Nature’s fury has dealt a severe blow to North Bengal’s tea industry, as incessant heavy rains and landslides over the past two days have left vast stretches of the region — from the hills to the foothills — in ruins. Floodwaters have entered numerous tea gardens, submerging tea bushes, factories and workers’ homes, leading to catastrophic losses.
According to initial estimates, the damage amounts to nearly more than ₹100 crore, though tea traders fear the figure may rise. “Such a disaster has not been seen since 1968. The tea industry is practically on the verge of collapse,” said a member of the Dooars Branch Tea Association.
In Dooars, the Changmari Tea Garden factory has suffered massive losses, with CTC and green tea worth ₹5 crore destroyed by floodwaters. “At least 50 major gardens, including Gendrapara, Goodhope, Anandapur, Banarhat and Nagrakata, have sustained extensive damage. Roads, culverts and workers’ quarters within the gardens have collapsed, while trees have been uprooted and washed away in many places,” said the member.
Out of 276 large tea estates in North Bengal, 10 in the hills have been washed away by landslides, and 15 in the Dooars region are reported to be heavily affected. In Alipurduar’s Kalchini block, gardens such as Subhashini, Satali, Kalchini and Beech are now entirely underwater. The Tea Traders’ Association has appealed for state government assistance, stating that it will be impossible to recover without intervention.
Experts warn that the tea market may face a sharp rise in prices over the next few months due to disrupted production and reduced supply.
Meanwhile, the Alipur Meteorological Department has cautioned that the crisis may deepen. Under the influence of low pressure, the region could experience further heavy rainfall and thunderstorms. A ‘yellow alert’ has been issued for all eight districts of North Bengal, warning of gusty winds (30–40 km/h) and a high chance of landslides in hilly areas such as Darjeeling and Kalimpong.
With tea estates submerged, roads destroyed, and production halted, North Bengal’s century-old tea industry now faces one of its worst crises in decades.
Bitcoin BTCUSD starts its first full week of “Uptober” fresh from a new all-time high. What lies in store for BTC price action next?
Bitcoin snags a new record over the weekend, but traders expect some consolidation before heading toward $150,000.
BTC price support retest targets focus on $118,000 and above.
Classic bull-market gains may take longer to become reality, says an AI-based BTC price prediction tool.
Macroeconomic cues are expected to come from Federal Reserve officials this week amid the ongoing US government shutdown.
Crypto market sentiment just avoids “extreme greed” with Bitcoin’s move to all-time highs.
$150,000 becomes new BTC price goal
After an unusual weekend all-time high, Bitcoin is consolidating near the top of its historical trading range to start the week.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that BTCUSD is trading around $124,000.
The start of futures trading produced a “gap” that barely appeared before being filled — something trader Daan Crypto Trades described as a “classic weekend squeeze and retrace.”
“Bitcoin did end up making a relatively small gap on the CME futures chart but nothing noteworthy,” he wrote in an X post.
“There’s still the larger gap at $110K from last weekend but I wouldn’t value that until price gets within a few % from it. Especially if this trend keeps going into price discovery, you often see big gaps left behind on both the CME chart & Liquidity levels.”
For fellow trader Crypto Tony, BTC price upside targets hinge on its treatment of $123,000.

Oct 06, 2025
“$BTC has now reached a crucial resistance level,” crypto analyst and entrepreneur Ted Pillows continued.
“Yesterday, Bitcoin pushed above this level, but the move was entirely perps driven. If institutions bid again like last week, a reclaim is possible.”
Zooming out, appetites for higher levels are strong, with Cointelegraph reporting on expectations of $150,000 or more next.
Good morning!#Bitcoin’s new leg higher is underway, starting with a new ATH, and a new highest weekly close.
Next target: $150,000. pic.twitter.com/p5EJqusjDR
Oct 06, 2025
Crypto trader, analyst and entrepreneur Michaël van de Poppe argued that the $150,000 mark should come after a consolidation phase.
