Crypto Market Sees Sharp Reversal as Q3 Rally Gains Momentum

Bitcoin and its top counterparts Ethereum and XRP have made significant gains in August, but will this momentum continue until the end of Q3, 2026?

The crypto market has seen a sharp reversal in momentum, with Bitcoin gaining nearly 25%, Ethereum surging more than 30%, and XRP rising over 45%.

This comeback follows a difficult first half of 2026, where all three cryptos faced massive selling pressure throughout Q1 and Q2.

However, as the market enters its final weeks of Q3, traders are assessing whether this latest rally can extend until the end of the quarter.

The key resistance zones for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP have been identified, with the price needing to overcome $80,000 to $82,000, $2,500 to $2,550 MA barrier range, and defend the $1.30 to $1.35 support range respectively.
