Ethereum hovered near the $2,500–$2,600 support zone after sliding below $2,800, while traders watched a weekly head-and-shoulders formation develop. ETF flows turned negative on 30 January 2026 with $113 million withdrawn and weekly losses reaching $58.4 million, even as Spot Taker Buy Dominant volume rose when price lost $2,800. With institutional exits and a potential U.S. government shutdown looming, ETH’s direction hinges on whether buyers can defend the range highlighted by recent on-chain data.

On Jan 29, 2026, XRP logged $6.9 million in ETF inflows before a record $98 million outflow pushed net daily losses to $92.92 million. Additional buys from Nasdaq, Bitwise and Franklin partly offset selling, while the price fell roughly 10%. The failure to reclaim key levels leaves downside risk toward $1.26 ahead of February events.

On 28 January, Pippin (PIPPIN) jumped 69% in 24 hours as trading volume rose over 600% and Open Interest increased. CoinGlass highlighted liquidity bands at $0.55 and $0.47 that could trigger liquidations, while StalkChain showed $120,889.40 in smart-money buys. Price hovered near the $0.71 high with resistance at $0.55–$0.56 and a target near $0.90.

On 26 January, U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs recorded $117 million in net inflows, with Fidelity adding $137 million while BlackRock saw net outflows. As ETH traded around $2,908 and network fees fell to their lowest level since May 2017, liquidity support formed near $2,900 and $2,850, but weak momentum indicators cast doubt on a clean break above $3,000.

Avalanche's AVAX token has recorded a sharp rise in on-chain activity, with active addresses climbing from 30,000 to over 600,000 within a week while the price trades near $12. Despite this network growth and C-Chain transaction momentum, technical signals such as a weakening MACD, a descending triangle pattern and RSI near its lower range point to a potential breakdown of the $11.3 support that could extend losses toward $8.60. If bullish sentiment returns and key resistance between $18 and $22 is regained, the price could revisit higher levels within the current pattern.

On 23 January 2026, the Russell 2000 pushed through the $2,461 neckline, completing a cup-and-handle breakout that often reflects rising risk appetite. With Total Crypto Market Cap (Total 2) holding $1.2 trillion support and targeting $1.7 trillion, and ETH/BTC attempting to break a long-term downtrend, traders are watching for a possible altcoin rally.

On 22 January, MYX rose 12%, topping gainers, according to X. The move followed the project's V2 airdrop on 8 January that distributed 5 million MYX (about $29.45M) and 5 million ZKP to early users. Traders are watching $6.12 resistance and $4.40 support as momentum indicators show strength.

Avalanche's AVAX token recently set a record with about 1.7 million Daily Active Addresses, highlighting robust on-chain usage. Whale accumulation near $12 and sustained Taker Buy dominance through January 2026 kept the price supported, while traders now watch resistance levels around $15.36 and $18.52 and possible upside toward $24.18.

Litecoin dropped 6.54% on January 19, 2026, according to CoinMarketCap, even as last week's spot ETF products saw $2M of net inflows. CoinGlass data showed Open Interest rising to $635M and volume to $1.1B, while CryptoQuant pointed to larger spot order sizes from whales. LTC traded around $70.21 and approached the $52 support area observed on TradingView.
