Four major altcoins - NEAR, 
XRP, 
Zcash, and Shiba Inu - are currently testing key support levels, according to U.Today. The outcome of these tests could be pivotal for their short-term price trajectories.
NEAR Protocol's Total Value Locked (TVL) has dropped by 13.2% over the past week to $112.9 million, as per DeFiLlama. This decline in TVL reflects the broader market sentiment and the challenges faced by the NEAR ecosystem.
Market data shows that XRP is currently trading at $1.25 with a 24-hour change of +0.14%, while Zcash is at $1150.09, down 6.48% in the last 24 hours. NEAR Protocol has seen a significant 9.42% drop in the same period, trading at $3.86.
The overall crypto market cap stands at $2.65 trillion, with 
Bitcoin down 1.46% in the last 24 hours. The Fear & Greedometer remains at 26, indicating a 'Fear' sentiment among investors.
The next few daily closes will be crucial for these altcoins as they determine whether the support levels will hold or if further declines are likely. Investors will be watching these levels closely for signs of a potential recovery.
Since this brief published about 2 hours ago, XRP (XRP) has moved from ₹118.66$1.25 to ₹118.66$1.25 — +0.00%.
The chart plots XRP's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 XRP ≈ ₹130.93 (about $1.25), down 0.5% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 10.3% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
