The crypto market is swaying, the nerves are frayed, and tokens are raining down like dead leaves in a macroeconomic autumn. Yet, in this grim setting, Shiba Inu (SHIB) holds on, refusing the addition of a fatal zero, and resists where others have already collapsed. No lyrical flight for now, but there is tension in the air: what if the calm heralds a spectacular comeback? As Bitcoin wavers between hiccup and paralysis, even for the coming months , SHIB stands firm. Despite a 3.08% drop in 24h, the token proudly maintains its position above $0.00001, narrowly avoiding the humiliation of an additional zero. The support at $0.00001028 has, once again, served as a floor against the downpour. Short-term indicators give fodder to optimists. If the crypto SHIB breaks the resistance at $0.00001109 and the candle closes at a peak, the movement could take it toward $0.00001150. However, the bulls, after several timid charges, seem short on fuel. The most likely scenario? A consolidation in the $0.00001050 – $0.00001150 zone. In the medium term, the issue lies elsewhere: the weekly close must move significantly away from the pivot level of $0.00001078. Only under this condition will analysts dare to speak of a rebound toward $0.000012. In the midst of the malaise, the SHIB community does not give up. Lucie, an engaged member of the team, blows on the embers with confidence: SHIB holds firm. When the turnaround comes, it can happen very quickly. Look at its current valuation. Some are sleeping on it, but those who pay attention know what’s coming. In other words: the ambient torpor is nothing but a temporary sleep. The informed, however, are ready. In a second breath, she readjusts the skeptics in her way: The echo chambers full of FUD about SHIB are trying to sell you their other crap — meh! SHIB simply follows the market. But let’s be honest — no one really doubts its real value. A clear message addressed to fear sellers: the fundamentals are there, even if the price is not following yet. The fate of SHIB, as often, does not depend solely on its community or its technical levels. It relies on a broader mechanism: the awakening of the crypto market as a whole. Recent massive liquidations — $445 million in 24h — show that investors are sailing blind, caught in a sea of macroeconomic uncertainties. No sustainable recovery for SHIB will materialize without a positive signal from bitcoin. In the meantime, SHIB remains suspended at its support, ready to jump if the planets align… or to bend if the market plunges further. The memecoin Shiba Inu takes hits, steps back, but does not capitulate and promises a spectacular comeback . Its line at $0.00001 is more than just a number: it is a declaration of resistance. While bearish echoes rattle on the networks, the community holds its ground. The turnaround? It might come… but not without bitcoin showing the way.

Standard Chartered projects XRP may surpass Ethereum in market cap by 2028, citing cross-border utility, legal clarity, and institutional interest. Ethereum’s upcoming Pectra upgrade could challenge XRP’s momentum, aiming to boost ETH’s efficiency and possibly drive its price to $12,000. Following the price forecast previously discussed in a CNF update , where ETH’s price was flagged as being in potential danger, a recent analysis from Standard Chartered Bank has projected that XRP, the native token of the Ripple network, could overtake Ethereum (ETH) in market capitalization by the end of 2028. This forecast is rooted in XRP’s expanding role in cross-border and cross-currency payments —a sector experiencing significant growth. Geoff Kendrick, the bank’s Head of Digital Asset Research, emphasized that current global trade dynamics present opportunities for digital assets like XRP to thrive. In addition, a tweet by DustyBCCrypto shared: that Standard Chartered says XRP could hit $5.50 by end of 2025 and overtake Ethereum by 2028. The bank sees XRP dominating cross-border payments and surging to $12.50 by 2028. 💥BREAKING STANDARD CHARTERED SAYS XRP COULD HIT $5.50 BY END OF 2025 AND OVERTAKE ETHEREUM BY 2028 THE BANK SEES XRP DOMINATING CROSS BORDER PAYMENTS AND SURGING TO $12.50 BY 2028 pic.twitter.com/Y7ibhivQ1Q — DustyBC Crypto (@TheDustyBC) April 8, 2025 According to Barron’s, after a protracted four-year legal battle, the SEC dropped its appeal against Ripple, effectively concluding the $1.3 billion lawsuit that had accused the company of conducting an unregistered securities offering. This resolution has removed a significant cloud of uncertainty, allowing Ripple to concentrate on expanding its ecosystem and fostering partnerships. The market responded positively to this development, with XRP’s price experiencing a surge—reflecting renewed investor confidence. While XRP’s prospects appear promising, Ethereum continues to innovate and expand its capabilities. The upcoming Pectra upgrade, slated for release in the first quarter of 2025, aims to significantly enhance Ethereum’s scalability and efficiency. Moreover, industry experts, including Dr. Sean Dawson of Derive, project that such advancements could propel ETH’s price to as high as $12,000 within the year. This anticipated growth underscores Ethereum’s resilience and its ongoing efforts to maintain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving digital asset landscape. Standard Chartered’s projection of XRP potentially surpassing Ethereum by 2028 hinges on several factors, including legal clarity, institutional adoption, and the broader evolution of the cryptocurrency market. While XRP’s recent developments position it favorably, Ethereum’s ongoing upgrades and established presence suggest a dynamic and competitive landscape in the years ahead. At the time of writing, Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $1,461.39, reflecting a 6.88% decrease over the past day and 21.81% in the past week, according to CoinMarketCap data. See the ETH price chart below.

