XRP Has No Major Resistance for Massive Rally After Defending $2.80 Support: Analyst

XRP traded near $2.98 at press time, gaining 2% in the last 24 hours and 6% across the week. Analysts point to $2.80 as a key level that could determine whether the token continues its rebound.

$2.80 Holds as Key Support

Crypto analyst Ali Martinez said XRP defended $2.80, which has become a realized cost basis for a large number of holders. Data from Glassnode shows that about 2.18 billion tokens, equal to over 3% of the circulating supply, last moved at this price point.

Below this level, realized distribution is much thinner, meaning fewer holders are positioned to sell. That reduces immediate selling pressure, leaving the token more room to rise if demand builds.

Breakout Watch Near $3.18

Analyst CoinsKid pointed to a descending triangle pattern where XRP has compressed between falling resistance and horizontal support. The price is again testing resistance below $3.00, while $2.80 remains the base.

They also warned that a rejection could roll price back toward the ascending white trendline below $2.8. This structure, they explained, could form an “expanding leading diagonal setup” that still leaves scope for a larger advance over time.

$3.13 Seen as the Pivot Level

EGRAG CRYPTO identified $3.13 as the pivot point, calling it a decisive barrier on the Fibonacci retracement chart. A close above it would confirm continuation and open a target around $4.4, with further extensions toward $6 and $7 marked on his chart.

These downside levels align with the broader channel, keeping the longer-term structure intact even if corrections follow.

In addition, the technical setup comes as XRP adoption expands. Japanese giant SBI Holdings recently launched an XRP lending program aimed at institutional payments. Meanwhile, Ripple CTO David Schwartz has stepped into an emeritus role.

As CryptoPotato reported, several spot XRP ETF filings await SEC decisions starting Oct. 18. These developments, alongside XRP’s test of resistance levels, make the coming weeks critical for both price action and adoption trends.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark. Sponsored Sponsored “The friendly fork model had a good intention but bad execution where the DAO was too friendly towards these forks, allowing the DAO only little upside,” the report states. Third, the instance model, once a smart…
