XRP moved mostly sideways on Sunday after a choppy week, down about 2% over the past seven days before rising 4.80% in the last 24 hours to $1.34. Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz revisited his long-circulated line that "XRP cannot be dirt cheap," saying it was meant to explain how the token works in payments rather than signal a price target. Analysts also flagged key levels including $1.31, $1.05–$1.09, and possible liquidity zones near $1.28 and $1.35.

XRP started April 6 in positive territory, rising 4.06% over the past 24 hours to about $1.35 at publication. Over the same period, derivatives positioning expanded, with open interest up around 5.73% and the OI-weighted funding rate turning positive. Despite the move, the article notes spot demand has appeared soft, alongside ETF outflows of roughly $3.56 million in the first week of April.

Solana (SOL) traded around $82 after a 3.5% uptick, following an alleged $285 million exploit of Drift Protocol that the project linked to North Korea's state-connected hackers. The attack was said to occur on April 1 in roughly 12 minutes and later reports described SOL's key levels at $78 support and $88 resistance, with $70 flagged if support fails.

TrueFi (TRU) has delivered a historic daily performance, surging 193% to trade at $0.01274 as of Monday, April 6, 2026. This explosive move has seen the uncollateralized lending protocol massively outperform the broader market's 3% rise, driven by a staggering 6,247% explosion in 24-hour trading volume. Having decoupled from major DeFi assets, TRU is currently the top-trending low-cap mover, fueled by intense speculative momentum and a high-conviction technical breakout from its recent all-time lows.

XRP rose from $1.29 to $1.34 on April 6, up about 3.5%, as buyers repeatedly defended the $1.30 area while price stayed boxed in near $1.30–$1.35. Whale transfers and large-holder exchange inflows to Binance have fallen sharply since mid-March, suggesting less immediate selling but no clear sign of renewed positioning.

Ripple is highlighting expanded access to traditional banking rails after a 2025 deal tied to a SWIFT-certified treasury management platform that processes about $13 trillion in annual payment flows. The setup lets institutions route settlements either through SWIFT rails or via blockchain using XRP or RLUSD, but any XRP price impact depends on real adoption in transaction activity.

Ethereum advanced from roughly $2,050 to $2,137 on April 6, a move of about 5% that unfolded within hours. The jump tracked reports of preliminary U.S.-Iran ceasefire discussions, though no agreement has been confirmed. At the same time, derivatives indicators—6.4 million ETH open interest and a 0.13 spot-to-futures ratio—pointed to leverage-led price action alongside weaker liquidity on Binance.

XRP’s spot price has fallen about 40% even as XRP-linked ETF products have recorded more than $1.21 billion in cumulative inflows, including roughly $64,000 in recent daily inflows. The token is trading near the $1.30 area and remains technically weak, while the article argues the highlighted $41 million in flows may be too small versus market liquidity to shift the downtrend.
