XRP, Solana Dip as Bitcoin Holds Steady Amid ETF Inflows

Cryptocurrency markets saw mixed performance as XRP and Solana fell by over 3% and 2%, respectively, despite Bitcoin’s steady position near $107,000. ETF inflows and institutional interest cushioned Bitcoin’s performance, while altcoins faced profit-taking after recent rallies. Broader market optimism persisted due to slowing inflation, potential Fed rate cuts, and regulatory clarity in Asia, particularly Hong Kong’s updated crypto guidelines. Analysts suggest Bitcoin could soon test its all-time high of $112,000, while XRP and Solana may stabilize if key support levels hold. The market remains supported by strong fundamentals, with no signs of a broader sell-off.
