250.00 (Murray [0/8]). The key level for bulls remains 2500.00 (Murray [4/8], middle Bollinger Band, W1). A breakout above this mark would allow the instrument to exit the descending channel and continue rising toward 2812.50 (Murray [5/8], 61.8% Fibonacci retracement) and 3125.00 (Murray [6/8], 50.0% Fibonacci retracement), opening the way for a possible reversal of the long-term trend.
By John Isige A potential Iran deal is triggering noticeable moves across global markets. Bitcoin remains above the 70,000$ level, but uncertainty remains high. The key question now is whether the crypto market is approaching its next directional move.
By John Isige The XRP/USD pair continues to hold within the sideways channel of 1.5625–1.3671 (Murray [4/8]–[3/8]). Last week, the price reached the lower boundary of this range, but then partially recovered lost ground and is now trading near the middle Bollinger Band line at 1.4235 amid conflicting reports about the development of the US-Iran conflict, which are preventing the instrument from determining a clear direction.
By John Isige While Bitcoin remains stuck in a sideways range, the Ethena stablecoin protocol continues to face selling pressure. Despite a number of positive fundamental developments, the ENA token has lost around 17% over the past seven days, raising the question once again: is a buying opportunity forming, or does the market need more time to stabilize?
By John Isige Last week, the BTC/USD pair tested the 75000.00 mark (Murray [4/8] level), but then resumed its decline and returned to the 68500.00 area. This month, the price has already made several attempts to recover, but has so far failed to establish an upward trend, as geopolitical and monetary factors continue to pressure assets that compete with the US dollar.
By John Isige Rising energy costs, geopolitical risks, and falling revenues are increasing pressure on Bitcoin miners. The first signs of stress are already starting to appear across the network.

For crypto, the framework is similar to traditional financial markets but comes with its own twist. Here, price action turns on liquidity, adoption, regulation, and flows from institutions alongside retail sentiment. Network health—hash rate, staking, active wallets—adds another layer. Macro still matters too: rates, dollar strength, and risk appetite shape inflows and outflows. Then, as with any market, you use the chart—trend, support and resistance, momentum, and volume—to spot setups and manage risk.
