Cryptocurrencies Market Prices
Ripple (XRP) edges lower toward the short-term $1.05 psychological support level at the time of writing on Wednesday. This marks three consecutive days of losses, undermining investor interest and the broader optimism for a potential deal between the United States (US) and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Taurus, a Switzerland-based digital asset infrastructure provider, announced on Wednesday that it has extended its services, targeting banks and regulated financial institutions on the Hedera (HBAR) network. Meanwhile, HBAR is paring losses, trading above $0.0650 at the time of writing. The token shows signs of stability amid a broader bearish trend.
Whilst hopes for a US-Iran agreement to revive the Strait of Hormuz and renewed AI-trade optimism lifted US equities to all-time highs, major cryptocurrencies remained largely sidelined on Wednesday. Bitcoin and Ether hovered near $64,000 and $1,800, respectively, extending their recent period of consolidation rather than participating in a broader risk rally they would normally follow.
