60% whale outflows vs rising leverage - XRP at a crossroads?

Tech　　60% whale outflows vs rising leverage – XRP at a crossroads？　　AMBCrypto previously reported that South Korea‘s K Bank, a banking partner of Upbit, has partnered with Ripple for a blockchain-based global remittance proof of concept. The project will test overseas transfers using Ripple’s network, adding to XRPs already peculiar setup.　　XRP 1M outflows rise again　　On Binance, wallets moving more than 1 million XRP made up nearly 60% of daily outflow value on 26 April.　　Source: Cryptoquant　　This was close to the 66% peak seen on 28 March. This group has been dominating Binance outflows at around 56.4%, while the 100K-1M XRP group was at 19.3%.　　Source: Cryptoquant　　Coinbase has been showing a similar (but less aggressive) pattern. In fact, above-1M XRP outflows reached around 33% twice in April, on 17 and 27 April.　　The press time reading was high too, at about 27.3%.　　You cant prove accumulation with just with this, but large wallets are moving XRP away from exchanges again. So, this reduces available spot supply while the price stays weak.　　Derivatives traders are here to stay though!Source: TradingView　　XRP‘s price chart hasn’t yet confirmed the whale outflow signal. XRP closed near $1.3566, down 1.72% on the day. This fall came after an intraday high of $1.4065.　　The tokens

Samsung Q1 profit beats expectations, starts HBM4 production for Nvidia

Tech　　Samsung Q1 profit beats expectations, starts HBM4 production for Nvidia　　Samsung Electronics reported Q1 net profit of 47.1T won, beating expectations on the strength of its chip division and the start of HBM4 mass production for NVIDIAs platform. The Polymarket contract on NVIDIA being the largest company by market cap on June 30 sits at 85.5% YES, down from 92% a day ago.　　The April 30 market holds at 99.9% YES, effectively pricing NVIDIA‘s near-term position as a lock. The June 30 market tells a different story: a drop from 92% to 85.5% YES in 24 hours. That 10-point decline between late May and June pricing suggests traders see real risk over the longer window, even with Samsung’s positive earnings in hand.　　Trading volume for the June market is thin: $8,602 in actual USDC against a face value of $9,377/day. The largest single move was a 1-point spike. Low liquidity here means a relatively small position could move the price. Traders appear to be factoring in geopolitical risk, particularly the U.S.-Iran conflict and its potential effects on semiconductor supply chains.　　Samsung beginning HBM4 production for NVIDIA points to strong chip demand ahead, but the market is pricing in external threats.

EUR/JPY holds losses near 187.00 ahead of ECB policy decision

Finance　　EUR/JPY holds losses near 187.00 ahead of ECB policy decision　　EUR/JPY edges lower after four days of gains, trading around 187.20 during the Asian hours on Thursday. The currency cross depreciates as the risk-sensitive Euro (EUR) struggles amid increased risk aversion, which could be attributed to the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.　　US President Donald Trump said the naval blockade on Iran will continue until a nuclear deal is secured, dismissing calls to reopen key routes and favoring economic pressure over military action. Iran warned of retaliation, accusing Washington of using coercion and destabilization tactics to force compliance.　　The European Central Bank (ECB) is widely expected to leave interest rates unchanged on Thursday, in line with many global peers this week, while signaling that a rate hike, possibly as early as June, may be necessary to counter an energy-driven surge in consumer prices.　　Any delay in tightening is likely to be brief, with investors anticipating a move in June followed by two additional hikes later this year, as fading prospects for peace in Iran keep oil prices elevated and nearing levels outlined in the ECBs “adverse” scenario, according to Reuters.　　Meanwhile, downside pressure on EUR/JPY may be limited as the Japanese Yen (JPY) remains

NEAR Price Prediction: $1.50 Target Within 14 Days as Smart Money Accumulates

NEAR Protocol has carved out a stable base around $1.36, creating conditions that typically precede measured upward moves. The price action shows resilience above the $1.32 support level while maintaining distance from both extreme overbought and oversold territory. This middle-ground positioning often signals that major players are quietly building positions without triggering retail FOMO or panic selling.　　The momentum picture tells a story of reset rather than collapse. While the MACD sits in positive territory at 0.0196, the histogram has flattened to zero, indicating that previous selling waves have run their course. Combined with compressed daily volatility around $0.05, this setup mirrors patterns that have historically preceded breakouts in both NEAR and similar infrastructure tokens.　　Volume Patterns Reveal Institutional Interest　　The $7.18 million spot volume on Binance reflects selective rather than broad-based trading, with the most telling signal coming from position distribution across trader types. Retail traders maintain a defensive stance with only 46.7% holding long positions, yet top traders—typically institutional players and sophisticated funds—have flipped to 52.4% long positioning.　　This divergence between retail pessimism and institutional optimism creates an ideal setup for upward price movement. The negative funding rate of -0.0017% means short sellers are paying premiums to maintain bearish bets, while the

