Forget Bitcoin, XRP: These 2 Coins Could Explode This Weekend

Chainlink (CRYPTO: LINK) surges 5.17% and Hyperliquid holds near record highs Friday, driven by a major institutional partnership and a fresh Binance listing. Why Chainlink Is Breaking Out Chainlink announced Thursday that Infosys, the $40 billion global IT firm supporting banking infrastructure for more than 1.7 billion customer accounts worldwide, entered a strategic partnership to accelerate institutional on-chain finance. Infosys is standardizing adoption across Chainlink’s full platform stack: CCIP — Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol CRE — Chainlink Runtime Environment ACE — Automated Compliance Engine Proof of Reserve, Data Streams, and Data Feeds Moreover, Chainlink Head of Institutional Andrew McCormick told The Wolf of All Streets podcast that Wall Street’s biggest institutions are moving faster than expected on tokenization. He pointed to Chainlink’s close work with the DTCC, which plans to launch a collateral app chain in Q4 using Chainlink’s runtime environment for margin and loan purposes. Chainlink already handles data and cross-chain infrastructure for Kraken, xStocks, Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD), Ondo, and Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN). McCormick’s math on the opportunity is simple: tokenized equities currently sit at just a few billion dollars against a $150 trillion overall equities market. Even 1% tokenization would move the market from roughly $3 billion to $1.5 trillion. Why Hyperliquid Is Also in Focus Binance listed Hyperliquid as measured by Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (NASDAQ:PURR), opening spot trading pairs HYPE/USDT, HYPE/USDC, and HYPE/TRY at 11:00 UTC on Thursday. Withdrawals opened the following day. Binance applied its seed tag to HYPE, and spot algo orders went live alongside the listing, with trading bots and copy trading following within 24 hours. Where the Charts Stand LINK pushes into the upper boundary of its rising channel Friday, testing the day’s high of $14.15. The EMA structure stays cleanly stacked bullish, with RSI at 67.12 backing the move while nearing overbought territory. Resistance: $14.15 (today’s high), then $15.00 Support: $12.26 (20-day EMA), then $13 (channel’s lower boundary) HYPE pulls back slightly to $91.75 after tagging a high of $94.33, cooling off just below the Bollinger upper band at $99.40. The pullback looks like healthy digestion within a powerful uptrend rather than a reversal, with EMAs fully stacked bullish. Resistance: $99.398 (Bollinger upper band), then $100 Support: $87.428 (20-day EMA), then $86.248 (Bollinger basis) Read Also: XRP Surges 4% as Whales Bought $724 Million In 5 Days: What's Going On?
