Bitcoin and Ether prices fall, Ripple XRP gains following launch of CBDC platform

Bitcoin and Ether experienced a drop in prices on Friday morning in Asia, with Litecoin also recording losses. However, XRP was the only cryptocurrency in the top 10 non-stablecoin category to see gains, following the launch of its new central bank digital currency platform by Ripple. U.S. equity futures rose after a strong rally in regular trading on Thursday, with positive earnings reports and debt ceiling talks playing a role. Despite the dip in Bitcoin's price, financial analyst Tone Vays believes that the halving cycle will cause Bitcoin to rise again.
