Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP جذب Whale Buying as Altcoins Signal Extreme Oversold Conditions

Wealthy crypto investors are concentrating fresh buying on major assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP (XRP), signaling a preference for liquidity and brand recognition amid a choppy market. At the same time, several smaller tokens have plunged to single-digit readings on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), flashing ‘extreme oversold’ conditions that could set the stage for heightened short-term volatility.

According to a snapshot of high-net-worth investor activity released Monday UTC (based on the prior day’s data in Korea), Bitcoin (BTC) led purchase interest with an 82% buy-weighting among tracked assets. Ethereum (ETH) followed at 79%, while XRP (XRP) ranked third at 69%. Solana (SOL) posted 48%, and Ethereum Classic (ETC) came in at 35%.

The skew toward large-cap coins suggests ‘conservative positioning’ remains intact, even as traders navigate uncertain price action. In practice, major tokens tend to attract capital during risk-off intervals because they generally offer deeper order books, tighter spreads, and broader institutional and retail participation than smaller-cap alternatives.

On the technical side, an RSI screen taken at 12:00 p.m. local time in Korea (03:00 a.m. UTC) highlighted several assets with severely depressed momentum readings. Sahara AI (SAHARA) registered an RSI of 1.90 while falling 1.87% on the day. Contentos (COS) showed an RSI of 5.27 alongside a 3.85% decline. Humanity (H) printed an RSI of 10.32 after dropping 9.33%.

Other tokens also appeared weak on RSI, though price action was mixed. Helium (HNT) showed an RSI of 14.61 but rose 4.07%, suggesting a tentative rebound despite lingering oversold conditions. Superwalk (GRND) recorded an RSI of 20.61 and was down 2.27%.

RSI is a commonly used momentum indicator that compares average gains and losses over a set period to gauge whether an asset is overheated or depressed. A reading below 30 is typically interpreted as ‘oversold’, sometimes prompting speculation about a technical bounce. Market participants, however, generally treat RSI as a supporting signal rather than a standalone trigger, often looking for confirmation through ‘volume expansion’, broader risk appetite, and—especially in crypto—Bitcoin’s directional trend.

The divergence between concentrated buying in mega-cap assets and extreme oversold signals in select altcoins underscores a market split between capital seeking safety and pockets of speculative stress. If volatility persists, deep-RSI names may see sharper swings in both directions as traders react to liquidity conditions and shifting sentiment.
