Honorable mention

Ethereum

Investors seem to be liking Ethereum, as some of them are ready to pay five times more than its price. Grayscale Ethereum Trusts offers Ether at a 515% premium, and people still like it.

It costs $90.55 to buy one share in the Grayscale Investments’ Ethereum Trust. However, this share currently only holds $16.10 worth of Ether.

Ripple

XRP spent the past couple of days fighting to stay above $0.2. However, the tight range between $0.2 and $0.205 was not enough for XRP, so the price had to move somewhere. A slight increase in bearish presence brought the price down to rested the $0.19 levels and solidified XRP’s position below $0.2. The level seems to be holding up nicely so far, which means that $0.19 will not fall unless the volume increases dramatically.





XRP’s RSI level has been dropping for the past couple of days, now being at 45.
