Canton rallied over 15% after JPMorgan announced the expansion of JPM Coin onto the Canton Network, shifting focus toward real-world settlement and tokenized finance use cases. The CC price is trading around a cup-and-handle pattern near the $0.160–$0.170 neckline, while derivatives open interest has climbed above $27.5 million and many top traders still hold short positions.

Bitmine, linked to Tom Lee, added 86,400 ETH ($266.3M) to staking, raising its total to 1,080,512 ETH (~$3.33B) as ETH traded near $3,090. Funding rates jumped 66.12% to 0.01275 while price lagged, and resistance around $3,307 capped upside despite an RSI near 51 suggesting early momentum recovery.

Bitcoin’s long-term holders have cut back on selling, with distribution pressure deep in the accumulation zone and average daily spending at 221 BTC, while the SOPR shows they still transact at a profit. Scarcity metrics such as the Stock-to-Flow Ratio at 798.8k and a Stock-to-Flow Reversion of 2.09 point to valuation compression, as spot buyers maintain demand and Bitcoin trades in a consolidation range between $84,473 and $93,476. Liquidations of about $6.6 million, skewed toward $4.64 million in short positions versus $1.95 million in longs, suggest downside pressure is weakening as buyers absorb forced selling.

Tether moved Bitcoin off Bitfinex, contributing to shrinking exchange supply while leverage rises across the market. Derivatives positioning tilts long and dense downside liquidity sits below current ranges, raising the odds of swift moves as positive funding persists and prices consolidate.

Large Chainlink holders recently withdrew significant LINK from Binance and added to reserves, tightening exchange-side supply while price stayed relatively muted. LINK rebounded from a demand zone toward channel resistance between $13.20 and $13.50, with $11.75 acting as key support and $14.65 and $16.66 overhead. Derivatives data showed short liquidations of about $59.46k versus $10.55k for longs on 26 December, pointing to fading downside pressure as buy-side absorption persisted under resistance.

ETF activity and blockchain metrics now point to sharply different setups for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP heading toward 2026. Bitcoin has moved into a historically discounted valuation zone, Ethereum is seeing large withdrawals from exchanges despite ETF outflows, and XRP’s spot ETFs have built over $1.16 billion in assets. These contrasting signals suggest capital is rotating selectively among the three major assets instead of flowing uniformly into the crypto market.

On 10 December, a 750 million ADA transfer into Binance injected significant liquidity, yet Cardano’s price held near $0.46 as buyers absorbed the impact. Technical signals, including a break above a multi‑month descending regression channel, an RSI around 50.56, and rising Spot Taker Buy CVD alongside Open Interest at $814.87 million, point to an improving market structure despite resistance at $0.48–$0.50 and higher targets at $0.60 and $0.6975. Dense liquidation liquidity between $0.48 and $0.50 on Binance continues to threaten short‑term volatility while also providing potential fuel for further upside moves.

Ripple transferred 250 million XRP to an unidentified wallet, reducing tokens available in immediate selling zones. XRP has formed a potential double-bottom pattern near $1.99, with the $2.2443 level serving as the key resistance for a move toward $2.50. Exchange reserves fell 2.51% while funding rates surged over 460%, according to CryptoQuant data.
