The total crypto market advanced over 2% to about $3.86 trillion in the last 24 hours, with major coins in the green. BTC was near $112,110, ETH around $4,124, SOL near $209, and XRP about $2.86 alongside 24-hour gains of roughly 2%–4% for these names. Market breadth improved as risk appetite steadied after last week’s volatility. Spot ETF flows have turned constructive again this month, offering a structural bid that has supported rebounds across large caps even as macro headlines remained choppy. Bitcoin leads the market higher Bitcoin edged higher after a turbulent stretch tied to macroeconomic data and options positioning, with recent dips below $111K following a US GDP revision that pressured risk assets before they subsequently stabilised. On the flows side, US spot BTC ETFs recorded multiple consecutive days of net inflows in mid‑September, reinforcing demand from institutions and contributing to the latest bounce. Analysts warn that BTC may need to fall toward $104,000 for correction fatigue to set in—otherwise, the sellers may remain in control. If Bitcoin breaks below a key level near $110,500, further downside toward $107,200 or even $103,500 is possible. On the upside, a daily close above $113,500 could reassert bullish dominance. Ethereum back above $4,100 Ether tracked BTC higher today. Ethereum’s price—around $4,100–$4,200—is under pressure, even though it showed modest gains in the past 24 hours. Analysts suggest ETH must reclaim $4,580 to trigger a breakout. While institutional demand is holding firm, retail flows remain weak. Some price forecasts — driven by macro tailwinds and technical setups — see ETH reaching $5,000+ by year-end. Solana Solana (SOL) traded near $209, up 3.6% in the past day but still nursing a steep 10.6% weekly loss. Solana outperformed earlier in September amid substantial accumulation signals, including Galaxy Digital-linked withdrawals totaling roughly $724M of SOL from exchanges, while some analysts argue demand from treasuries and potential ETF catalysts could extend the narrative. That optimism has been tempered near month‑end by a surge in open interest and weaker technicals that left SOL vulnerable to deeper pullbacks, even as developers press network‑level performance proposals. The net result is elevated two‑way risk in the short run around the $200 handle despite strong year‑to‑date execution and interest from institutions. XRP remains below $3 XRP held at $2.86, with 2.4% daily gains offset by a 2.3% weekly drop. XRP’s price stabilised after a volatile month shaped by its US ETF debut, where “sell‑the‑news” flows overshadowed record day‑one volume before the market found footing again. Technical updates through September point to consolidation under $3, with traders watching for breakouts while macro and ETF narratives sway flows across the complex. The near‑term setup remains range‑bound, but improved risk sentiment today helped the token participate in the broader bounce shown in the screenshots. Top gainers and losers Among altcoins, Zcash (ZEC) was the standout performer, jumping 20% to $65.09 in the past 24 hours. Pump.fun (PUMP) also rallied sharply, climbing 15% to $0.005855, while Story (IP) advanced 12% to $9.17. On the downside, Plasma (XPL) slumped 12% to $1.47, leading the laggards. MemeCore (M) fell 2.7% to $2.29, and XDC Network (XDC) edged lower by 0.95% to $0.072, underscoring selective weakness across smaller-cap names even as the wider market strengthened.
