Ripple Wins Payments Association Award
On October 5, the Pay360Awards recognized the leading payments industry players. Significantly, Ripple won the digital currencies/assets in the financial services category.
It was a good week for Ripple, which recently celebrated the Programmatic Sales ruling with a New York City Proper Party.
Ripple also entered the CB Insights top 100 most promising fintech startups for 2023. The Ripple team shared the achievement on X (formerly Twitter), saying,
“We’re pleased to share that Ripple is on this year’s Fintech 100 list for our work in modernizing cross-border payments!”
Ripple President Monica Long had this to say about making the top 100,
“Honored to see Ripple recognized in CB Insights’ annual list of top 100 most promising private fintech companies. Hard to put into words how proud I am of all Ripple has achieved in 2023 – a testament to the strength & maturity of our business & powerhouse team.”
Technical Analysis
Bitcoin Analysis
BTC remained above the 50-day and 200-day EMAs, affirming bullish price signals. Significantly, the 50-day EMA pulled further away from the 200-day EMA, signaling a bullish trend.
A BTC break above the $28,187 resistance level would support a run at the Monday high of $28,593.
However, a fall through the EMAs would support a move to the $26,755 support level.
SEC v Coinbase (COIN) and Ripple case-related news and progress toward a BTC-spot ETF market remain focal points.
The 14-Daily RSI reading of 61.17 supports a BTC break above the $28,187 resistance level before entering overbought territory.
Ethereum Analysis
ETH remained below the 50-day and 200-day EMAs, sending bearish price signals.
An ETH move through the 50-day EMA would support a run at the 200-day EMA and $1,746 resistance level. ETH-spot ETF news and inflows into the ETH-Futures ETFs will likely influence buyer appetite.
However, a break below the $1,626 support level would bring $1,600 into play. An ETH drop below $1,600 would give the bulls a run at the $1,502 support level.
The 14-Daily RSI reading of 50.45 supports an ETH return to $1,700 before entering overbought territory.
