The crypto market is green on Tuesday. Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana prices are all moving higher, though the gains are small and steady.
The total crypto market is up 1.14% and sits near $2.88 trillion. Traders seem cautious but a bit hopeful.
Here is where the four coins stand right now.

Ethereum is the strongest of the group today. Solana is the slowest, but it is still in the green.
There is no single big trigger. Instead, a few smaller things are helping at once.
ETF money is still coming in. Chart patterns look decent for Bitcoin and Ethereum. And market mood remains positive, even if it cooled a little from last week.
That said, some of the ETF numbers have dropped. More on that below.
Yes, but the pace has slowed. Bitcoin spot ETFs took in $31 million on Monday. Last Friday, the number was $134 million.
Last week alone, US-listed Bitcoin ETFs pulled in $2.4 billion. That shows strong interest from big investors.
Ethereum spot ETFs also cooled. They saw $17 million in inflows on Monday, down from $87 million on Friday. Total inflows are near $14 billion, and assets under management are close to $18 billion.
Two other US-listed spot ETFs also posted smaller numbers:

Data source: As per SoSoValue. The report does not clearly name which coins these two ETFs track.
Slower inflows can mean prices pause and move sideways for a while. Not a crash signal, just less push.
The index reads 73 today, which means "Greed." It was 74 yesterday and 78 last week. That earlier reading was "Extreme Greed." A month ago it stood at 69.
So mood is still positive, but a little less heated than seven days ago.
Bitcoin is close. It is trading just above $84,000 and pushing toward a breakout.
Some traders see a double bottom pattern on the chart. BTC tested that pattern, found support, and is now moving back up.
If $84,000 holds as support, the retest could give buyers an entry before the next move. The pattern's target is $100,000. That is a chart target, not a promise.
Ethereum may be forming a bull flag on the lower timeframes. That is a pause pattern that sometimes comes before another leg up.
The level to watch on the downside is $2,640. As long as it holds, the setup favors bulls.
On the upside, $2,700 matters. An hourly close above it could confirm a breakout and open the way toward $3,000. If $2,640 breaks, the idea weakens.
Solana has ETF support behind it. US spot Solana ETFs have collected about 4.37 million SOL since July 13. That is worth roughly $450 million.
It also marks 11 straight weeks of net inflows. Some traders are eyeing $150 as the next area to watch.
Solana is still hovering near $120, so it has some distance to cover.
On the daily chart, XRP sits above all four major moving averages. It also trades inside a widening, megaphone-style pattern. That pattern stays valid while price holds above $1.45 to $1.46.
The RSI reads 57.73, and its signal line is at 58.08. That is mildly bullish and not overheated.

The September high is near $1.66. The late August spike touched about $1.70. Sellers showed up at both spots before.
It depends on which level breaks first.
Bullish case: A move above $1.55 to $1.60 could open the path to $1.65 to $1.70. After that, traders may look at $1.80.
Bearish case: A firm break below the 20 EMA near $1.46 would weaken the setup. A retest of $1.37 to $1.40 could follow, where the 50 EMA and 200 EMA sit close together.
Sideways case: Price could also just chop between $1.46 and $1.60 for a while.
Nobody knows which one plays out. Watching the levels is more useful than guessing.
According to CoinGlass data, 95,170 traders were liquidated in the past 24 hours. Total liquidations came in at $392.37 million.
Long traders lost more over the full day. But the picture flips in the shorter windows.

In the last hour and the last four hours, short sellers took the bigger hit. That fits with prices ticking up today, since rising prices force bearish bets to close.
Ethereum saw the most liquidations at $86.89 million. Bitcoin followed with $70.57 million. Other big names included ZEC at $40.20 million, NEAR at $14.33 million, and SOL at $12.23 million.
The largest single liquidation happened on Binance in the ETHUSDT pair. It was worth $11.82 million.
A few simple things stand out.
Whether ETF inflows pick up again or keep fading
Bitcoin holding $84,000 as support
Ethereum closing an hour above $2,700
XRP staying above $1.45 to $1.46
The Fear and Greed Index, in case it slides further from 73
Liquidation numbers, since sharp swings can trigger more forced closes
Crypto moves fast. A calm day can flip quickly, so plan for both sides.
