Amid a new wave of economic tensions between the US and China, Sui (SUI), alongside other cryptocurrencies, has experienced a heavy price decline in the past few hours as investors move their capital into more stable assets. Despite this mayhem, prominent market analyst Ali Martinez is backing SUI’s bullish potential, projecting the altcoin to establish a new all-time high before 2025 ends. Related Reading: Bitmine Receives 23,823 Ethereum From BitGo As Institutional Accumulation Continues SUI’s Path To $7 In an X post on October 11, Ali Martinez shares an in-depth market analysis indicating that SUI may be on the verge of a major breakout. Notably, the daily SUI/USDT chart reveals a tightening price pattern, suggesting an impending significant price upswing provided the cryptocurrency can achieve a breakout from its current consolidation range. Based on Martinez’s analysis, SUI is forming a symmetrical triangle pattern that has been developing since early 2025. This structure is typically characterized by converging trendlines, representing lower highs and higher lows, which reflect a period of declining volatility preceding a decisive price move. According to the chart above, a confirmed breakout above the $3.59 (0.618 Fibonacci retracement level) would trigger a sharp bullish wave. The projected path, based on Fibonacci extension targets, places potential resistance points around $4.25 (0.786 Fibonacci extension), $5.28 (1.0 Fibonacci extension), and ultimately $6.97 (1.272 Fibonacci extension) – $7.00. Therefore, this move could represent a 100% market gain on current SUI prices. However, investors should also note that a failed breakout or rejection near the upper boundary could lead to renewed weakness. A dip below the $3.18 (0.5 Fibonacci) level would invalidate the bullish setup and expose SUI to potential declines toward $2.82 or even $2.44.

Meanwhile, daily trading volume has surged by 295%, signaling heightened market activity as traders react to the sharp selloff. On the broader time frame, SUI has lost 27.85% over the past week, extending its bearish momentum. The downturn in SUI mirrors the broader crypto market, which has reacted sharply to recent geopolitical developments. Markets tumbled after US President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 100% tariff on Chinese goods, a move framed as retaliation against China’s reported intentions to introduce sweeping export controls on a wide range of products. In the aftermath of the announcement, the global cryptocurrency market has dropped 9.75% in the past 24 hours, with total market cap now hovering around $3.75 trillion.

The Bitcoin price has experienced a notable decline of 6% from its all-time highs, leading to significant liquidation events that approached $200 million on Friday, while sparking renewed speculation about the cryptocurrency’s future trajectory. Analysts from The Bull Theory attribute the current slump to geopolitical developments, specifically President Donald Trump’s announcement of substantial tariffs and export controls on Chinese goods, particularly affecting key industrial and strategic materials. How Tariff Risks Are Impacting The Bitcoin Price The implications of these tariffs, according to the analysts, are multifaceted, introducing risks that could disrupt supply chains, accelerate inflation, and slow global trade. Related Reading: Why The Dogecoin Price Could Surge 3,690% To $9.8 This Bull Cycle Several factors are contributing to Bitcoin’s sell-off at this time. First, there is a notable risk rotation occurring, with investors seeking refuge in safer assets such as cash and gold. Second, the looming tariff risks could lead to rising inflation, potentially delaying anticipated rate cuts. Third, the unwinding of short leverage positions is impacting alternative cryptocurrencies and leveraged Bitcoin holdings, exacerbating the downward trend. Lastly, the uncertainty surrounding trade policies has created an “uncertainty premium,” prompting markets to demand a discount until a clearer picture emerges. Drawing parallels to past market behavior, the analysts recall that threats of tariffs in 2025 precipitated a significant crash in the Bitcoin price and other cryptocurrencies. These recent moves appear to serve as liquidity probes, testing the market’s resilience and flushing out weaker hands before a potential recovery phase. Analysts Predict Positive Outlook For BTC Looking ahead, The Bull Theory suggests market participants should be vigilant about BTC’s nearest key support zone, particularly around the $116,000 mark, where buyers have historically returned. Additionally, they assert that the reaction of policymakers will be crucial; if the Federal Reserve (Fed) signals a willingness to ease monetary policy, a sharp rebound could follow. Conversely, if Trump’s rhetoric regarding tariffs diminishes or becomes more defined, it is expected that confidence in the market may be restored. In the short term, analysts anticipate continued downside volatility with potential retests of support levels. However, the medium-term outlook suggests that savvy investors may begin accumulating Bitcoin as the prevailing narrative weakens. Long-term, with anticipated rate cuts and the historically strong performance of markets in the fourth quarter, the prospects for the Bitcoin price appear promising. As liquidity returns and market momentum builds, the path forward for Bitcoin often trends upward. BTC At $130,000 By Month-End? Market expert Timothy Peterson has also weighed in, noting that half of Bitcoin’s gains for October may have already been realized, according to artificial intelligence (AI) simulations. Related Reading: Bitcoin Who? XRP Leads Coinbase Search Charts, Beating The Giants The analysis presented earlier this week a 50% chance that the Bitcoin price will finish the month above $140,000, and a 43% probability it would end below $136,000. However, following the recent Bitcoin price drop, the updated AI forecast suggests an expected month-end value of around $130,000, representing an 11% increase from the current price of approximately $117,300. Despite this, there is now an 18% chance that ‘Uptober’ could conclude negatively, adding another layer of uncertainty to the market’s outlook. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com

