XRP Could Drop 50% If This Pattern Plays Out

XRP is staring down a textbook head-and-shoulders pattern, and if it completes, legendary trader Peter Brandt thinks we could see a 55% drop—all the way to $1.07.

XRP's already underperforming, even as Bitcoin rallies. Trading volumes are down 35% in a week, and it's lost most of the gains from the "SEC lawsuit is over" spike.

Not saying panic... but maybe tighten those stop-losses.

Hard to argue with that.

Microsoft Pulls Plug on AI Centers, Bitcoin Mining Stocks Take a Hit

Definitely didn't see this one coming: Microsoft pulled the plug on its AI data center plans in the U.S. and Europe—and Bitcoin mining stocks took an immediate hit.

Bitfarms, Riot, Marathon Digital, and the rest dropped between 4–12%, as the market realized miners were counting on AI demand to cushion those post-halving revenue cuts.

TL;DR: No AI boom = no backup plan, and Wall Street didn't take it well.

OPINION

Bitcoin = Digital Gold Rush 2.0?

In 1848, gold sparked an economic revolution. In 2025, Bitcoin's suiting up for a sequel.

Forget pickaxes—this time it's ASICs, algorithms, and digital scarcity leading the charge. Bitcoin isn't just climbing charts; it's reshaping how we think about money itself.

This isn't about price pumps. It's about a financial reset—and Bitcoin's at the center of it.
