Crypto Watchlist: Pi Network, XRP, and Sui Lead This Week’s Top Picks

• IPO speculation, ETF developments, token unlocks, and key technical patterns place these three projects at the center of investor focus.

• Regulatory clarity and real-world asset tokenization strategies position XRP as a strong contender for further price appreciation.

This week, Crypto News Flash (CNF) picks Pi Network, XRP, and Sui as the Crypto Watchlist, as they stand out for their strong catalysts, according to recent market conditions.

As for Ripple (XRP), according to a recent tweet by Real World Asset Watchlist, it was spotted that Ripple is preparing for an IPO and making a major push into Real World Assets (RWA), launching RLUSD to tokenize real estate, commodities, and more.

Unlike the CNF March Weekly Crypto Watchlist, which included Solana, Polkadot, and Cronos — reacting strongly to technical levels and strategic moves amid rising recession concerns — in this article, these three watchlist picks lead this week’s top choices due to the following:

Pi Network: Anticipation Builds Amid Listing Speculations

Pi Network (PI) continues to capture attention as it trades around $0.6084, with a price drop of 4.06% in the past week. While it hasn’t participated in recent market rallies, the community buzzes with anticipation over potential exchange listings.

As previously highlighted by CNF, an analyst has observed that Pi Network has made significant progress in the area of compliance, coupled with its fundamentals and community strength.

XRP: Navigating Technical Patterns and Regulatory Developments

Analysts offer varied predictions for XRP’s trajectory. Egrag Crypto suggests that, based on Fibonacci and Elliott Wave analyses, XRP could reach $15 by May 2025. Conversely, some caution that failure to break above current resistance levels could lead to a retest of support around $1.94.

On the regulatory front, the conclusion of the SEC lawsuit against Ripple has removed a significant overhang, potentially paving the way for increased adoption and price appreciation.

Sui: Monitoring Post-Unlock Performance

Sui (SUI) has experienced a notable rally, reaching highs of $3.72 — a strong increase of 66.70% in the past week. However, with a substantial token unlock scheduled, releasing $120 million worth of tokens, the market watches closely for potential impacts on price stability.

Such unlocks can introduce volatility, and investors are advised to monitor support levels around $2.81, which corresponds to the neckline of a recent double-bottom pattern.

Among the three, Ripple (XRP), as the leading or top 4 cryptocurrency, stands out. As of now, XRP is trading at $2.29 USD, reflecting a 2.70% increase over the past day and 8.76% over the past week. See XRP price chart below.
