Institutional Stakes In XRP Keep Growing Amidst Consolidation; YETIO Investors Eagerly Await Stage 4 Presale

Source Cryptopolitan

XRP price is at $2.05, down 44.57 percent from its all-time high. Still, institutional interest remains strong, which suggests a gap between adoption and valuation. In contrast, Yeti Ouro (YETIO) appears as a new disruptive token that scored exceptionally well during presale and is benefiting from the 27.13% CAGR expansion of the GameFi market. 

XRP Price Prediction

Coming as a remarkable shift, HashKey Capital has launched the first XRP Tracker Fund in Asia, providing a regulated avenue for XRP’s exposure for professional investors without requiring direct custody of the crypto. Ripple, the company behind XRP, has become an early backer of the fund, which suggests secretly supporting the defined structure and goals of the fund. The fund allows institutional investors to redeem or subscribe on a monthly basis, offering conventional terms.

Analysts see this as enabling healthier bridges between traditional finance and crypto, potentially leading to wider institutional access to XRP. On the regulatory side, new changes have been viewed as positive for the XRP ecosystem. The two parties have settled into a 60-day pause in litigation. Market watchers consider the hope for potential settlement talks.

Several applications for an XRP ETF are still awaiting regulatory feedback, as prediction markets suggest there is an 82% chance of at least one approval by year-end, a development that could significantly boost market liquidity. 

From a technical angle, XRP price is now moving within a narrow range of $2.05 and $2.12. Also, the 50-day EMA currently sitting at $2.07 acts as support. While the momentum indicators remain neutral, decisive technical levels are leaning toward directional shifts, with resistance at $2.12 and $2.23 and support also at $2.05 and $1.93. 

Despite the action being relatively dormant, XRP price is likely positioning itself for future acceleration in response to evolving market conditions due to a combination of strong institutional adoption, anticipated clarity on regulations, and a period of technical consolidation.

All About YETIO: The GameFi Emblem Of The Year

Yeti Ouro (YETIO) is a cryptocurrency project on the Ethereum chain that combines elements of a meme coin with a Play-to-Earn gaming utility. It is gearing up for Stage 4, having raised over $3.36 million in presale thus far. In Stage 3, tokens are priced at $0.024, 100% higher than the token price in Stage 1. This has given early bird investors a 100% ROI. With over 218 million tokens sold, they are waiting for Stage 4, when the token price will increase to $0.041. The current stage ends in less than 2 days. 

The smart contracts of the project are SOLIDProof-checked, which instils the trust of the chain. The project is offering a limited time Easter bonus of 30% on all token purchases until the end of the day today one day ahead of Stage 3 end. 

Yeti Go is the name of the project’s core component—an action-packed racing game built using Unreal Engine 5 where players compete in elimination-type competitions for fun and YETIO tokens. Players can earn tokens by beating races, completing challenges, and ranking on leaderboards. YETIO tokens can also be used in an in-game marketplace to purchase certain skins, power-ups, and/or customized vehicles.

Yeti Go isn’t just a game—it’s a full-throttle experience that blends cinematic visuals with pulse-pounding audio to pull you into the action. Developed in collaboration with the award-winning team behind titles like Call of Duty, Spider-Man, The Witcher, and Dead Space, it’s crafted for players who crave intensity and immersion. The sound design, created by professionals who’ve worked with Grammy-nominated artists such as Major Lazer, Vybz Kartel, and Kabaka Pyramid, adds emotion and energy to every moment. Scroll down to meet the game’s lead character and step into a world where precision meets power at every turn.

With the capped supply of 1 billion, YETIO’s tokenomics dive 50% for presale, 15% for P2E, and community rewards, respectively, leaving the rest for team, marketing, and dilution. There is a built-in deflationary mechanism of burning 5% YETIO for every transaction, which improves sustainability.

The goal of the project is to create an ecosystem that is beneficial for gamers and investors while maximizing the potential value appreciation of the token.

Timed Gains vs. Macro Disputes: Which Is The Better Bet?

YETIO allows traders to gain the most with its early-stage growth dynamics compared to XRP’s mature consolidation phase. While XRP is trading at 44% below its ATH, with institutional interest slowly trickling in via structured funds, YETIO offers immediate upside with 100% ROI from Stage 1 to 3. The upcoming Stage 4 price surge to $0.041 provides a visible catalyst that is missing in XRP’s price-bound movements.

Bitcoin Slides 5% as Sellers Lean In — Can BTC Reclaim $88,000?Bitcoin has dropped back below $88,000 after rolling over from $90,500, with price still trading under the 100-hour Simple Moving Average. The sell-off found a floor at $85,151, and BTC is now consolidating near that base, but rebounds are facing pressure from a bearish trend line around $89,000. Bulls need to retake $88,000–$89,000 to ease downside risk; failure to do so keeps $85,500–$85,000 and then $83,500 in play, with $80,000 as the deeper “line in the sand.” Bitcoin (BTC) is back in damage-control mode after a sharp pullback wiped out recent gains. The price failed to reclaim the $90,000–$90,500 band, rolled over, and slid through $88,500 before briefly dipping under $87,000. Buyers did show up around $85,000, but the rebound so far looks more like stabilization than a clear trend reversal. Bitcoin dips hard, finds a bid near $85,000(h3) BTC’s latest move lower began when it couldn’t build follow-through above $90,000 and $90,500. Once that upside stalled, sellers took control and pushed price down through $88,500. The slide accelerated enough to spike below $87,000, but the market didn’t free-fall. Bulls defended the $85,000 zone, printing a low at $85,151. Since then, Bitcoin has been consolidating below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the drop from the $93,560 swing high to the $85,151 low — a clue that the bounce is still shallow and that sellers haven’t fully backed off yet. Structurally, BTC is still on the back foot: It’s trading below $88,000, and It remains below the 100-hour Simple Moving Average, keeping short-term trend pressure pointed downward. Resistance is layered, and $89,000 is the problem area(h3) If bulls try to turn this into a recovery, they’ll have to climb through multiple ceilings in quick succession. First, BTC faces resistance around $87,150, followed by a more meaningful barrier near $87,500. From there, the market’s attention snaps back to $88,000 — the level BTC just lost and now needs to reclaim. A close back above $88,000 would improve the tone, but it doesn’t solve the bigger issue: there’s a bearish trend line on the hourly BTC/USD chart (Kraken feed) with resistance near $89,000, which also lines up with the next technical hurdle. If BTC can push through $89,000 and hold, the rebound could extend toward $90,000, with follow-through targets at $91,000 and $91,500. But until price clears that $88,000–$89,000 zone, rallies are at risk of being sold rather than chased. If BTC fails to reclaim resistance, the downside path is clear(h3) The near-term bear case is simple: if Bitcoin can’t climb back above the $87,000 area and keep traction, sellers may attempt another leg lower. Support levels line up like this: Immediate support: $85,500 First major support: $85,000 Next support: $83,500 Then $82,500 in the near term Below that, the major “don’t break this” level is still $80,000. If BTC slips under $80,000, the risk of acceleration to the downside increases significantly — not because it’s magic, but because it’s the kind of psychological and structural level that tends to trigger forced de-risking. Indicators: momentum still leans bearish(h3) The intraday indicators aren’t offering much comfort yet: Hourly MACD is losing pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI remains below 50, suggesting sellers still have the upper hand on short timeframes. So while the $85,000 defense held for now, the market hasn’t flipped bullish — it’s just stopped bleeding.
