Tron Sharpe Ratio Shoots High-Risk Signal, Price Crash Soon?
Data shows the Tron Sharpe Ratio has observed a rapid increase into a territory that has proven to be bearish for TRX’s value in the past.
Sharpe Ratio Could Imply Tron Is Overheated Now
As explained by an analyst in a CryptoQuant Quicktake post, the 180-day of the Tron Sharpe Ratio is now flashing a red alert. The “Sharpe Ratio” here refers to an indicator that compares the returns of a given asset with its risk.
Its value is calculated as the difference between the asset’s expected return and the risk-free rate of return, divided by the volatility. This metric tells us whether the returns of the commodity are worth the risk involved with it.
Below is the chart shared by the quant that shows the trend in the 180-day version of the Sharpe Ratio for Tron over the last few years:

As the above graph shows, the 180-day Tron Sharpe Ratio has recently observed some rapid growth and reached what has historically been the ‘red’ zone.
In the chart, the quant has highlighted the instances of the metric breaching into this region during the last few years. TRX appears to have generally hit some top whenever the indicator’s value has risen this high.
Tron is now inside this same high-risk zone once again, but it’s possible that the coin may not immediately hit a top, as the indicator is still at a lower level than during some of the tops. The analyst cautions, however, saying:
While TRX may continue its upward trend in the short term, holding positions in a high-risk zone like this can be detrimental. The potential for gains becomes limited compared to the increased likelihood of a sharp pullback, making this an unfavorable situation for long-term strategies.
It remains to be seen how the cryptocurrency price will develop from here on out, considering the trend that has emerged in its 180-day Sharpe Ratio.
In some other news, the supply of Tether’s stablecoin, USDT, has recently witnessed considerable Tron network growth, as CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn pointed out in an X post.

The USDT supply on Tron has gone from $47.75 billion to $65.7 billion over the past year, representing an increase of more than 37%. This rise naturally shows how interest in using the stablecoin has increased on the network.
TRX Price
Tron broke through the $22 level a few days ago, but it appears the asset has since witnessed a cooldown in bullish momentum, as its price is now floating around $20.

The XRP price is enjoying bullish momentum as the crypto flipped BNB to become the fifth-largest crypto by market cap. Amid this development, crypto analyst Dark Defender has provided insights into what price levels the crypto could reach next as part of this bullish continuation.
XRP Price To Reach $3.4 Next As It Eyes ATH
In an X post, crypto analyst Dark Defender predicted that the XRP price could reach $3.4176 next as it targets its current all-time high (ATH) of $3.84. This came as the analyst noted that XRP broke one of the critical resistances at $1.44 and successfully retested $1.63 following that breakout.
With that successful retest, Dark Defender said that XRP could touch one of the main Fibonacci levels, which is $1.88. The analyst went on to list $3.41 as a new target that market participants should keep an eye on as the crypto could rally to that level once it reaches this Fib level.
Based on the analyst’s accompanying chart, this XRP price rally to $3.41 could happen sometime in December. Meanwhile, the crypto could also break its current ATH next month as Dark Defender reaffirmed that $5.85 is one of the targets to keep an eye on for XRP.
Interstingly, the crypto analyst doesn’t expect the XRP rally to stop there, as he highlighted $11.3 as a new target for the crypto in this bull run. Based on Dark Defender’s prediction, $11 is still unlikely to be the market top. He recently predicted that XRP could hit $18 sometime next year, using the Elliot Wave theory.
Meanwhile, the crypto analyst mentioned $1.44, $1.28, $1.14, and $1.03 as new support levels, which the crypto needs to hold above to enjoy these parabolic rallies. XRP is riding a bullish wave as it flipped the BNB to become the fifth-largest crypto by market cap.
Is Solana The Next?
In another X post, Dark Defender suggested that XRP could flip Solana next as the XRP price rallies further. The Solana price is currently trading at around $244, with a market cap of $115 billion. Meanwhile, XRP boasts a market cap of $96 billion.
An XRP price rally to $3.4 would give it a market cap of $193 billion and could see the crypto flip Solana. However, that will also depend on how high SOL rises during this period. Crypto analyst CrediBULL Crypto has even provided a more bullish outlook for XRP, stating that the crypto wants its ‘top 3’ spot back.
This means that XRP could flip Solana and Tether to become the third-largest crypto by market cap, behind the top 2 cryptos, Bitcoin and Ethereum. It is worth mentioning that XRP was once above Ethereum before the Ripple SEC lawsuit began in 2020.

XRP whales have taken action to shuffle over 100 million coins on Friday, setting off waves of speculation among traders and investors globally. As the Ripple Labs vs U.S. EC lawsuit reaches a potential end, these transactions have sparked substantial intrigue over the firm’s native coin’s future movements. Simultaneously, XRP price continues to pump, with the asset even surpassing BNB in terms of market cap.
XRP Whales Move Over 100M Coins, Ripple Case End Looms?
According to data from Whale Alert on November 29, two XRP whales have moved heavy amounts of the token. Per the data, rBJ.. moved 104.39 million coins, worth $167 million, to another unknown wallet, rhD. Subsequently, another whale address, rBE.. moved 35 million coins worth $52.28 million to another address, rsX. Altogether, these transactions ignited a speculative buzz as the company’s lawsuit against the U.S. SEC saw waves turning in favor of the American blockchain payments company.
Notably, the American blockchain payments company’s lawsuit against the SEC saw new turns, primarily in favor of XRP. Former CFTC Chairman Chris Giancarlo told FOX Business that the “new SEC will drop the appeal,” mirroring optimism in light of Donald Trump’s reelection. Pro-XRP Lawyers Bill Morgan, Fred Rispoli and Jeremy Hogan also proclaimed that the appeals will likely get dismissed or withdrawn. Overall, the XRP whale transactions amid these legal maneuvers have gained significant traction among industry participants globally.
On the other hand, the court has granted the motion to amend the order pertaining to judgment and stay in the XRP lawsuit, per the latest California district court filing in the re Ripple Labs Inc litigation. Both parties in the lawsuit collectively agreed that there was no specific reason to delay the judgment in the lawsuit, given class claims were resolved. Meanwhile, the plaintiff has requested the court for an “express finding in an amended judgment” primarily to avoid any further delay in the final judgment.
Ripple’s Coin’s Price Continues To Rally
At the time of reporting, XRP price soared 13% over the past day to reach $1.65. Its intraday low and high were $1.43 and $1.68, respectively. Notably, the token’s 24-hour trading volume witnessed a 50% uptick in value to $9.88 billion. The rising movement, as the lawsuit against the SEC nears its potential end, has ignited significant among traders and investors globally. It’s also noteworthy that the token flipped BNB in terms of market cap, boasting a valuation of $94.39 billion.
Meanwhile, a recent XRP price analysis by CoinGape Media revealed that the coin surged past a five-year resistance level in market dominance. This bullish trend has further ignited sentiments of a $10 target ahead for the coin. Market watchers continue to monitor the token, expecting further gains imminent.
