CZ said he has maintained a bullish view on Bitcoin for a long time, and because he posts five to 10 times a day, messages published just ahead of positive market news may simply be coincidental.

Veteran trader Peter Brandt said XRP’s low fees are notable, but its usefulness for transactions alone does not justify a high market valuation. In a recent Cointelegraph interview, Brandt distinguished Bitcoin as a store-of-value asset and XRP as a transaction-focused cryptocurrency. While Brandt said XRP can be used for efficient, low-cost transfers, he argued that utility as a medium of exchange does not necessarily lead people to hold the asset over the long term, citing the dollar as an example. Brandt added that cryptocurrencies should be evaluated by function, separating transaction assets, store-of-value assets, and platforms such as Ethereum. He did not provide a specific price target for XRP in the interview.

Morgan Stanley has withdrawn its previous weak-dollar outlook and now expects dollar strength to continue through mid-2027, BlockBeats reported. The bank expects the U.S. Dollar Index to rise to 104 from around 101, while the euro-dollar exchange rate falls to $1.10 from about $1.14. Morgan Stanley said expectations for additional Federal Reserve rate hikes, a resilient U.S. economy and elevated energy prices would support the U.S. rate advantage. It expects 25-basis-point hikes in December and March, followed by the benchmark rate holding at 4.25%-4.5% through the end of 2027. Morgan Stanley added that high U.S. Treasury yields are weighing on global risk appetite, while Europe’s political uncertainty, including France’s 2027 presidential election, could further weaken the euro and strengthen the dollar.
