Cryptocurrency Price Forecast: The Easter holiday caused a slight rally in the crypto market, with major assets Bitcoin and Ethereum recording gains of 1-3%. This week has seen high volatility across most of the major cryptocurrencies, creating narrow ranges that indicate a lack of clear buyer and seller advantages.
However, with the most anticipated crypto event, the Bitcoin halving, scheduled for next month in April, this consolidation is likely to transition into a continuation of the uptrend. This development and positive inflows into the Spot BTC ETF could accelerate demand for Bitcoin and broader market sentiment.

Amid the current market consolidation, ETH price is moving within a narrow range between $3,675 and $3,470. While the sideways movement initially reflected investor uncertainty, the 4-hour chart revealed it to be part of an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern.
ETH price is currently trading at $3,610, with an intraday increase of 2.9%. Ethereum's market capitalization is currently valued at $433 billion, with trading volume of $10.18 billion over the past 24 hours.
Under the influence of the chart pattern, Ethereum price may break through the neckline resistance, providing buyers with a good springboard to chase the $4,300 target.

2) XRP
Ripple's digital asset, XRP, is designed for fast and cheap cross-border payments and is characterized by its low transaction fees and quick settlement times.
Over the past two weeks, XRP price has been swinging in uncertainty evidenced by narrow range formation and candlestick rejection at both ends. However, the consolidation remains above his two-month trend line, indicating that buyers are maintaining a steady uptrend.
Currently, XRP has a market capitalization of $34.3 billion, ranking it as the sixth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. If the market witnesses a new bullish sentiment, the XRP price could break through the $0.667 overhead barrier and re-challenge the $0.744 high.
Conversely, a breakdown below the lower trendline of the pattern could trigger a significant correction for this altcoin.
