XRP futures markets saw open interest climb from $1.39 billion to $1.62 billion alongside a breakout above a multi-week symmetrical triangle and the $1.46 resistance area. At the same time, indicators such as a sharply lower NVT ratio and a Funding Rate near 0.01268 point to stronger network activity and increasingly bullish derivatives positioning, with traders watching the $1.64 resistance zone.

On March 16, Solana marked its sixth anniversary while SOL traded around $94.43 after recent double‑digit weekly gains, with daily volume above $5.4 billion. Analysts highlight support zones between $76 and $90 and see key resistance near $95–$96, $100, $125 and $250, with some chart projections extending toward the $500 region if a breakout confirms.

PEPE is trading around $0.00000405 after rebounding from roughly $0.00000337, marking a gain of about 20% amid strengthening bullish momentum. Analysts highlight a large falling wedge pattern with support near $0.000003–$0.0000035 and whale accumulation of trillions of tokens in this demand zone, suggesting a potential move toward $0.00003, which implies roughly 606% upside from the current consolidation area.

As the crypto market recovers and Bitcoin moves beyond $74,000, some altcoins are entering overbought territory based on RSI readings above 70 on multiple timeframes. Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (FET) has jumped 16% to $0.21, while Render (RENDER) trades around $1.8, with both tokens showing stretched momentum on 12-hour and 24-hour charts. These technical conditions suggest fading short-term strength and a higher risk of pullbacks for traders managing entries and position sizes.

On March 10, 2026, a 2.85% underpricing of wstETH collateral on Aave led to around $27 million in forced liquidations, according to Chaos Labs. The discrepancy came from a misconfigured CAPO risk-oracle module that briefly valued wstETH at about 1.19 ETH instead of its market level near 1.23 ETH, pushing some borrowers below required collateral thresholds.

On 16 March 2026, Venus Protocol on BNB Chain disclosed that a flash loan exploit in January 2026 led to an estimated $3.7 million loss after a vault accounting error was abused. The incident came amid a broader wave of flash loan and oracle-manipulation attacks across DeFi, alongside large‑scale thefts linked to North Korean operators infiltrating crypto firms. Protocols are responding with enhanced monitoring, governance interventions, and research into AI‑driven defenses and more robust oracle designs.

Dogecoin jumped around 6% over the last day, lifting its valuation back above $15 billion as whale addresses reportedly bought 470 million DOGE in 72 hours. Their holdings have climbed to nearly 36 billion tokens, while some analysts argue a break above $0.13 could open the door toward $0.50, even as an elevated RSI hints at possible short-term pullbacks.

Solana is trading around $93 after a 7% rise since Sunday, with traders focusing on the key $100 psychological resistance. Weekly net inflows into Solana investment products have reached $10.70 million and futures open interest has climbed to $5.79 billion, highlighting strong institutional participation. If SOL clears resistance near $94 and holds above key moving averages, analysts see room for a potential move toward $100 and beyond, while a failure could send the price back toward the $80 area.