Samsung profit surges eight-fold on AI demand, beating estimates

Samsungs profit surged over eight-fold on AI-driven demand, beating estimates. The Polymarket contract on NVIDIA being the largest company by market cap on June 30 sits at 85.5% YES, down from 92% yesterday.　　The NVIDIA market for April 30 is locked at 99.9% YES. The June 30 market, by contrast, has pulled back, with the term structure dropping steeply from 95.8% on May 31 to 85.5% on June 30. That gap suggests traders see real risk that NVIDIA loses its lead sometime in the middle of the year, likely tied to AI supply chain shifts.　　Combined 24-hour volume for the June market is $137,487 in face value but only $34,409 in actual USDC, which points to speculative positioning rather than high-conviction bets. Liquidity is decent: it takes $13,111 to move the price 5 points. The largest recent move was a 1-point spike, suggesting traders are waiting for harder signals before committing.　　Samsung‘s results confirm that AI chip demand remains strong, which matters directly for NVIDIA’s revenue trajectory. The term structure decline from May to June implies traders are pricing in possible headwinds like geopolitical disruptions to semiconductor supply chains. At 85.5%, a YES share pays $1 if NVIDIA leads by June 30, a

XLM Price Prediction: Sideways Grind Sets Up $0.13 Test by June

Stellar remains trapped in a narrow trading range around $0.16, showing classic signs of a market losing momentum. The token sits uncomfortably close to key support levels while struggling to generate any sustained buying interest. This sideways action often precedes more directional moves, and the current setup suggests bears may eventually take control.　　The price compression between $0.15 and $0.18 has been grinding on for weeks, with each attempt at upside momentum quickly fading. When markets consolidate this tightly near support, the eventual breakout direction becomes critical for determining the next major move.　　Market Sentiment Turns Cautious　　Analysts at Blockchain.news note that XLMs position below key moving averages signals underlying weakness in the broader trend. The lack of strong buying volume during recent bounce attempts confirms that institutional interest remains limited at current levels.　　Hourly candlesticks (about 96 bars), same endpoint as our cryptocurrency price pages. Numbers below refresh from 1-minute klines.　　Full XLM price, calculator & analysis　　Retail sentiment appears increasingly bearish as the token fails to reclaim higher ground. Without fresh catalysts or improved market conditions, XLM faces headwinds that could pressure prices lower in the coming weeks.　　Near-Term Price Trajectory　　The most likely scenario sees XLM attempting one more push toward the $0.19 resistance zone

APT Price Prediction: $2.10 Breakout Imminent as 41% Technical Gap Creates Explosive Setup

The Technical Powder Keg　　APT sits in a dangerous no-man‘s land at $1.00, trading 41% below its 200-day moving average of $1.70. This isn’t just another dip – it‘s a technical chasm that creates explosive potential in either direction. The recent 4.48% surge brought renewed attention, but the real story lies in what’s happening beneath the surface.　　The momentum picture tells a tale of building pressure. Price action has compressed between the $0.93 support floor and $1.05 resistance ceiling, creating the kind of coiled spring setup that precedes major moves. With volatility contracting and volume patterns shifting, institutional players appear to be positioning for something significant.　　Smart money positioning reveals the battlefield dynamics that retail traders miss. The derivatives market shows neutral funding rates, indicating no excessive leverage that could trigger violent liquidation cascades. Meanwhile, whale accumulation patterns suggest patient capital is building positions ahead of what analysts at Blockchain.news see as a potential breakout scenario.　　The Path to $2.10　　Breaking above $1.05 resistance unlocks the path toward the 200-day moving average at $1.70, which becomes the critical battleground for any sustained recovery. Success there opens clean air to the $2.10-$2.43 zone where multiple technical levels converge.　　The bullish thesis rests on APT‘s ability to reclaim
