XRP/BTC Pair Says Institutions Are Ready for XRP, $ Trillions Waiting to Flow

XRP is demonstrating key technical strength against Bitcoin. The recent weekly chart from crypto analyst Dark Defender (@DefendDark) highlights multiple signals pointing to potential upside. Institutions appear prepared, while technical indicators suggest momentum is aligning for a significant move.

Elliott Waves Intact

The chart shows Elliott Wave patterns remain intact. The digital asset has completed the first four waves of this pattern and is on the verge of the final push. The asset began forming this pattern in May 2024. Wave 3, which is always the largest, pushed XRP up by 500% in late 2024. The asset then went into an extended consolidation, forming Wave 4.

The analyst also highlights a smaller-scale multi-wave pattern. This pattern formed during XRP’s extended consolidation in 2025. The first wave was a decline from January highs, but the second wave sent the asset to a new peak in July.

Wave C was another prolonged decline, but Wave D on this pattern coincides with Wave 5 on the larger Elliott Wave sequence. This positioning suggests the asset could surge rapidly once the next wave begins.

RSI Signals and Ichimoku Cloud Support

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) confirms readiness. Both the RSI line and the moving average converge near 44, suggesting momentum is set to increase. Dark Defender highlights this point directly, labeling it “Incoming!” on the chart. Historically, this level has marked the end of consolidation periods, making it a key technical confirmation for institutional participation.

XRP’s weekly price action has cleared the Ichimoku cloud, signaling strength. The cloud shows support between 0.00002078 BTC and 0.00002487 BTC, acting as a floor for price consolidation. The analyst expects XRP to bounce from here and target new highs.

Institutional Activity and Outlook for XRP

The chart and accompanying commentary suggest that institutions are entering the market. Dark Defender states, “Institutions are ready for XRP.”

Combined with RSI and Ichimoku signals, this indicates that larger market participants may be preparing significant allocations. The alignment of technical indicators and market structure suggests potential inflows of substantial capital.

The technical setup points to an upcoming breakout. Multiple bullish patterns have converged to suggest higher prices. The current support levels provide stability, while Wave 5 projections indicate strong upside potential. XRP’s structure is solid, and it could experience a rapid surge sooner than many expect.

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Forward Industries, the largest publicly traded Solana treasury company, has filed a $4 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program with the U.S. SEC  to raise more capital for additional SOL accumulation. Forward Strategies Doubles Down On Solana Strategy In a Wednesday press release, Forward Industries revealed that the 4 billion ATM equity offering program will allow the company to issue and sell common stock via Cantor Fitzgerald under a sales agreement dated Sept. 16, 2025. Forward said proceeds will go toward “general corporate purposes,” including the pursuit of its Solana balance sheet and purchases of income-generating assets. The sales of the shares are covered by an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that is already effective – meaning the shares will be tradable once they’re sold. An automatic shelf registration allows certain publicly listed companies to raise capital with flexibility swiftly.  Kyle Samani, Forward’s chairman, astutely described the ATM offering as “a flexible and efficient mechanism” to raise and deploy capital for the company’s Solana strategy and bolster its balance sheet.  Advertisement &nbsp Though the maximum amount is listed as $4 billion, the firm indicated that sales may or may not occur depending on existing market conditions. “The ATM Program enhances our ability to continue scaling that position, strengthen our balance sheet, and pursue growth initiatives in alignment with our long-term vision,” Samani said. Forward Industries kicked off its Solana treasury strategy on Sept. 8. The Wednesday S-3 form follows Forward’s $1.65 billion private investment in public equity that closed last week, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital. The company started deploying that capital this week, announcing it snatched up 6.8 million SOL for approximately $1.58 billion at an average price of $232…