“I don’t think #Bitcoin will blast through the ATH in one-go. It needs a little bit of patience, before it should continue moving,” he told X followers on Monday.
“In that aspect, I expect to see a correction and anything beneath $121.5K is a good area to enter before we’ll head to $150K.”
Bitcoin traders eye as much as 4% dip
As Cointelegraph reported, market participants still expect some form of BTC price retracement to occur from record levels.
No bull run goes up in a straight line, and key targets for a support retest are now materializing.
Among them is the 50-period exponential moving average (EMA) on four-hour time frames at the time of writing, which was at $119,250 and rising quickly.
“For the week ahead, I think we could see a 4h50EMA retest – it’s overextended and you can see the retests in previous similar Price Action,” trader CrypNuevo wrote in an X thread on Sunday.
“After that, we should see a new move up higher. Therefore, I’m still favoring longs over shorts from the 4h50EMA.”
An accompanying chart highlighted the results of interaction with the EMA since the start of May.
Trader and analyst Rekt Capital, meanwhile, argued that it was unreasonable to expect the price to launch into unknown territory without first establishing support at the top of its range.
“There’s should be no surprise that Bitcoin has rejected from ~$124k on the first time of asking in this uptrend. After all, the last time Bitcoin rejected from $124k, the rejection preceded a -13% pullback,” he told X followers over the weekend.
“Bitcoin needs to prove this $124k resistance is a weakening point of rejection. And any shallower dip or pullback from here would do just that.”
Rekt Capital suggested that a 4% dip to meet a rising trend line at around $118,000 would mean that Bitcoin would “still be positioned for additional upside later on.”
“I would not want to see price lose that $117K-$118K again. This was roughly the mid range and a very high volume area,” Daan Crypto Trades, said in his X update on Monday.
“Overall structure looks good, just needs to maintain higher highs and higher lows from here on out. If this starts ranging again between $112K-$124K that would not be great for the larger view I think.”
AI says no more Bitcoin “Uptober”
Amid increasing excitement over the crypto bull run’s next innings, a new style of prediction tool may disappoint those hoping for swift gains.
In one of its “Quicktake” blog posts on Monday, onchain analytics platform CryptoQuant raised questions over how “Uptober” may shape up.
“After a significant uptrend, the price has entered a consolidation phase between the key support at 108,000 and the resistance at 123,000,” contributor CryptoOnchain summarized.
“This price action on the technical chart shows signs of a ‘re-accumulation’ period, during which large market players may be accumulating their positions for the next major move.”
BTCUSD surprised with a new all-time high over the weekend, but despite this, the rest of the month risks not meeting expectations.
The proof, CryptoQuant says, comes from AI. Its proprietary forecasting tool, NBeats Ensemble, which gathers data from nearly 400 “onchain features,” now says that the odds of an October BTC price breakout are “low.”
“The model’s prediction is for continued fluctuations within the current range. However, there is a subtle yet important nuance in this forecast: the model expects these fluctuations to occur primarily in the upper half of the range,” the post said.
Bitcoin should thus spend multiple weeks preparing a resistance breakout, which will flip $123,000 from resistance to support. Hodlers, meanwhile, need patience.
“By combining technical analysis with the AI model’s forecast, the most probable scenario for October 2025 is the continuation of Bitcoin’s neutral, range-bound movement,” CryptoQuant concluded.
“Traders should closely monitor the support level at 108,000 and the resistance at 123,000, as a decisive break of either level could define the next mid-term directional move.”
Fed officials to speak as shutdown halts data
The ongoing US government shutdown adds to the list of delayed macroeconomic data this week.
That makes for an interesting round of appearances by senior Federal Reserve officials, several of whom are due to take to the stage over the coming days.
They include SEC Chair Jerome Powell, who will deliver prerecorded welcoming remarks at the Community Bank Conference in Washington. Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman will make two appearances at the event.
Powell has long been under pressure from US President Donald Trump to quicken interest-rate cuts, something the Fed only voted to commence last month after holding rates steady throughout 2025.
