This Friday, we examine Ethereum, Ripple, Cardano, Binance Coin, and Hyperliquid in greater detail.

Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum fell 3% this week as the price curved down once it touched $2,500. The current support is found at $2,400 and may soon be tested, considering that momentum has turned somewhat bearish and a pullback is ongoing.

As long as the price can hold above $2,400, ETH has a good chance to make higher highs. However, any weakness at this key level could put sellers back in charge as they seek to send this cryptocurrency lower.

Looking ahead, Ethereum has to consolidate around existing levels if it wants to maintain its rally. The challenge is that buy volume is declining, and bulls are showing signs of exhaustion. This makes a deeper correction more likely if nothing changes.

Ripple (XRP)

XRP had a bad week after the price crashed 9%. This follows sellers rejecting a breakout at the $1.6 resistance. With bulls on the defensive, they have retreated at the $1.3 support level.

A test of the key support appears imminent based on the current price action. If it holds, then this cryptocurrency can book a higher low and encourage buyers to return for another go at $1.6.

Looking ahead, XRP is at a key turning point. The $1.3 level can make or break the momentum that drove the price up 60% in less than a week in late August.

Cardano (ADA)

ADA is similar to XRP as it also failed to clear the resistance at $0.23. This is bad news for bulls, and the price closed 9% lower this week. With bullish momentum under threat, buyers will struggle to regain control here.

If nothing changes, then Cardano will have no other choice but to fall below $0.20 and maybe even re-test the key support at $0.15. While a consolidation period would be normal, it could give sellers a chance to return in force.

Looking ahead, ADA needs to find renewed interest from buyers if it wants to escape its current range between $0.23 and $0.15. Anything less would see bears take control again.

Binance Coin (BNB)

Binance Coin dropped a modest 2% this week after sellers reversed the price action around $780. Since then, BNB has been pulling back, and a test of support at $690 appears likely in the coming days.

Ideally, this cryptocurrency will hold above $690 if buyers want to maintain their advantage and momentum. Any price below this key level will see it turn into a resistance, which could push BNB much lower.

Looking ahead, even if the ongoing pullback turns into a more significant correction, this cryptocurrency will remain bullish as long as it can secure a higher low. That includes any price above $580, which is the next key support level.

Hype (HYPE)

Hyperliquid made a new record price at almost $90 last week. However, this week, the price pulled back and closed 10% lower. This is unfortunate, and if the current weekly bearish engulfing candle remains as it is, that will be a bad signal for the market.

Taken together, this suggests a bearish bias, at least in the short term, with key support at $76 and $70. Even so, as long as the price can stay above $70, the overall uptrend channel will remain intact.

Looking ahead, HYPE has continued to impress in 2026 despite any volatility, with consistently higher highs. A test of the $100 psychological level seems likely before any significant selling returns.
