UBS Predicts Silver Might Reach Triple Digits in 2026

XRP has started the new year with an interesting amount of upside boost, 
following weeks of consistent bearish movement that ended in 2025. Amid the 
modest bullish sentiment in the market, a recent evaluation has surfaced, 
which proffers a cautious outlook on the XRP price. Related Reading: Ripple 
Builds ‘Next Amazon’ With XRP At The Center, Says Crypto CEO What Does The 
Gravestone Doji Reveal? In a recent post on X, popular analyst Ali Martinez 
shares that a candlestick — specifically the gravestone Doji — has appeared on 
XRP&#8217;s weekly chart. While a standard doji candle typically tells a story of 
indecision between the buyers and sellers of an asset, a gravestone doji tells 
a different tale, in that the three defining features: the open, close, and 
low levels are at or very near the same price. The gravestone Doji also 
presents with a long upper wick (also referred to as a shadow) and has very 
little or no lower wicks. Based on its structure, it becomes apparent what 
must have occurred in the market. A long upper wick is typically a sign of 
bearish rejection after the market has been initially dominated by buyers. 
Simply put, sellers stepped in aggressively to push prices back downwards, 
counteracting previous progress influenced by buyers. This, then, indicates 
the presence of significant resistance above, as the candlestick is unable to 
close above the open price. In this case, the Doji appears on a higher 
(weekly) timeframe, suggesting that this rejection from the upside carries 
significance for price. The upper wick extends towards the $2.41 price level, 
and sharply declines downwards, sending the price towards the $2.06 support. 
Nonetheless, it is worth noting that the appearance of a gravestone doji is 
not automatic bearish news. More accurately, it signals the loss of bullish 
strength, in turn reflecting hesitation or unwillingness among buyers, 
especially in the short to medium-term. Related Reading: Chainlink Stuck In A

At Critical Point For the XRP price to become truly bearish, the weekly candle 
must close beneath the critical $2.00 threshold. When this happens, prices 
could fall to as low as $1.88, where the next support lies, indicating a 
bearish outlook in the short to midterm. On the other hand, the closure of the 
doji above $2.00 will give a glimmer of hope to the XRP price, as 
macroeconomic factors could come into play in injecting new demand into the 
market. In this case, the $2.10 – $2.30 resistance region must be overcome to 
allow a sustained uptrend. As of this writing, XRP trades at $2.08, reflecting 
a measly 0.31% percent move in the last 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap data.

XRP Prints Gravestone Doji On Weekly Timeframe — What This Means For Price

Bitcoin continues to hover within the $90,000 price range, producing no 
significant price movement in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, a subtle on-chain 
development is indicating a potential change in market trend. Related Reading:

STH SOPR Above 1 — Bullish Rebound Or Fakeout? The Short-Term Holder Spent 
Output Profit Ratio (STH-SOPR) is a key on-chain metric that judges investors&#8217; 
sentiment. In definition, the STH-SOPR measures whether Bitcoin holders are 
presently selling their assets at a loss or at a profit. According to 
pseudonymous analyst CryptoMe, this important on-chain metric has recently 
flashed an eye-catching signal that could imply a trend reversal following 
months of deep market corrections. Notably, Bitcoin slipped into a prolonged 
downtrend in early October, after establishing its current all-time high at 
$126,100. On October 10, which represents the initial phase of this price 
correction, CryptoMe states the STH-SOPR fell below 1.0 in line with its 
natural behavior. As seen in the image above, the Bitcoin STH-SOPR stays below 
1.0 during bear seasons to indicate that BTC holders are exiting at a loss. 
During this period, it is also observed that 1.0 midline acts as an effective 
resistance, restricting upward STH-SOPR movement to signal that the market 
structure remains weak. Alternatively, in bullish markets, the STH-SOPR moves 
above 1.0, which becomes a strong price floor provided a buy-side dominance 
remains. According to CryptoMe, this latter positive scenario has occurred in 
the past week, marking the first instance after October 10. In line with 
standard interpretation, CryptoMe explains that this recent development 
represents a new hope for a possible trend reversal if the STH-SOPR sustains 
its move above the 1.0 threshold. Notably, an opposite case would suggest a 
fake-out and possibly reinforce existing bearish market sentiments. Related

Bitcoin Market Overview At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $90,590, 
after a negligible 0.13% gain in the past 24 hours. However, its daily trading 
volume is down by 66.41% and valued at $13.38 billion. This suggests that 
market participation is fading out amid a sustained consolidation. In terms of 
a potential breakout, emerging market catalysts suggest an equal potential for 
the price to swing in either direction. For example, the odds of the Federal 
Open Market Committee implementing a rate cut have dropped drastically from 
95% to 5%. Following recent predictions, the policy committee is likely to 
hold the rates steady, which may draw out a possible negative reaction from 
Bitcoin. On the other hand, regulatory developments in the US are shaping up 
positively. Most notably, the Clarity Act has been slated for a markup 
session, indicating progress toward regulatory clarity that could encourage 
further institutional and retail investment. Featured image from Flickr, chart
