XRP and Bitcoin hit a death cross on the daily time frame. This ominous signal wiped out previous XRP/BTC rallies and now threatens to turn the once-hopeful $2.5 zone into chart nostalgia.

The 50-day average of the popular alternative cryptocurrency XRP fell below the 200-day average, near 0.00002380 BTC, the same level that halted the summer rally, confirming a rare death cross against Bitcoin. The setup—the 200-day line recently turned negative for the first time since July, and the 100-day at 0.00002320 BTC is close to crossing—along with the ominous “death cross” label—forms the basis of the worrying headline.
When this same alignment happened in June 2025, XRP/BTC dropped from 0.00002280 BTC to 0.00002130 BTC before reaching a bottom, losing 6.4 percent in 16 days. Today’s structure is nearly identical: three failed attempts above 0.00002390, an RSI near 49, and no increase in spot volume despite the presence of green candles. Chart analysis suggests that if the pattern repeats, further declines could follow.
Uphold, a US-based company, has proposed offering crypto loans in XRP, ETH, USDC, and BTC. The rollout of services is planned, with Uphold revealing intentions to launch digital asset-backed loans in Florida in December. On October 28, Uphold announced it will begin providing these loan services in Florida, allowing users to borrow against XRP, Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), and USD Coin (USDC).
This initiative, highlighted by cryptocurrency analyst Chad Steingraber on X, is expected to expand the practical uses of major cryptocurrencies, potentially boosting their prices, and aligns with a renewed confidence in the crypto market.
