BTC resistance: Analysts warn against chasing Bitcoin above $77,700 due to narrow Bollinger Bands and a "fragile" market structure.

Evernorth CEO reveals what separates XRP from becoming main banking OS Despite XRP’s dominance in the markets of Japan and South Korea, the ecosystem still lacks a “final piece” for full global integration with traditional finance (TradFi). This was stated by Evernorth CEO Ashish Birla in an exclusive interview with CoinPost. According to Birla, the era in which an asset’s success is measured solely by retail demand is over. Today, institutions (pension funds and insurance companies) require not just access to XRP but fiduciary standards comparable to the bond market. Yes, XRP has established itself as a primary settlement asset in Asia due to clear regulation. However, for global scale, this experience must be transferred to Western markets through regulated channels.

Instead, they use “proxies” — publicly regulated companies such as Evernorth, which take on compliance risks and provide deep liquidity within the XRP ecosystem . Advertisement According to Evernorth’s position, the final stage will be the mass deployment of allocation platforms. Institutional capital is “lazy” and disciplined. It requires automated reporting and risk management tools that operate within the legal framework of public companies. The technology arrived years ago. Regulation has now caught up. What remains is capital, which demands accountability and transparency. Evernorth aims to fill this gap by acting as a trust layer between decentralized systems and traditional capital, Birla concluded. Advertisement Why Dogecoin (DOGE) chart looks like powder keg ahead of 4/20 Dogecoin (DOGE) , the eighth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, is showing signs of critical price compression just six days before the community’s annual event — Doge Day (April 20). On the DOGE/USDT chart by TradingView , a classic consolidation pattern has formed. The price is currently squeezed within a narrow range between $0.089 (strong support) and the psychological resistance at $0.10. Bollinger Bands on the daily time frame have narrowed to their lowest levels since the start of the year. Historically, such compression has preceded impulsive moves of 15-20%. DOGE/USDT daily price chart with Bollinger Bands, Source: TradingView Current Dogecoin price is at $0.094 (+3.7% over 24 hours). The main driver of current attention is not only the calendar date of April 20 but also real integrations, particularly X Money. Two scenarios for the next 144 hours: Bullish: Breakout and consolidation above $0.10 opens a direct path to the targets of $0.12 and $0.15 (peak levels of 2025) by the morning of April 20. Conservative: If the $0.10 resistance holds, DOGE will continue trading within the range until the end of the month, ignoring event-driven hype. Stop play at $77,700: Why Bitcoin is expected to reverse Bitcoin (BTC) delivered an impressive rally to a four-week high above $74,400, but technical indicators and a surge in leveraged positions are forcing professionals to act with caution. The key signal of the day: do not chase the rally above $77,700. According to the current BTC/USDT chart, the price is approaching the middle Bollinger Band on the weekly time frame. The $77,723 level acts as critical resistance. Historically, interaction with this zone, combined with current volatility compression, often precedes a sharp pullback or transition into a prolonged sideways range for Bitcoin . Attempting to buy a breakout above this level now appears mathematically unjustified due to the high risk of a false move. Analyst Maartunn from CryptoQuant reports unprecedented exchange activity, making the current market structure “fragile.” Despite the strong price impulse, funding rates remain negative. This indicates the market is overloaded with short positions, while spot demand continues to support price, triggering cascading liquidations of bears. BTC open interest and price average, Source: Maartunn from CryptoQuant Maartunn intends to open a short, but the setup remains unclear. Either negative funding or the presence of a spot buyer force need to change. A breakout above $77,700 per BTC without prior reduction in open interest could lead to a final upward squeeze followed by a deep correction. Crypto Market Outlook: Bitcoin at highs, Ethereum leading As of April 14, 2026, the cryptocurrency market is showing a confident recovery. Bitcoin has established itself above $70,000, supported by inflows of institutional capital and unexpectedly positive macro data from the United States. The slowdown in producer inflation (PPI) has reduced pressure on risk assets, creating an ideal backdrop for a local rally. Key developments: U.S. producer inflation report (March PPI): The data came in significantly better than forecasts. The monthly figure reached +0.5% (vs. +1.1% expected), while the annual rate stood at +4% (vs. +4.6% forecast). The easing of inflationary pressure from producers gives the Federal Reserve room to maneuver and boosts investor appetite for crypto assets. Bitcoin (BTC): Following the PPI release, BTC on Binance reached $74,418 (+5% over 24 hours). The intraday high hit $74,900. The move is also supported by progress in geopolitics and a pullback in oil prices below $100. Deutsche Börse deal: The German giant acquired a 1.5% stake in crypto exchange Kraken for $200 million. This is direct evidence of deep TradFi integration into the crypto sector, effectively turning exchanges into full-fledged financial institutions. Altcoin performance: Ethereum (ETH) led gains among the top assets, rising 7.8% to reach $2,370. You Might Also Like Tue, 04/14/2026 - 00:01 Will Shiba Inu (SHIB) Return to Bottom Again?
