On-chain indicators for Solana (SOL) are growing strongly, reflecting the real demand behind the recent recovery.
Over the past week, the number of active addresses has increased by 56%, reaching 27.1 million, while the total weekly transactions surpassed 515 million, indicating a stable level of network utilization. This scale is particularly important as price strength often correlates with ongoing participation from the user community.

Toncoin (TON) faced resistance at the level $1.70 over the past month. The strong rise of many altcoins in the first week of January was primarily driven by Bitcoin (BTC) breaking the $90,000 mark at that time.
Although Bitcoin has successfully reclaimed the important support area at $94,500, Toncoin has not recorded many growth signals in the past week, as the price decreased slightly by 1.29%.

Zcash (ZEC) has just experienced a week of volatility, reflecting structural weakness following instability in the leadership team. During this period, the price of ZEC fell sharply from a local peak of $528 to below $400, reflecting strong selling pressure from the market.
At the time of the update, ZEC is trading around $400, down slightly 1.21% compared to the previous day. Notably, this weakening phase opens up attractive buying opportunities for large investors (whales).

In the past week, major investors (whales) have significantly increased accumulation activities, adding over 50 million Ripple (XRP) to their portfolios amid sideways price movement. This move reflects strategic proactivity, not a knee-jerk reaction to market fluctuations.
Rather than waiting for confirmation signals, whales have intensified buying in key demand areas, often indicating a forecast for increased volatility. Notably, the accumulation process is steady, with no unusual spikes like those seen in short-term speculation, reflecting the absorption of supply into the hands of more stable investors. However, whale activity has not yet created an immediate impact on the price but is gradually restructuring the market state.

The recent price recovery of Bitcoin is likely just a short-term technical bounce, rather than the beginning of a sustainable upward trend, as demand in the market remains weak, according to on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant.
In a report released on Friday, CryptoQuant stated that Bitcoin has increased by about 21% since November 21, but this is likely just a "bounce in the bear market" (bear market rally). Although some indicators show a slight improvement in demand conditions, the overall picture is still not convincing.

Bitcoin's (BTC) rally towards the $100,000 threshold has encountered strong resistance, as spot trading demand begins to decline just as selling pressure increases. After establishing a local peak near $98,000 on Wednesday, BTC has continuously adjusted in the next two sessions and is trading around $95,000 at the moment.
Spot demand weakens at local peak levels
This correction occurs simultaneously with the reversal of the Bitcoin Premium index on Coinbase. This index briefly turned positive near local peak levels, reflecting late buying activity in the spot market, but the price could not break higher, indicating that buying power from large investors has been exhausted.

While leading privacy cryptocurrencies like Monero (XMR), Zcash (ZEC), and Dash (DASH) have reached market capitalizations in the billions with impressive growths, capital is currently showing signs of shifting towards smaller-cap privacy coins.
Last January recorded outstanding accumulation activity in several mid-cap and low-cap altcoins. This trend partly reflects the positioning strategy of large investors (whales) in anticipation that the investment trend in privacy coins will continue to attract strong capital flows in 2026.

XRP price could reach the 2.80 USD mark by the end of the month, based on a series of positive technical signals across multiple timeframes.
Breakout from descending wedge: Target 2.70 USD
Based on the two-day chart, XRP confirmed a breakout from the descending wedge pattern on January 1st. In technical analysis, a descending wedge is a classic bullish signal, characterized by two downward-sloping converging trendlines, reflecting weakening selling pressure in both momentum and volume. Typically, when sellers can no longer sustain pressure, an upward trend emerges as buyers take control.

BNB is currently trading in a narrow range around the 900 USD support level as of Friday's writing, following a pullback from the previous session's high of 954 USD. Notably, the appeal of the exchange's native token appears to be weakening, reflecting cautious sentiment as investors quickly take profits after the recent rally.

Bitcoin (BTC) price remains stable around $95,500 after three consecutive strong gains totaling 8%, causing the market to witness $465 million in BTC futures short positions being liquidated. However, according to web search data and derivatives information, retail investors remain cautious and are not rushing to enter the market. In particular, Bitcoin's pullback from $97,900 has further weakened investor sentiment.