The absence of data, notably pertaining to the weakening labor market, creates friction. The Fed’s next rate decision is about three weeks away.
“The markets are looking ahead to the October and December Fed meetings amid the shutdown,” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter summarized in an X thread.
For crypto and risk-asset bulls, tailwinds remain. The shutdown, sources argue, is likely to remain a “non-event” for the markets, and with six months of straight gains for US stocks, there is increasingly little reason to doubt the uptrend.
“The stock market continues climbing the ‘wall of worry,’ trading resource Mosaic Asset Company wrote in the latest edition of its regular newsletter, “The Market Mosaic.”
“Despite concerns over the health of the labor market and economic impact of the government shutdown, the S&P 500 is hovering near record highs and has spent 108 consecutive days trading above its 50-day moving average.”
Among the risks to the strength of the risk-on rally, Mosaic highlighted a possible rebound in US dollar strength, as indicated by the US Dollar Index (DXY).
The index has struggled with a rebound after hitting 96.22 in mid-September — its lowest level since February 2022.
Greedy, but not too greedy?
In just 10 days, crypto market sentiment has flipped on its head — but traders have kept their cool at all-time highs.
The latest readings from the Crypto Fear & Greed Index show that while “greed” now dominates, excessive emotions have not yet entered the market.
On Sunday, the Index hit local highs of 74/100, stopping short of its “extreme greed” zone to drop back to 71/100 to start the week.
Those levels still represent a threefold increase versus lows of 26/100 seen on Sept. 26.
Bitcoin’s previous all-time high in mid-August, for reference, delivered peak Fear & Greed Index readings of 75/100, with the trip to $125,700 thus narrowly forming a divergence with price.
Elsewhere, another sentiment measure, this time from crypto analytics platform Alphractal, closely tracked the late September lows and subsequent rebound.
This is the most accurate sentiment analysis metric in the crypto market that I know.
The Fear and Greed Index generates some noise, but this one is the pure alpha of the sentiment from analysts who set the tops and bottoms of Bitcoin😆

Silver price (XAG/USD) retreats after reaching the new 14-year high of $48.77 reached in the previous session, trading around $47.90 per troy ounce during the early European hours on Tuesday. The technical analysis of the daily chart timeframe suggests the price of the precious metal moves upwards within an ascending channel pattern, strengthening the bullish bias.
Additionally, the XAG/USD pair is positioned above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), indicating that short-term price momentum is stronger. However, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains above the 70 level, suggesting that the Silver price is trading within overbought territory and a potential for a downward correction.
On the upside, the XAG/USD pair may test the psychological level of $48.00, followed by the all-time high of $48.77. A break above this level would support the Silver price to test the upper boundary of the ascending channel at $49.40. A break above the channel would strengthen the bullish bias and support the pair to approach the psychological level of $50.00.
The primary support lies at the nine-day EMA of $47.00. A break below this level would dampen the short-term price momentum and prompt the Silver price navigate the region around the ascending channel’s lower boundary at $44.10. Further declines below the channel would dampen the bullish bias and put downward pressure on the XAG/USD pair to reach the 50-day EMA of $42.13.

Silver FAQs
Silver is a precious metal highly traded among investors. It has been historically used as a store of value and a medium of exchange. Although less popular than Gold, traders may turn to Silver to diversify their investment portfolio, for its intrinsic value or as a potential hedge during high-inflation periods. Investors can buy physical Silver, in coins or in bars, or trade it through vehicles such as Exchange Traded Funds, which track its price on international markets.
Silver prices can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can make Silver price escalate due to its safe-haven status, although to a lesser extent than Gold’s. As a yieldless asset, Silver tends to rise with lower interest rates. Its moves also depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAG/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Silver at bay, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to propel prices up. Other factors such as investment demand, mining supply – Silver is much more abundant than Gold – and recycling rates can also affect prices.
