XRP is trading around $1.30 this morning, roughly flat over the last 24 hours. Ripple's Swell 2026 conference opens today in New York , its biggest edition yet, with 1,500+ attendees and a Garlinghouse–Tom Farley fireside ; but the price hasn't reacted, sitting near a one-month low after sliding from about $1.57 in late September.
The Fed's policy meeting (Oct 27–28) runs through the same window and may matter more than the conference.
To watch: any partnership or deal announcements out of Swell, and whether $1.27 support holds. a break below it opens the way lower, while $1.31–1.32 is the fir

Circle closed at 79.84, down more than 7% on the day.
With another federally regulated peer on the scene, the scarcity premium needs to be recalculated.

We did not get a 4H close last night at or above our 4H DR equilibrium level, so there was no entry condition for a long.
The 4H once again held the 4000 psychological support level.
For now, two scenarios seem most likely. The A1 scenario would be consolidation, with a full wait-and-see approach ahead of the next information release—that is, the next leg down. ⌛️
The B2 scenario would be holding above our 4H DR, then retesting it for confirmation and moving up to test our 4H FF and 4H AC levels at 4050/4080.
My trading plan remains unchanged from yesterday. If price breaks through and holds,

Why Doesn’t a Token Price Rise After a Project Announces a Major Partnership?
In the cryptocurrency market, when a project announces a partnership with a well-known company, technology platform, or another blockchain project, the community is often filled with anticipation.
Some believe a partnership means user growth; others believe it can bring in more funding; still others directly infer that the token price is about to rise.
But sometimes the market gives a completely different answer.
After the news is announced, the price rises briefly and then falls back; some projects even see their to

October 27 Market Strategy: Mediation Hits Obstacles, Neither Side Yields, Oil Prices Remain Firm, Range-Bound Trading
Yesterday during the night session, we lightly tested longs at 2300-2310; the market has since validated the trade (intraday high: 2343).
Rate hikes are a “reactive” variable: the Fed knows full well that if the root cause of rising oil prices is “Iranian interference in the Strait,” rate hikes won’t solve the problem and could easily push the economy into recession. So it will act only if inflation genuinely feeds through—which means the macro trend lags the geopolitical one:

$CORE For Cool Coin to turn things around, one party—or other partner institutions—would have to inject funds to push up the price, bringing positive energy back into the market amid the prevailing pessimism.
Of course, this is no easy feat. The project has long been stuck in a prevailing mindset of “sell as soon as it pumps a little,” entrenching this vicious cycle. To completely turn things around, a large amount of capital would need to be injected continuously to stabilize the market and keep prices moving upward.
As with $LAB , only by continuously pushing up the price and increasing the

Bad Boy Watch: SPCX Update 10.27
Big Rocket closed at 146.90 in the US stock market on Monday, down 0.40%. It reached an intraday high of 150.24 and a low of 144.57.
On the daily chart, Big Rocket still appears to have support at the 60-day moving average, and its intraday low was above the previous low.
On the intraday chart, the stock price edged up after the US market opened, but was quickly hit by a wave of selling. The bulls retreated all the way to the 145 defensive line, then began to counterattack, steadily pushing the price up to the 150 high ground. The two sides then traded blows, a

Layer 2 Transaction Fees Are Very Low, So Why Should We Still Care About Data Availability?
In the Web3 world, one of the major advantages of Layer 2 networks is that they can reduce transaction costs and improve processing efficiency.
Compared with executing everything directly on the Ethereum mainnet, many Layer 2 networks can lower users’ transaction fees through off-chain execution, batch processing, and other methods.
But there is an easily overlooked issue:
Cheap transactions and fast processing do not automatically mean that users can safely withdraw their assets under all circumstances

Does higher TPS necessarily mean a stronger blockchain?
In the Web3 world, TPS (Transactions Per Second) is often used to measure a blockchain's performance.
When a network announces higher TPS, the community often assumes that it can handle more transactions and has a better chance of becoming the next generation of blockchain infrastructure.
But there is an easily overlooked issue:
High theoretical TPS does not mean high performance in real-world conditions, nor does it mean the network is necessarily better overall.
Why?
First, theoretical TPS may differ from actual throughput