Teucrium’s 2X Long Daily XRP ETF made its trading debut on NYSE Arca, pulling in $5 million in volume on launch day alone. The product, which is structured to double XRP’s daily price movement, stood out sharply in a slow-moving market where most ETFs struggle to get attention. This debut didn’t just slide in quietly. Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas said the fund’s volume lands it comfortably in the top 5% of all new ETFs ever launched. That’s no small feat for any product, especially one linked to a digital asset still tangled up in the long shadow of regulatory uncertainty. $XXRP (2x XRP ETF) saw $5mil in volume on Day One, very respectable, esp considering the mkt conditions. That puts it in approx top 5% of new ETF launches, and about 4x what the 2x Solana ETF $SOLT did (altho both 200x less than King IBIT). pic.twitter.com/u3QQq5yuHv — Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) April 8, 2025 The timing is far from random. Ripple’s courtroom drama with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is nearing a conclusion, and there’s a growing lineup of traditional finance giants aiming to get in on the XRP action. Institutions are clearly warming up. Compared to its peers, the ETF’s launch was something of a thunderclap. The Solana 2X ETF (SOLT), which hit the market earlier, barely made a splash in comparison. It drew in roughly one-quarter of XRP’s opening volume. That gap points to investors’ rising appetite to bet on XRP’s next big move. However, it wasn’t all roses. Balchunas offered perspective, saying that while XRP’s numbers are strong, “it pales compared to BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust ( IBIT ),” which had a debut volume crossing $1 billion. In other words, XRP is punching above its weight—but still in a different ring than the heavyweights like Bitcoin. Teucrium is charging a 1.85% management fee on the fund. It’s meant for quick trades, not long-term holders, and comes with warnings baked in—namely, XRP’s price swings and usage volatility, which could shake returns. While the Teucrium fund leads the way, for now, the ETF pipeline for XRP is growing thick. Franklin Templeton, managing $1.5 trillion in assets, filed recently for a spot XRP ETF on Cboe. They join a list that includes WisdomTree, Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital, and Grayscale. That’s a big wall of Wall Street names trying to get a slice of the action. Grayscale’s proposal goes a step further. They’re looking to convert their XRP Trust into a full-blown ETF via the NYSE. With Ripple dropping its cross-appeal against the SEC, the road looks clearer, though not yet fully paved. Brazil has already moved forward. Hashdex’s XRP ETF was approved by regulators there and now trades on the B3 exchange. The market reacted fast—XRP shot up 6% on that news, a strong sign that investor optimism is reaching beyond U.S. borders.

