XRP is approaching a technical setup known as a golden cross, according to CoinDesk’s day-ahead market look for Sept. 18, 2026. The development places XRP among the crypto assets drawing attention as market focus shifts toward altcoins. CoinDesk highlighted XRP alongside other related digital assets, including AltLayer (ALT), Cronos (CRO), Harmony (ONE) and Litecoin (LTC). The report also referenced spot gold (XAU_SPOT) in its broader market coverage. A golden cross is a market indicator based on moving averages, but the supplied report does not provide specific price levels, timing for the signal or a forecast for XRP. Traders and investors are therefore watching whether the setup develops while monitoring the wider altcoin segment. The item was published by CoinDesk on Sept. 18, 2026.