Silver is widely used in industry, particularly in sectors such as electronics or solar energy, as it has one of the highest electric conductivity of all metals – more than Copper and Gold. A surge in demand can increase prices, while a decline tends to lower them. Dynamics in the US, Chinese and Indian economies can also contribute to price swings: for the US and particularly China, their big industrial sectors use Silver in various processes; in India, consumers’ demand for the precious metal for jewellery also plays a key role in setting prices.
Silver prices tend to follow Gold’s moves. When Gold prices rise, Silver typically follows suit, as their status as safe-haven assets is similar. The Gold/Silver ratio, which shows the number of ounces of Silver needed to equal the value of one ounce of Gold, may help to determine the relative valuation between both metals. Some investors may consider a high ratio as an indicator that Silver is undervalued, or Gold is overvalued. On the contrary, a low ratio might suggest that Gold is undervalued relative to Silver.
The euro has initially fallen during the trading session here on Monday to break down to test this crucial uptrend line. That being said, it does look like they are at least trying to save the euro in early trading. A lot of things are going on in this chart that you may or may not be aware of.
The 50-day EMA and the uptrend line, both of course, offer a certain amount of support. But what really captures my attention at the moment at least, is the fact that the peak was the FOMC press conference. We haven’t broken above that high since. And while everybody is suggesting that the US dollar is going to collapse and the world’s reserve currency will become the Chinese Yuan, the reality is the US dollar isn’t going anywhere. And I think we’re on the precipice of something rather big.
Time to Short? Maybe Not Yet.
Now, I can’t say that it’s time to start shorting quite yet. But if this pair breaks down below the 1.16 level, I won’t hesitate because it has shown me that, despite the fact that there is a central bank in the United States likely to cut rates at least one or two more times, the reality is people are starting to worry about the health of the global economic situation. And if that’s the case, that’s pro US dollar. You need US dollars to cover your debts. So, beyond that, I also think you need to keep an eye on the U.S. Treasury market. If rates start dropping, that could be a sign that people are preparing for the Fed to cut, but it could also be a sign that people are running to safety. And if that’s the case, if you’re in Europe, you need dollars to do that. If you’re in Great Britain, you will also need dollars to buy US Treasuries. So, a little bit of a push and pull situation here. On the upside, if we can break above the 1.18 level on a daily close again, then maybe we try to take out the high and go look into the 1.20 level. But right now, it’s not showing the proclivity to suddenly take off like I think a lot of you may have been anticipating.

Even the simple act of preparing and drinking tea may play a role in losing weight. One of the most significant benefits of tea is that it promotes mindfulness, says Brittany Werner, M.S., a Pennsylvania-based registered dietitian and Forbes Health Advisory Board member. “Pausing and preparing tea really allows us to check in with our hunger cues, leading to more mindful decisions around food. Hot tea also has a soothing effect that may lead to a reduction in emotional eating,” she says.
The most popular teas to consume are black tea, green tea and oolong tea, and in addition to being virtually calorie-free, they contain ingredients that may contribute to weight loss. Here’s what we know about consuming tea—without added sugar or milk—and weight loss.
Black Tea
Drinking black tea may contribute to weight loss due to its caffeine. “The caffeine in black tea will slightly increase someone’s daily calorie burn,” notes Werner. In fact, a 2019 review of randomized controlled trials showed caffeine intake may contribute to lower fat and body mass index (BMI) and body fat reduction. An 8-ounce cup of black tea contains about 48 milligrams of caffeine.
Black tea also contains polyphenols, which are compounds found in plant foods that may provide protection against type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, among other capabilities.
The effect of black tea on weight loss is very small, Werner says, but it can help weight loss as a calorie-free drink—and of course it’s only calorie-free when it’s made without sugar or milk. “I would recommend black tea as a good low-calorie replacement for sugary beverages,” she adds.
In fact, drinking tea has the most impact on weight when it replaces drinking beverageswith a lot of calories.
Green Tea
Drinking green tea has several health benefits, and contributing to weight loss may be one of them.
