4.54% gain has settled the market cap at $2.28 trillion. Hence, all major crypto assets exhibit positive momentum, seeking to reclaim their recent highs. The brief green wave has hit the market, led by the largest assets: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Meanwhile, Chainlink (LINK) has recorded a steady 9.07% jump over the last 24 hours
LINK was trading on the downside, at around $8.08 in the morning hours. After the bullish pressure gained traction, the price climbed to a high of $8.91. At the time of writing, Chainlink traded at $8.87, with its daily trading volume dropping by 40.77%, reaching $379.12 million. The market has observed a liquidation of $1.11 million worth of LINK.
The price analysis of Chainlink reveals that if the bulls are ready to take up the market, the price could move higher to the $9.08 resistance. If it holds this range stable, it might climb toward $9.29 or higher. Upon the LINK’s momentum reversing, the price could drop and find support at the $8.66 level. Assuming the bears are powerful, they might push the price down, and it likely retraces below the $8.45 zone.
Chainlink Momentum Alert: Heading Down or Up?
The 4-hour technical analysis shows that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) line is above the signal line, and they have crossed below the zero line. This LINK crossover shows that the bullish momentum is building, with the overall bearish trend
Besides, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator, which is resting at -0.11, displays moderate selling pressure. With the negative value, the capital outflow outweighs the inflow. As the selling pressure is not extreme, some balance still exists in the Chainlink market.
LINK’s daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 60.50 indicates moderate to strong bullish momentum. As it is above the neutral level, the buyers are in control, leaving enough room for further upside. Moreover, the Bull Bear Power (BBP) reading of 0.51 suggests a mild bullish dominance. Notably, the upward momentum may build further, and the market is showing healthy buying strength.

This week, XRP recorded a $119.6 million capital inflow, setting the highest mark since 2025 and becoming a major beneficiary in the crypto market.

XRP drops to $1.33, with $3.32 million in ETF inflows still failing to reverse the downtrend; the key support to watch is $1.28
In April 2026, the XRP price pulled back to $1.33, down about 4%. Although there was capital inflow into Ripple-related products, selling pressure dominated the market, and increased trading volume signaled distribution. Declining liquidity further heightens volatility risk; watch the $1.33 support—if it breaks, prices will likely fall further. For a short-term rebound, it needs to break above $1.35; otherwise, it should remain in a weak range-bound consolidation.

Bitcoin is hovering around the $700,000 level; if oil prices fall below $100 or push toward $80,000
Bitcoin has recently been trading in a high-level range. The price rebounded from $67,000 to $70,900, driven by a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement. Market analysis suggests that weakness in oil prices—or easing inflation pressure—may support Bitcoin’s upside. If it breaks above $72,500, it could trigger short liquidations and push the price up to $80,000. However, instability in the Middle East and a rebound in oil prices could act as a drag. Volatility in the energy market will be a key factor influencing Bitcoin’s direction.