Hedera (HBAR) is currently trading around the $0.127 level during Wednesday's session, approaching a key resistance zone. If the price convincingly breaks above this level, the market could witness a new uptrend in the near term. Notably, institutional demand continues to rise, as HBAR spot ETFs recorded three consecutive days of net inflows this week. At the same time, positive signals from on-chain data and derivatives markets further strengthen the expectation that HBAR is poised to extend its upward trend.

Altcoins such as Dash (DASH), Story (IP), and Optimism (OP) have become the focal point, leading the broader crypto market's recovery over the past 24 hours. Although they have maintained the gains established on Tuesday, these assets began showing signs of slowing on Wednesday, raising concerns about a potential short-term correction.
The altcoin breakout coincided with Bitcoin (BTC) surging past the $95,000 mark, following the U.S. release of December Consumer Price Index (CPI) data at 2.7%, with core CPI at 2.6% — slightly below market expectations. This development indicates that inflationary pressure is showing signs of cooling, thereby reducing the Federal Reserve's urgency to quickly ease monetary policy.

Solana (SOL) is attracting strong attention from traders as its price structure is gradually tightening just below a key resistance level. After months of accumulation, analysts believe SOL may be preparing for a decisive trend breakout.
Bullish sentiment is returning to SOL
Since November 14, 2025, Solana has maintained a consolidation phase within a narrow price range of $120 to $145, while forming a 'cup and handle' pattern on the daily chart. On larger timeframes, this pattern is typically seen as a continuation signal, reflecting a slow accumulation phase followed by a controlled pullback to compress volatility before entering a breakout phase.

The meme coin market is currently sending mixed signals. Although the entire sector declined by over 5% last week, prices rose by about 5% in just the past 24 hours, signaling renewed interest. In this context, three standout names deserve attention, each with its own distinct story.
One meme coin rising despite selling pressure from whales, one being heavily accumulated during a correction phase, and another seeing strong trading volume around a key technical level.

After the previous bullish momentum weakened and the price adjusted down to a low of $2.03, RENDER staged an impressive recovery, surging 22% from the low of $2.2 to a two-month high of $2.7, surpassing the 20-day, 50-day, and 100-day EMAs.
As of the time of this article, RENDER's price has slightly adjusted, trading around $2.47, up 8.2% from the previous day. Notably, trading volume surged 230% to $242 million USD, reflecting renewed strong market interest.

XRP has experienced a sharp decline since its January 6 peak, losing nearly 15% of its value in just six days. Key support levels have been broken one after another, as selling pressure remains dominant. However, beneath this wave of selling, an unusual development has emerged: long-term, committed investors are increasing their buying at a pace unseen since last September.
Key price zones of XRP are still being maintained, and demand is quietly accumulating under downward pressure. This creates a rare divergence between price action and on-chain behavior.

BNB Chain has quickly taken the lead among competing blockchains in revenue generation. The first ten days of the new year have just concluded, a period long enough to identify standout blockchains leading the market in key areas. Network revenue is one of the critical indicators reflecting development, and BNB Chain is currently dominating decisively. The chain's daily revenue has, for the first time in two months, surpassed the $1.3 million threshold.

Bitcoin may break out in the short term before entering a final cycle phase full of risks, as on-chain data shows rising price momentum amid weakening liquidity — a signal often associated with a bear market risk heading toward 2026, according to analyst Willy Woo.
Sharing on the X platform on January 11, 2026, Woo presented a 'dual perspective': optimistic in the short term but cautious for the medium and long term. He wrote: 'I'm optimistic about BTC from late January into February, but currently remain bearish for 2026,' while emphasizing this view is data-driven and subject to change.

According to on-chain analyst Willy Woo, Bitcoin's price is approaching a potential short-term recovery, as macroeconomic policy moves in the U.S. could accelerate the adoption of digital currencies.
Woo's analytical models show that investment flows into Bitcoin hit bottom on December 24, 2025, and have been growing steadily since. Although the 2026 outlook remains cautious due to declining market liquidity, short-term factors are opening up price appreciation opportunities in the coming weeks.