Green tea is made by steaming, pan frying and then drying tea leaves. An 8-ounce cup contains about 29 milligrams of caffeine. In addition to caffeine, “there are compounds in tea that may play a role in our metabolism,” notes Werner. “The antioxidant catechin is mostly found in green tea, and it’s been shown to boost fat oxidation and improve overall metabolism.”
Antioxidants protect cells from free radicals, which are unstable cells that may have a role in aging and diseases such as cancer.
, such as legumes,and may help prevent chronic illnesseslike cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. The combination of catechins and caffeine could affect a person’s weight, depending on their physical activity, according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health. A review of 26 randomized controlled trials that lasted eight to 12 weeks found that tea consumption, primarily involving green tea, did contribute to weight loss.
But more research on humans is needed to confirm the positive effects of catechins on weight management.
All Your Greens In One Simple Scoop
This all-natural greens powder, with 20+ superfoods, digestive enzymes, and probiotics, is a top-value choice. Available in Original and Berry flavors, it’s vegan, gluten-free, and free of sugar and sweeteners.
Like black and green tea, oolong tea is made from the Camellia sinensis plant. While black tea is processed with fermentation, oolong tea is only partially fermented.
More than 100 compounds have been identified in oolong tea, and a review of literature on this tea showed that it can help prevent obesity and the onset of diabetes. Among its many compounds, oolong tea contains catechins, which may support weight loss.
Drinking any type of tea can be an enjoyable, calming activity that may have benefits beyond contributing to weight loss.
“Teas have multiple ingredients that, while they don’t directly influence fat loss, do support overall health,” says Werner. “Herbal teas are typically caffeine-free, and while they will not promote fat loss, they can help support overall wellness, digestion, hydration and appetite regulation,” she adds. “Peppermint and ginger support healthy digestion, and cinnamon and hibiscus have positive effects on blood sugar regulation and lowering blood pressure.”
The market is buzzing with talk about the latest Cardano price prediction, as ADA battles between holding $0.83 support and chasing the $1 level.
Yet while traders speculate on ADA’s near-term direction, many investors are rotating into Remittix, a PayFi altcoin that has already raised $26.9 million through the sale of 674 million tokens at $0.1130 each. Experts suggest Remittix may be the best crypto to buy now for exponential growth in Q4.
Cardano Price Prediction Faces Crossroads
Source: TradingView
Cardano price has been consolidating between $0.82 and $0.84, with immediate resistance near $0.91. Analysts argue that holding above the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement keeps momentum alive, giving ADA a chance to test $1.01 in the weeks ahead. Futures open interest has surged above $1.4 billion, showing that speculation is rising even as ADA trades sideways. Still, downside risks remain. A failure to protect $0.764 could push Cardano back toward $0.70, breaking its fragile recovery pattern.
Despite a positive backdrop of rising liquidity and renewed DeFi efforts, ADA continues to lag behind competitors. The uncertain Cardano price prediction reflects this tug of war between cautious optimism and bearish technicals. The next decisive move will come once ADA either clears the $0.91 resistance zone or slips below clustered EMAs. Until then, traders remain split on whether $0.50 or $1 comes first.
Remittix Emerges As The Best Crypto To Buy Now
While ADA struggles with resistance, Remittix has captured global attention as one of the best crypto projects of 2025. The team has already secured listings on BitMart and LBank, with two new CEX reveals coming soon.
More importantly, the Remittix Web App is nearing completion, with beta testing for crypto-to-fiat transfers set for mid-Q4. Once integrated into the Remittix Wallet, this feature will power seamless payments across 30+ fiat currencies, driving mass adoption in the PayFi sector.