Popular asset manager 21Shares has made history by launching Europe’s first Dogecoin (DOGE) Exchange-Traded Product (ETP). 21Shares collaborated with the House of Doge to create the only DOGE ETP endorsed by the Dogecoin Foundation. According to the announcement , the 21Shares Dogecoin ETP with the DOGE ticker is scheduled to go live on Europe’s SIX Swiss exchange. The product is backed physically 100%, providing investors with a sure way to gain exposure to Dogecoin through traditional financial channels. Additionally, 21Shares will charge investors a 2.5% management fee. The new DOGE ETP will empower new types of investors to participate in the Dogecoin ecosystem. Therefore, the product will help to reinforce Dogecoin’s role as a leader in the future of digital assets. Advisory Board Member at House of Doge Jens Wiechers said institutional support and corporate partnerships are essential for Dogecoin to reach its full potential as a global currency. He added that 21Shares DOGE ETP provides a regulated path for institutions to participate in the ‘Dogecoin is Money’ vision. “Global adoption is critical, and we’re excited to take this next step – ensuring Dogecoin stays fun, but gains the credibility and backing needed to thrive at scale,” he concluded. Dogecoin launched in 2013 as a light-hearted alternative to Bitcoin. However, it has become one of the most widely recognized and accessible cryptocurrencies. The memecoin is known for its low fees, fast transaction speeds, and increasing merchant adoption. Leading brands like Microsoft and AMC Theatres already accept Dogecoin as a payment method. In a recent study, we reported , Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson proposed that Elon Musk integrate Dogecoin on social media X, formerly Twitter. Hoskinson mentioned that an old Bitcoin 2 roadmap he had written years ago could form the base for DOGE’s inclusion on X. Besides its technical advantages, Dogecoin has built a highly engaged and socially impactful community. Supporters of the memecoin have also helped to drive initiatives ranging from charitable fundraising to financial accessibility efforts. Meanwhile, talks about a potential Dogecoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) approval are growing in the crypto market. As previously mentioned in our report, this follows filings from asset managers like Bitwise, Rex Shares, and Osprey Funds. Bloomberg Senior ETF Analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart have predicted that the SEC will likely recognize these filings. With a pro-crypto administration under Donald Trump, market participants are optimistic about a possible DOGE ETF launch this year. Furthermore, the launch of the first XRP ETF in the US has sparked expectations for a DOGE ETF soon. However, the price of DOGE has yet to reflect the excitement about the ETP launch. DOGE’s price is currently trading at $0.145, down 3.35% from the previous day.

Crypto users are once again targeted. This time, Kaspersky has uncovered a new malware campaign that infiltrates through a fake Microsoft Office plugin on SourceForge. While people are usually suspicious of suspicious links or pirated applications, now even plugins that look legitimate can be a trap. The method is quite neat. This plugin disguises itself as a Microsoft Office add-in that seems to help productivity. But when installed, it infiltrates malware using the “clipboard hijacking” technique. So when users copy a crypto wallet address, the address is automatically replaced with the attacker’s. The end result? Funds are immediately sent to a wallet that is not intended. And all this happens without being noticed. Cybersecurity company Kaspersky: A malware disguised as a Microsoft Office plugin on SourceForge is targeting crypto users, employing a dangerous clipboard hijacking technique. This malware replaces the cryptocurrency wallet address copied by the user with the attacker's address,… — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) April 9, 2025 If you think this only happens on one platform, unfortunately not. At almost the same time, nine Visual Studio Code (VSCode) extensions were also found spreading cryptominer malware. The extensions were uploaded to the Microsoft Marketplace between April 4 and 7, 2025. Disguised as traditional development tools, the extensions secretly infect users with XMRig to mine Ethereum and Monero. Total downloads? More than 300,000 times. Roughly speaking, it’s like you downloaded an extension to help you with your work, but it turns out your CPU is being sucked up to mine crypto for other people. Not only does it waste electricity, it also makes your laptop slow and your hardware’s lifespan decreases faster. On the other hand, CNF previously reported that the Crocodilus malware was also detected, targeting Android devices, especially in Spain and Turkey. This Trojan uses an overlay technique to trick users into providing their crypto wallet recovery phrases. Once the victim grants access, Crocodilus can take full control of the device through the Accessibility Service permission. It’s like giving your house key and ATM password at one time—just because the application looks ordinary. Still not enough? Last February, a report from Kaspersky also mentioned the emergence of malware called SparkCat . This malware infiltrates Android and iOS devices through an application that looks harmless. SparkCat is able to steal important details directly from the victim’s phone through a very neat and difficult to detect data collection method. Furthermore, in November 2024, researchers from Microsoft Incident Response discovered a new remote access trojan (RAT) called StilachiRAT. This malware targets Google Chrome and can scan up to 20 cryptocurrency wallet addons. Following that, it extracts and decrypts the credentials included within them. Simply put, all of your crypto assets that are “safe” in the browser may have been spied on and are now ready to be stolen. This does not mean that all technology or plugins are dangerous. However, it is now clear that many threats come from unexpected places. Fake plugins, malicious extensions, mobile applications that look ordinary, to browser extensions that have been considered safe—all can be entry points for perpetrators. Maybe it’s time for us to change our perspective. Not only be careful of phishing or suspicious emails, but also of things that look normal.
