SUI Price Soars 12% In Minutes, Triggering Huge Liquidations: Predictions For The Altcoin

The native token of the decentralized smart contract platform Sui (SUI) kicked off the week with an all-time high of $4.96, buoyed by an overall bullish trend in the cryptocurrency market. The momentum was short-lived, as SUI experienced a significant retracement on Friday, plummeting nearly 30% to $3.49. However, the token rebounded swiftly, stabilizing at approximately $4.55, representing a 12.8% increase from the week’s low and just 8.9% shy of its record price, SUI Surges Amid Market Volatility In stark contrast, major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have continued to experience downward corrections following the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed)0 recent decision regarding interest rates. The Fed’s dovish stance has negatively impacted risk assets, contributing to a generally bearish sentiment in the market that led the market’s leading crypto, to retrace almost 10% from the record high of $108,000. The volatility surrounding SUI led to nearly $14 million in liquidations across both long and short positions on centralized exchanges, with Binance reporting the highest liquidation rates within the past 24 hours, according to data from Coinalyze.

He expressed optimism that this trend is far from over, suggesting that SUI could continue its upward trajectory with a target of $6 in sight. The recent surge in SUI’s price is also expected to attract Bitcoin liquidity into its ecosystem, further enhancing the token’s bullish prospects. Technical analyst Rekt Capital highlighted that SUI has effectively executed a post-breakout retest from its re-accumulation range. Rekt also noted that strategic partnerships with Babylon Labs and Lombard Finance would facilitate the integration of Bitcoin liquidity, which could significantly benefit the Sui platform.

This is expected to continue throughout the current bullish cycle and into 2025, adding to the bullish sentiment for the altcoin as the year draws to a close.

Ripple, Dogecoin Whales Bought the Dip as XRP, DOGE Prices Soar

TL:DR; Investors with lots of conviction for certain assets tend to utilize deep corrections to stack more of those coins, and this seems to be the case in regards to the two of the largest cryptocurrencies – DOGE and XRP. On-chain data shows that large wallets poured millions into both during the recent market meltdown. The market-wide crash that began in the middle of the business week caught many by surprise, given the billions of dollars worth of liquidations that were evident on a couple of occasions. All crypto assets headed south vigorously, with BTC leading the way by plummeting from over $108,000 on Tuesday to $92,000 on Friday. As it typically happens, the altcoins were not sparred, just the opposite. Dogecoin and Ripple were among the worst-performing assets at one point. The largest meme coin stood north of $0.41 before the correction began but dumped by over 35% to its low on Friday of $0.26. XRP’s price plummet was almost identical as the asset came crashing down from $2.72 on Tuesday to $1.96 – a 28% drop. However, both have bounced off since those lows, with DOGE trading close to $0.34 (30% higher) and XRP at $2.3 ( up by 17% ). On-chain data shared by the popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez shows that whales tracking both assets didn’t sit on the sideline but actually went on an accumulation spree. In Ripple’s case, they stacked up on 80 million tokens since the retracement began on December 17.
