Simply Put

• Myriad predicts that XRP will soar to a record price of $4, not drop back down to $2.
• The situation appears to flip, suggesting that current outcomes may decline before Bitcoin starts gaining an edge.
• Those looking forward to airdrops anticipate that Opensea tokens will make their way to wallets by December.

As potential ETF approvals for XRP, Solana, and other altcoins approach, traders are closely monitoring how prices might rise or fall.

Given the ongoing uncertainty, some odds have fluctuated, especially on the Myriad trading platform.

Let’s explore what’s heating up in the market this week.

Ripple-linked assets, particularly XRP, have never actually hit $3.65, but Myriad’s forecasters believe a rise to $4 is likely before any dip to $2 occurs.

Currently, there’s a 60% chance of reaching $4, as of Thursday morning. These odds seemed stable for most of the week, although they’ve experienced some ups and downs since the market’s inception.

Interestingly, not long ago, the outlook was quite the opposite, with around 62% of predictions leaning towards a bearish move to $2.

However, recent headlines have been favorable for XRP. For instance, an ETF providing exposure to XRP has recently been launched, allowing traditional investors to access it. Plus, there may be more XRP ETFs in the pipeline, according to some analysts.

Even a modest price increase of 3.6% last month has led to heightened expectations for reaching $4, with assets trading at around $3.12.

For XRP holders, a jump to $4 translates to a 28% profit, but for those more optimistic about the movement, gains could reach nearly 40%.

What’s Next? Decisions on the pending XRP ETF applications are anticipated by mid-October.

BTC Dominance: Move to 63% or Drop to 53%?

Is Alt season on the horizon? Many predictors are leaning towards a scenario where Bitcoin’s dominance may decrease, rather than spike to 63% and instead move towards 53%.

Bitcoin’s dominance reflects its portion of the total cryptocurrency market value. If this percentage declines as predicted, it suggests BTC’s market cap is shrinking relative to the overall crypto landscape, which often signals a rise in altcoins.

As of Thursday morning, indications favor a decline to 53%, showing a 6% shift in the last 24 hours. This significant move followed the SEC’s introduction of new listing requirements for crypto ETFs, setting expectations for more assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum to become available for trading.

However, just two weeks ago, predictions favored an increase in dominance, so it seems there might be more fluctuations ahead.

What’s Next? Eric Bulknath, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, suggests that around 12-15 tokens could soon be available for investment through newly announced ETFs.

Will Opensea Release Tokens by December?

The popular NFT marketplace plans to evolve into a broader token trading platform, and Opensea will introduce its own native tokens—though the timeline remains uncertain.

In various markets, predictors are speculating whether tokens will arrive before December. So far, the likelihood looks positive, with expectations of an early launch.

Interestingly, these odds were about 12% higher than just the day before, when it seemed nearly 50-50.

Official details on the rollout are yet to be unveiled, although the company has mentioned preparations for a token name coming in “Early October” to coincide with the final phases of pre-token rewards.

But how long might this final stage be? Speculation suggests traders shouldn’t expect it to happen as quickly as they might hope.

The Opensea token was initially announced in February, aimed at incentivizing both current and historic traders on the platform, but there have been scant updates since then.

What’s Next? Further developments on Opensea’s tokenomics are expected in early October.
