Ethereum has stalled below $1,500, while Bitcoin and Ripple have remained in a narrow range. In contrast, gold and the Swiss franc have continued to attract the attention of investors because of their safe-haven roles. This article provides a BTC, XRP, and ETH price prediction and what to expect.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Swiss Franc and Gold are Doing Well as Safe Haven Demand Rises<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Swiss franc (CHF) and gold (XAU) have maintained their role as good assets as concerns about a recession remain. <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/gold-soars-to-new-highs-will-the-bitcoin-price-follow\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gold price has surged<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to $3,330, bringing the year-to-date gains to 25%. It has moved to its <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-04-16\/gold-climbs-to-record-as-expanding-trade-war-aids-haven-demand\">all-time high<\/a> and is one of the best-performing assets this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The CHF has also soared in the past few months. The USD\/CHF exchange rate rose for five consecutive weeks and is trading at its highest level since 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These two assets have surged because investors see them as safe-haven assets. Gold has a long heritage as a safe asset, and is seeing more demand from central banks and institutional investors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the other hand, the CHF is seen as a safe haven because of the strength of the Swiss economy and the fact that the country is neutral on geopolitical issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bitcoin is also gaining its strong credentials as its price has remained at $84,000 this week. It has dropped by 8% while the Nasdaq 100 and S&#038;P 500 indices have fallen by 13% and 12%, respectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_249000\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-249000\" style=\"width: 3574px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-249000\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Bitcoin-vs-SP-500-vs-Nasdaq-100.png\" alt=\"Bitcoin vs S&#038;P 500 vs Nasdaq 100\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1986\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-249000\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bitcoin vs S&#038;P 500 vs Nasdaq 100<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>ETH Price Prediction<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ethereum price has crashed this year. On the 1D chart, it has slumped below the crucial support level at $2,140, the neckline of the triple-top pattern. On the positive side, the coin has formed a giant falling wedge pattern, which happens when there are two falling and converging trendlines.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These two lines are about to converge, meaning that a breakout is possible. If it does, the most likely <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/price-predictions\/ethereum-eth-price-prediction\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ETH price forecast<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">is bullish, with the initial target being at $2,140, the neckline of the triple-top pattern. The bullish outlook will be cancelled if the coin drops below $1,385, the lowest point this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_248999\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-248999\" style=\"width: 3574px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-248999\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ETH-Price-6.png\" alt=\"ETH Price Chart\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1986\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-248999\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ETH Price Chart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>BTC Price Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bitcoin price has remained in a tight range above $84,000, after it formed a double-bottom pattern at $76,650 in March and April. It is attempting to move above the 50-day moving average.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A move above that level would confirm the bullish outlook of the double-bottom and point to more gains to the neckline at $88,745. A surge above that level means that the BTC price may surge above $90,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The alternative scenario is where it pulls back and retests the double-bottom at $76,650.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_248998\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-248998\" style=\"width: 3574px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-248998\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/BTC-Price-4.png\" alt=\"BTC Price Chart\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1986\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-248998\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTC Price Chart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>XRP Price Forecast<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Like BTC, the XRP price has remained in a tight range in the past few days. It has stalled at a key resistance level where the descending trendline connects the highest swings since January. Also, the coin has found a strong resistance at the 50-day moving average.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_248997\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-248997\" style=\"width: 3574px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-248997\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-Price-8.png\" alt=\"XRP Price Chart\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1986\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-248997\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">XRP Price Chart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Therefore, a strong <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/markets\/how-high-can-xrp-price-go-if-swift-integrates-with-ripple-this-week\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">XRP price rally<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">will be confirmed if it rises above the descending trendline and the 50-day moving average.
