The altcoins, bless their hearts, are once again drowning in crimson. There’s Ethereum, once strutting proudly above $3,300 on a warm Sunday evening, now wallowing below $3,100, as if someone pulled the rug right out from under it. And let’s not forget poor XRP, losing its grip on the precious $2.00 support like a cat thrown into water-flailing and confused.
The same pesky support level that used to crush every rally is back in the spotlight. And guess what? ETF demand just had its best week since the dinosaurs roamed the earth (well, 2026, but still impressive).
According to a recent Channels Television jawfest, the SEC’s new rule is turnin’ the crypto range into a no-man’s-land for all but the deepest-pocketed wranglers. ₦2 billion in capital? Why, that’s enough to make a local startup’s knees knock louder than a tin roof in a thunderstorm.
With this, the cryptocurrency has erased all its gains from January 14th and is once again trading at the levels we saw on the 12th, as shown in the chart below. Because nothing says “stability” like a time loop of panic.
The Bitcoin price slipped below $91k, and now LINK is tanking. Retail investors are screaming into the void, while whales are out here adding to their stashes since late 2025. They’re like, “Sure, the market’s a dumpster fire, but I’ll just sit here and build a moat of LINK.” Meanwhile, the rest of us are Googling “how to sell fast” and crying into our crypto tax reports.
On a crisp Tuesday morning, as the world adjusted its monocles, Trump-arriving in Davos like a Cossack at a symphony-announced with the subtlety of a bear in a china shop that Greenland “must” be America’s. Not “might,” not “could be nice,” but must. As though the island were a forgotten sock, finally located beneath the geopolitical couch. 🧦🇺🇸
Coinbase Premium Index is acting like a sad emoji, showing weak US demand. But hey, staking is booming! 🏗️🔥
Staring into the abyss, stocks and crypto decided to take a quick nosedive, opting instead for the tantalizing security of gold-the one thing they know won’t just vanish into thin air or a bad trade. Meanwhile, currencies beefed up, relishing in newfound strength.
The XRP current price, a prisoner of its own oscillations, remains shackled between $2.00 and $2.10, a gilded cage forged in the fires of recent highs. As of mid-January 2026, the XRP price today mirrors the futility of a man pacing a cell, forever circling the same walls. 🕳️
Bitcoin’s current price tag-$95,000 as of January 18, 2026-is a masterclass in dramatic tension. After a dip to $92,500, it’s as if the market took a deep breath and whispered, “Let’s not panic just yet.” This dip coincided with U.S. tariff announcements that made global markets collectively sigh like a teenager hearing their parents argue about the washing machine. 🤷♂️
