XRP Losses ETF Appeal to Bitcoin in $1.4 Billion Week; Binance Whale Bags Billions of SHIB Amid Asteroid Shiba Surge; Dogecoin Price Turns Green for Doge Day - ...
Bitcoin dominated weekly flows, absorbing roughly $1.116 billion and holding above $76,000 as institutional ETF demand concentrates market liquidity in BTC. XRP saw the worst outflows among major assets (~$56.2m weekly; $37.2m monthly), reflecting a rotation away from some altcoins. Binance whale activity shows large SHIB withdrawals (address holding ~38.2 billion SHIB) into cold storage amid an unrelated Asteroid Shiba pump narrative. Dogecoin is consolidating around $0.094–$0.097; a sustained break above $0.097 could trigger a significant rally toward prior $0.25 levels per historical analogies. Macro and risk factors — a $7.9 billion options expiry on April 24, KelpDAO exploit and Strait of Hormuz tensions — add volatility, though MicroStrategy’s big buy (34,164 BTC, $2.54bn) underscores continued institutional accumulation. Overall, flows favor BTC while select altcoins face dispersion of capital and idiosyncratic risks.
