The prices of XRP, Solana, and Cardano are moving very hard in what could be a volatile week for cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin is close behind. more than $66,000 while traders are waiting for new macroeconomic data.
While the political risk from the Iran conflict continues to weigh on the markets, investors following the trend may also want to pay attention to key economic events this week.
The QCP team has noted, via a post on X, that the release of this data could lead to the next phase of Bitcoin’s price.
On Monday, researchers at Greeks.live concluded that, in addition to the main economic situation, instability may also depend on the announcements of US President Donald Trump.
Bitcoin briefly led the altcoins higher after Trump announced that the US wants to end its military operation in Iran.
Big events to watch this week
This week’s capital calendar is packed, with QCP Capital analysts pointing out more potential volatility in traditional markets and cryptocurrencies.
For investors, the most important thing is how the incoming data shapes expectations for US growth, inflation, and the path of interest rates—things that continue to drive risky assets, including Bitcoin.
Major events to watch this week:
Mar 31: CAD GDP m/m
Mar 31: US Consumer Confidence, JOLTS Job Openings, Chicago PMI
April 1: S&P Global US Manufacturing PMI, ISM Manufacturing PMI
Apr 2: Claims Unemployed, Trade Fair
Apr 3: Non-Farm PaymentsCauses of restlessness:…

On March 31, attention turns to US Consumer Confidence, JOLTS Job Openings, and the Chicago PMI.
QCP identifies JOLTS as a major contributor to volatility, as signs of labor market freezes or shutdowns directly affect the expectations of the Federal Reserve and the dollar, with spillover effects on crypto flows.
Tokens like XRP, Solana, and Cardano are likely to follow the instructions of Bitcoin.
On April 1, the S&P Global US Manufacturing PMI and ISM Manufacturing PMI will be released, with the ISM reading looking more important.
Less press could fuel expectations of rate cuts and support crypto, while stronger data could reinforce “higher” sentiment and test the digital economy.
A similar dynamic applies to idle data, another well-monitored indicator.
A sharp rise could indicate weakness in the labor market and support Bitcoin as markets adjust to expectations for lower costs.
The week culminates on April 3 with the release of US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP).
QCP sees this as a major event that could ease inflation concerns and strengthen the dollar.
Historically, a strong greenback has pressured Bitcoin, where lower payments can support the digital asset’s market share through expectations of negative policy.
XRP, SOL, and ADA price trends
From a technical perspective, Bitcoin enters this data-heavy period with an encouraging but weak setup on the daily chart.
Traders are balancing economic risks with political tensions, particularly around the Iran conflict and tensions linked to the Strait of Hormuz.
The result is a market that is in the middle of competing drivers of instability, which involves dangerous equipment.
Bitcoin’s sensitivity to incoming data could drive big moves in altcoins.
XRP is holding close to $1.30 support but could slide to $1.20 if BTC weakens following non-farm payrolls data.
On the other hand, a little inflation calculation can help to go to $1.50.
Solana (SOL), trading near $80, is testing for a key move and could face the $70 level.
A strong push, however, could open the way to $100.
Meanwhile, Cardano (ADA) has dropped to $0.24, with the possibility of further declines to $0.22.
A new surge of buyers could see the token attempt to return to the $0.30 resistance level.