Crypto analyst Levi Rietveld has claimed that a $400 trillion XRP revolution is underway, driven by Ripple’s expanding efforts in Real-World Assets (RWA) tokenization. With major partnerships reportedly forming between Ripple and some of the largest players in the financial sector, XRP’s role in bringing traditional assets onto the blockchain is gaining significant attention across the industry. XRP To Lead The $400 Trillion Tokenization Wave According to Rietveld, XRP is not just another digital asset but a cornerstone of a financial revolution worth more than $400 trillion. In a recent post on X social media, the analyst explained that XRP is breaking into a market defined by RWA tokenization—an emerging industry that could reshape how global value is exchanged, sold, and verified. Related Reading: Investment CEO Highlights Why Ripple’s XRP Has The Strongest Utility In The Industry Rietveld emphasized that some of the world’s most influential institutions are now aligning with Ripple to pursue this tokenization vision. He mentioned that BlackRock, VanEck, and Securitize have reportedly joined forces with Ripple to develop frameworks for RWA tokenization, which redefine asset management and exchange. Unlike Bitcoin, which lacks the Layer 2 flexibility and throughput needed for RWA settlements, Rietveld explains that the XRP Ledger (XRPL) boasts the scalability and speed required for global financial operations. He mentioned that XRPL can execute 40,000 transactions per second—a level of performance that makes it ideal for handling the vast volume of tokenized asset transactions expected to dominate the future of finance. XRPL’s architecture also enables instant settlements and interoperability, qualities that are essential for financial entities managing trillions in global assets. If the tokenization trend continues at its current trajectory, Rietveld suggests that the market could eventually reach a $400 trillion valuation. Additionally, XRP could play a pivotal role in bridging the gap between traditional markets and blockchain infrastructure. Moreover, the cryptocurrency‘s utility could evolve beyond a payment asset into a core component of global financial infrastructure. SWIFT’s ISO 20022 Shift To Fuel Another XRP Revolution Another key development that could shape XRP’s future comes from the global payments network, SWIFT. According to the team behind BeLaunch, a premier decentralized launchpad, SWIFT will retire its legacy MT messaging system and fully adopt ISO 20022 on November 22, 2025. This change is set to enhance how banks and financial institutions communicate, enabling better data exchange, stronger security, and faster automation across global transactions. Related Reading: XRP Is Already Penetrating SWIFT’s Network Through Multiple Entry Points, Expert Highlights How The XRP Ledger is already compliant with ISO 20022, giving it a potential advantage in future banking integrations. This compatibility means XRP can easily fit into systems aligned with the new global messaging framework. However, as BeLaunch noted, readiness does not equal adoption. XRP must still navigate challenges related to regulation, liquidity, and competition from stablecoins and private blockchain networks. Even so, the ISO 20022 transition represents an important step toward global financial interoperability—the very principle on which Ripple has built its ecosystem.

Amid the recent market volatility, Solana (SOL) has lost a crucial area for the first time in over a week, leading some analysts to forecast a potential drop toward the $200 support and below in the coming days. Related Reading: Major Event Management Platform Raises $2M To Expand Stablecoin Payments Across Entertainment Industry Solana Pullback Eyes $200 Retest Solana fell from the $225 area and recorded a 6.6% intraday retrace below the $210 level for the first time in two weeks. Notably, the cryptocurrency has been trading within the $210-$245 levels over the past month, briefly losing this range during the late September pullback. As “Uptober” arrived and the overall crypto market recovered, the altcoin bounced from the recent lows, reclaiming the mid-zone of its local price range. Over the past week, SOL traded within the $220-$235 area, retesting both the upper and lower boundaries of this zone throughout this week’s volatile market performance. Multiple market watchers warned that losing $215-$220 area could determine whether SOL’s short-term rally was at risk. On Friday morning, the altcoin lost this crucial zone, hitting a one-week low of $207. Analyst Crypto Batman forecasted that Solana would likely head lower before bouncing, highlighting two key support areas. He suggested that the altcoin’ could retrace deeper into its Bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG), between $210-$220, which previously served as a key resistance level. However, if the price continues to fall, he pointed out that a retest of SOL’s two-month ascending trendline, currently around the $200 mark, would be possible. This trendline was tested as support in late September, when the altcoin fell to the $190 level. Similarly, Crypto analyst Man of Bitcoin had affirmed that holding the $216 level was crucial to preserve a bullish scenario in which the cryptocurrency rallied toward the $270 without major pullbacks. The analyst cautioned that losing this area would invalidate the bullish setup and likely push the price down toward the local range lows, potentially risking a drop to the $200 barrier. SOL’s Make-Or-Break Level Meanwhile, market watcher Follis recently stated that SOL has “one of the cleanest” high timeframe charts in the market. He noted that Solana’s 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) indicator in the daily chart holds “the key.” Notably, this indicator, currently sitting around the $200 area, has been tested as support and bounced from each time the cryptocurrency has failed to break a major resistance level since August. Based on its recent performance, if the altcoin holding the EMA100 on the daily timeframe could see a rebound and target the range highs. On the contrary, if this level is lost, the cryptocurrency risks falling to the September lows.
