What moved
XRP is the week's weakest major coin, down 11.6% over seven days and 4.7% overnight. Ether's 4.9% daily drop was the largest among the large caps, which pushed the ETH price to a low of $2,080 on Coinbase in the past day. Bitcoin held a narrower range, between $73,477 and $75,998 over the same 24 hours, and sits about 13.6% below its September 21 peak on our three-month chart.
We did not find a single news catalyst for the overnight drop in Ether and XRP, and we will not guess at one. The move was broad rather than isolated, which usually points to market-wide positioning rather than a coin-specific event.
The Binance overhang
Regulatory pressure on the largest exchange is still building. Cointelegraph reported on Monday that Sen. Richard Blumenthal asked Binance, Tether, World Liberty Financial and Fight Fight Fight LLC to begin sending records by Nov. 30, with a voluntary deadline of Jan. 4, 2027, and warned of "alternative measures" if they miss it. Cointelegraph said the letter states Binance has not yet turned over any of the records requested in February, and that the companies did not respond to its request for comment.