Why Remittix is standing out from other altcoins:
Over $26.9M raised and 674M tokens sold at $0.1130
Two major CEX announcements on the horizon
Web App launch to enable instant crypto-to-fiat payments
Designed for freelancers, businesses, and remitters worldwide
Ranked #1 on CertiK’s pre-launch leaderboard for security
Why Cardano Holders Are Turning To Remittix
The latest Cardano price prediction shows ADA facing heavy resistance, leaving many investors doubtful of a quick return to $1. In contrast, Remittix combines strong tokenomics with a clear PayFi roadmap, giving early buyers exposure to what could be the next 100x crypto. With new listings and product launches set for Q4, Remittix is being called the best long-term crypto investment as 2025 momentum builds.

If you are someone who loves to try healthy drinks, then you must have heard about matcha by now. This green coloured foamy drink has gained immense popularity in recent years. Social media and wellness enthusiasts have popularised it further. Did you know matcha tea has varied health benefits? This green tea is rich in antioxidants and catechins, which provides various perks for health. Read on.
What Is Matcha Tea?
Matcha is a type of green tea, found in powdered form. It is made from finely powdered dried tea leaves. The powder when whisked into hot water forms a frothy drink. The entire act of preparing, presenting, and sipping matcha forms the backbone of the Japanese tea ceremony. It’s been the cornerstone of traditional Japanese tea ceremonies for centuries. But recently, it has become popular in the US and other parts of the world because of its varied health benefits. Matcha also acts as a cooking ingredient, used in everything from ice cream to salad dressing.
(This article has been verified and vetted by Dt. Avanee Parekh, BHSc, PG Dietetics).
Health Benefits of Matcha Tea
Matcha is richer in nutrients like theanine, vitamins, and fiber than other types of green tea. It is used as powder in tea, lattes, smoothies, and also baked goods. Let’s take a look at some of the probable health benefits of matcha:
Promotes Heart Health
The compounds that are present in matcha are similar to those in green tea. This has been shown to lower the risk of heart disease. Matcha contains catechins, which may lower oxidative stress and prevent inflammation. Catechins are also very good for the heart and might lower your risk of atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
Improves Brain Function
Matcha may provide a boost to one’s brain. It has also been linked to better attention, memory, and response time. This may be owing to its caffeine content. More research is needed on this topic though.
Protects Against Cancer
Catechins in matcha, especially epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), may shield cells from DNA damage and slow growth of tumor. Some studies on animals discovered that EGCG might prevent cancer, but more research is needed on this topic.
Supports Dental Health
EGCG, present in matcha, can help slow bacterial growth that are responsible for plaque and cavities. Matcha has also been found to be better at reducing bad breath. It might also help lessen symptoms of gum disease.
Lowers Inflammation
Antioxidants in matcha may protect cells against damage from free radicals. This can help lower inflammation and prevent chronic health conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
Matcha doesn’t have a very long shelf life. Once you open the packet, try to use it within two months for the best taste and colour. All you need to prepare matcha tea is matcha powder, hot water, a whisk and sweetener (optional). Now, let’s take a look at how to prepare matcha tea:
Sift It Well
Before adding it in water, sift it well. Otherwise, the matcha powder will form lumps, which might make it difficult for the tea to disperse evenly in the water.
Whisk The Matcha
Whisk the matcha vigorously from side to side – either in a zigzag pattern or directly back and forth. This evenly disperses the powder in the liquid and gives a foamy layer on top. Avoid whisking in a circular motion.
Top It Off With Milk
You can top your matcha tea with steamed milk. This is optional though. Matcha tea is generally made with its powder and hot water.
Possible Side Effects Of Matcha Tea
There are possible side effects and risks related to matcha consumption. This is because matcha contains both beneficial and harmful substances. Consuming more than 2 cups (474 mL) of matcha per day is not recommended generally. Some studies cite the following side effects of matcha:
Matcha may cause nausea and symptoms of liver or kidney toxicity.
Caffeine content in matcha may lead to insomnia, irritability, or rapid heartbeat.
Consuming matcha in large quantities may cause stomach issues.
Catechins in matcha may restrict iron absorption in the body.
