Cryptocurrency price forecast on July 12: XRP, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH)

Cryptocurrency rests after last week's gains

The cryptocurrency market is currently in a state of rest after last week's strong performance. The total market value is US$2.19 trillion, down slightly by 0.20% in the past 24 hours. Bitcoin is priced at approximately US$64,000. But the good news is: Big money is coming back. The combined net inflow of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF was US$282 million, breaking the eight-week trend of capital outflows. Circle also received approval from the Bank of America, marking another step in the adoption of stablecoins. At the same time, treasury bond firm Emperor Digital sold about half of its Bitcoin holdings to expand into artificial intelligence infrastructure. Today's market will determine whether the bulls will continue to rebound or whether the bears will regain control of the situation.

XRP prices are stable and supported as buyers wait for new catalysts.

XRP is currently trading at US$1.09, down 0.57% today. When we looked at the chart, we found that prices were still within the range that had been formed since late June. Buyers have defended in the $1.08 to $1.09 support area many times, but encounter new selling orders every time they rebound to $1.14 to $1.15. Successive lower highs from the July 5 highs also suggest that the bulls have not yet fully regained control.

Technical indicators are biased towards bearish but are stabilizing. The RSI is 41.04, below the midline. The Stochastic indicator has dropped to 12.58, entering the oversold territory, where a rebound usually occurs. The Ultimate Oscillator is 46.07, and the MACD is still negative-0.0023, but both the histogram and signal lines tend to flatten out. Seller pressure is no longer as high as earlier this week.

Interpretation of indicator numbers: RSI (14) 41.04 -sellers are still slightly dominant;STOCH (9,6) 12.58 -oversold;Ultimate Oscillator 46.07 -neutral short;MACD -0.0023 -bearish momentum is fading.

Key factors driving XRP prices

Ripple continues to benefit from a clearer regulatory environment. Ripple now has a full MiCA license in Luxembourg, allowing regulated payment and custody services in all 27 EU member states. Multiple spot XRP ETFs launched after November 2025 have also expanded the scope of institutional access. Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, also revealed that litigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission almost forced the company to shut down after bank partners left and major U.S. exchanges removed XRP. The comments take a fresh look at Ripple's regulatory battle, but the company's stronger legal status and European expansion continue to support the overall outlook.

Today's XRP Price Forecast

Bullishness: A breakthrough of $1.10 could open up space to $1.12 or even $1.15. Neutral: Maintaining between $1.08 and $1.10 remains the most likely outcome. Bear: A loss of $1.08 may cause the XRP price to fall back to around $1.05.

Bitcoin prices consolidate ahead of key inflation data

Bitcoin's current price is US$63,685, down slightly 0.15% today. When we pulled the chart, we found that the market was stabilizing after recovering from a low of $60,000 in June. Buyers have held on to the $63,000 mark for several days in a row, but each time they go up, they encounter resistance from around $64,200 to $64,500. One note: The chart has formed higher lows since early July, so bulls are still participating despite the slowing pace of gains.

Technical indicators show that the two sides are evenly matched. The RSI is 51.69, right on the midline. The stochastic indicator was 45.71, indicating that momentum has cooled from overbought levels earlier this month. The ultimate swing indicator is 46.05 and the MACD is still positive at 311, so despite the market pause, the bulls still have a slight advantage.

Indicator numerical interpretation: RSI (14) 51.69 -neutral;STOCH (9,6) 45.71 -kinetic energy cooling;Ultimate Oscillator 46.05 -neutral; MACD311-bulls still have a slight advantage.

Key factors driving Bitcoin prices

Everyone is waiting for the June U.S. inflation report to be released on July 14. Currently, the probability that the Fed will leave interest rates unchanged later this month is 64.6%. But if inflation data is higher than expected, it could push up Treasury yields and the dollar, which usually puts pressure on Bitcoin. The data on the chain is still mixed. Analyst Ali Martinez pointed out that aSOPR, Puell Multiple and Reserve Risk are all below bullish levels, indicating investors are acting cautiously.

Ethereum prices continue to rebound amid the return of ETF demand

Ethereum's current price is US$1,794.20, up slightly more than 0.4% today. When we pulled up the chart, we found that buyers were still driving the rally since the low near $1,520 in late June. Prices have rebounded above $1,750, but continued to encounter resistance in the $1,810 to $1,820 region, hindering gains. One note: Higher lows have formed in the past two weeks, which usually means someone is quietly buying.

Technical indicators are slightly bullish, but the range is limited. The RSI was 54.13, slightly above the midline. The random indicator is 63.25 and has not yet entered the overheating state. The final swing indicator is 52.45, which is in the neutral region. The MACD is positive at 13.4, which is not strong but is enough to maintain the rebound even though the pace of increase has slowed.

Interpretation of indicator numbers: RSI (14) 54.13 -Bulls have a slight advantage;STOCH (9,6) 63.25 -Positive momentum;Ultimate Oscillator 52.45 -Slightly bullish; MACD13.4-Bullish momentum is still there.
