Chainlink carried out its routine quarterly token unlock, releasing nearly 19 million LINK and triggering notable on-chain transfers. Roughly $165 million in LINK moved from non-circulating wallets, including about 14.37 million LINK to Binance and 4.62 million LINK to a multi-signature wallet. After the unlock, LINK traded near $8.64 with 24-hour volume above $343 million, while whale-wallet counts continued rising into April 2026.

BNB revisited its February 6 swing low at $570 within the past 24 hours, raising concerns that sellers still control momentum. During the drop to $570, Open Interest climbed from $530 million to $560 million even as spot CVD trended lower over the past week. Key levels highlighted were $577 and $604, with $530 outlined as the next downside area if support gives way.

XRP is trading above $1.30 again after briefly losing the level for several hours yesterday before buyers pushed it back. A report on Binance activity says XRP deposits and withdrawals on the exchange have fallen to their lowest point since 2025, with roughly 310,500 deposits and about 329,400 withdrawals over the past 30 days. The analysis frames the rebound as occurring in a thinner market, while price remains constrained between roughly $1.20 and $1.50.

XRP has been range-bound for the past few days between $1.30 and $1.35, a zone that an analyst says is pivotal for the next move. Based on an Elliott Wave count shared by crypto analyst Hov, the recent rebound appears corrective rather than impulsive, raising the risk of another leg down if support fails. Key areas mentioned include $1.15 as a deeper support and $1.50 as a level bulls would need to reclaim to target $1.80.

Centrifuge (CFG) rose 12% over the past 24 hours after the project said it would expand to Base Chain and enable trading of tokenized S&P 500 exposure as a new asset class.

Solana (SOL) fell nearly 35% in Q1, but its stablecoin market cap still rose by around 5%, signaling a gap between price performance and on-chain conditions. The network’s total transaction volume has crossed 500 billion, while Solana’s RWA value reached a new all-time high of $2 billion, up more than 40% QoQ. The setup suggests liquidity—particularly USDC supply growth—could play a larger role than price action in driving interest this cycle.