Conclusion
Matcha is a Japanese green tea. It is richer in nutrients like caffeine, theanine, vitamins, and fiber than other types of green tea. From promoting heart health to supporting dental health, matcha has myriad health benefits. More research on this topic is needed though. It is advised to consult a physician before including matcha to your daily diet.
FAQ
Does matcha have caffeine in it?
Yes, matcha has high caffeine content. It is typically higher than that of other green teas.
Is matcha tea good for belly fat?
Yes, matcha can be good for reducing belly fat because of its high concentration of catechins, especially EGCG.
Is it good to drink matcha tea every day?
Yes, it is generally good to drink matcha tea every day, as it is packed with antioxidants and other beneficial compounds that support heart and brain health.
What is the best time to drink matcha tea?
The best time to drink matcha is typically in the morning or before a workout for improved performance and fat oxidation.
What are the side effects of drinking too much matcha tea?
Drinking too much matcha may lead to various side effects including insomnia, anxiety, jitteriness, rapid heart rate, digestive issues like an upset stomach, diarrhea, or constipation.

A single whale just dumped over 160 million XRP, and the market noticed. Now every XRP price prediction comes with a dose of caution. Some say it’s noise. Others say it’s a red flag. Either way, momentum is shaky—and that’s pushing traders to look at newer coins like Layer Brett, where upside hasn’t been front-run by whales.
It only takes one big move to rattle the market. This time, it was a whale unloading over 160 million XRP—a sale that sent ripples (pun intended) through the community. It’s worth speculating on the motives: Is this just routine profit-taking, or a signal that big holders are losing faith?
The truth is complicated. XRP has had a strong year legally, with Ripple scoring partial victories against the SEC. That helped restore confidence and sparked an earlier rally. Even with those legal victories, XRP hasn’t been able to keep the fire going. That big whale sell-off just poured more cold water on things, leaving traders uneasy. Now, every XRP price prediction comes with a raised eyebrow. Sure, some point to Ripple’s growing role in fintech and ODL deals—but others see weak trading volume and tough resistance ahead.
Sentiment-wise, XRP finds itself in limbo—trusted by long-term holders, but increasingly ignored by short-term speculators. The whale sale didn’t help. It added just enough doubt to slow things down.
So, what does the average XRP price prediction look like heading into Q4? Mild upside, maybe. But big breakouts feel unlikely unless major catalysts appear. That’s why some traders are shifting focus to newer tokens with more momentum—and fewer whales dumping in the background.
Layer Brett (LBRETT): While XRP hesitates, this Layer 2 rocket is just getting started
While every new XRP price prediction seems to wobble between optimism and doubt, Layer Brett is heading in the opposite direction—fast. Built as an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain, it combines meme coin energy with real functionality: lightning-fast transactions, ultra-low gas fees, and a staking dApp dishing out over 600% APY. All at a price still under a cent.
That’s the appeal. While XRP wrestles with resistance levels and unpredictable whale moves, Layer Brett offers early-stage potential without the baggage. Layer Brett’s not trying to win a lawsuit or resurrect a rally—it’s building, growing, and stacking new buyers who are more interested in speed and upside than legacy narratives.
Add to that a social presence that’s exploding across Telegram and X, and you’ve got a coin that feels alive. Not just technically, but culturally. Layer Brett isn’t just another meme—it’s a Layer 2 built for scale, wrapped in viral energy.
For traders burned out on watching XRP price prediction videos that say the same thing over and over, Layer Brett is refreshing. It doesn’t need to recover. It doesn’t need a breakout. It just needs time—and that makes it one of the few tokens in 2025 where hitting new highs actually feels possible.
It’s early. It’s fast. And Layer Brett’s not waiting for whales to decide the trend.
Conclusion
If the latest XRP price prediction feels like déjà vu, you’re not alone. Legal clarity helped—but price action hasn’t followed. In contrast, Layer Brett is all forward motion: speed, staking, and scale. It’s not trying to recover—it’s just getting started. For traders done waiting on Ripple, Brett might be the one worth watching next.
