Xrp rose higher in Tuesday’s session, as prices continued to move away from a long-term support point. Overall, sentiment in cryptocurrencies remained largely bearish, with the global market cap down 0.34% as of writing. Polygon was also in the green at the time of writing.
XRP, formerly ripple, was a notable gainer on Tuesday, as the token continued to move away from a recent support point.
Following a low of $0.3648 to start the week, XRP/USD rose to an intraday high of $0.3751 earlier in the day.
The move resulted in XRP bouncing from a long-term price floor at $0.3650, following a recent four-day losing streak.
From the chart, it appears that this took place as the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) broke out of its own ceiling at 43.00.
As of writing, the index is now tracking at 43.97, with the next visible resistance point at 45.00.
Should this ceiling be hit, there is a strong chance that XRP will be trading at, or above, the $0.3800 mark.
Polygon (MATIC) also rose higher in today’s session, a day after bulls rejected a breakout at a key price level.
MATIC/USD moved to a peak of $1.17 on Tuesday, which comes after a bottom at $1.12 the day prior.
As a result of this move, polygon bulls pushed prices further away from a recent floor at $1.10.
Overall, it appears that this rebound coincides with the RSI moving away from a recent floor at 39.00.
Currently, price strength is tracking at 41.17, with the nearest point of resistance being at the 45.00 mark.
Bulls could likely target this point, and should they reach it, MATIC could move above $1.20.

FTX Debtors and affiliate Alameda Research Ltd. have filed a lawsuit against Grayscale Investments, seeking injunctive relief to unlock $9 billion in value for shareholders of the Grayscale Bitcoin and Ethereum Trusts. The debtors allege that “Grayscale has extracted over $1.3 billion in exorbitant management fees in violation of the trust agreements.”
In a press release issued March 6, 2023, FTX debtors and Alameda Research, the company’s now-defunct quantitative trading firm, announced that Alameda is suing digital currency fund manager Grayscale Investments. Alameda seeks injunctive relief to allow redemptions and reduce fees associated with the Grayscale Bitcoin and Ethereum Trusts. The debtors allege that Grayscale and its management team continue to “breach trust agreements and fiduciary duties.”
Alameda also argues that Grayscale’s self-imposed redemption ban prevents the “realization of approximately $9 billion of value.” The firm’s CEO and chief restructuring officer, John J. Ray III, issued a statement regarding the lawsuit against Grayscale, stating: “We will continue to use every tool we can to maximize recoveries for FTX customers and creditors.” The FTX debtors restructuring officer added:
Our goal is to unlock value that we believe is currently being suppressed by Grayscale’s self-dealing and improper redemption ban. FTX customers and creditors will benefit from additional recoveries, along with other Grayscale Trust investors that are being harmed by Grayscale’s actions.
The lawsuit against Grayscale follows Alameda’s lawsuit against Voyager Digital at the end of January 2023. The complaint alleged that Voyager received preferential transfers of property from Alameda Research, and the firm sought to recover approximately $445.8 million from the bankrupt entity. Voyager agreed to set aside the $445 million to pay Alameda, and both parties agreed to participate in nonbinding mediation.
The press release from FTX debtors alleges that for years, Grayscale has “hidden behind contrived excuses” to prevent shareholders from redeeming their shares. It also noted that the Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) has been trading 50% below net asset value (NAV). GBTC statistics on Tuesday show a current 42.11% discount to NAV.
“If Grayscale reduced its fees and stopped improperly preventing redemptions, the FTX debtors’ shares would be worth at least $550 million, approximately 90% more than the current value of the FTX debtors’ shares today,” the complaint against Grayscale concludes.
What do you think will be the outcome of the lawsuit against Grayscale Investments? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.

PRESS RELEASE. Bucharest, Romania,7.03.2023 – Bware Labs, a leading blockchain infrastructure provider, is launching today the mainnet of their blockchain API platform, Blast.
Blast is a blockchain API platform, designed to provide easy blockchain access to the most relevant networks in the blockchain space. Using Blast, developers are able to get RPC, REST and WebSocket access to an ever-growing number of blockchain networks in just a couple of simple steps.
With the launch of Blast’s mainnet, Bware Labs brings about a new generation of blockchain APIs. The speed and reliability of the API platform will rely mainly on the platform’s Proof of Quality protocol, which refers to enabling node owners to permissionlessly join the Blast Protocol as Node Providers, under the condition that their nodes can satisfy the platform’s performance and data integrity standards.
To participate in Blast’s protocol, Node Providers will need to stake tokens, while all other users can earn an APY by delegating to a Node Provider using Blast’s delegation explorer. Blast’s token holders will also play a critical role in governing the platform’s future development initiatives and improvements for the Decentralized Infrastructure Protocol.
Moreover, according to Bware Labs CEO Flavian Manea, Mainnet brings the chance for the community to participate in the protocol by delegating the company’s INFRA tokens to available staking pools.
“The biggest challenge is being true to your word when it comes to what you want to bring to the table. Maintaining above industry-level standards in terms of quality while running the platform in a decentralized manner is definitely not easy” states Flavian. “In order to tackle that we had to find our own routes and methods, that could ensure that the nodes on Blast present the required performance and that would not prohibit the scalability potential of Blast. Now, decentralization is in sight – all hands on deck lads, let’s launch this ship!”
Blast’s mainnet launch is part of Bware Labs’ ongoing commitment to support Web3 developers throughout their entire blockchain journey by providing high-quality solutions that can help them scale their products faster and easier.
The mainnet launch will roll out in stages, and following the end of the Houston Testnet, Bware Labs will start onboarding the testnet participants, while the permissionless onboarding for anyone who wants to become a Node Provider in Blast will come in the following two weeks, along with the launch of the INFRA token and the possibility to delegate it in available staking pools.
Keep your eyes on the announcements from Bware Labs, and be prepared to jump in one of the biggest blockchain infrastructure providers of the year.
About Bware Labs
Bware Labs is creating an infrastructure and development ecosystem to support Web3 builders throughout their entire blockchain journey. The company aims to play a decisive role in worldwide blockchain adoption.
