Canton (CC) Price Rises 42% On XRPL Comparisons — Healthy Pullback Next?

The Canton Network price is up almost 42% in seven days and about 12% in 24 hours. Chatter around XRPL (XRP Ledger) comparisons and outperformance has boosted interest, but the Canton price rally now meets possible resistance. A pullback might not be a negative event. It could form the consolidating leg of a larger structure on the chart and set up the next phase. The question now is whether this move becomes a reset for the rally or the start of something bigger. Cup Formation Faces A Pullback, But One Signal Limits Downside Canton Network (CC) might be forming a cup-and-handle pattern on the daily chart. The cup looks complete from the November 12 high to the December 28 high. A handle could now start to form. That handle would be the pullback, and it is happening while the price trades near $0.128 after failing to clear $0.137. RSI (Relative Strength Index), the momentum indicator, has flashed a standard bearish divergence. The Canton price made a higher high between November 12 and December 28, while RSI made a lower high.

In Cantons case, it leans more toward a pullback because capital flow remains supportive. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), which tracks capital strength using price and volume together, stays above the zero line near 0.24. During the last major rally from December 6 to December 21, CMF fell under zero on December 13, and that break killed momentum. That is not happening now. Capital Flow Steady: TradingView As long as CMF stays above zero, the CC price downside can stay limited during the handle formation. A move above 0.40 on CMF would show capital aligning with price and could restart the uptrend. Social Dominance Drops, Hinting Consolidation Is Not Weakness Social chatter peaked on December 28 at about 2.2%, then dropped to roughly 0.16%. Lower chatter does not always equal weakness. Here, it supports the pullback idea, especially after a 42% move in one week. Less attention also means fewer reaction traders. That often helps cup-and-handle structures form cleanly. Social Chatter Getting Weaker: Santiment Ripple comparisons and positives helped drive Canton to its recent local high. Is Canton Bigger Than Ripple?YES in institutional settlement, by massive margins:✅ 112x more daily settlement value ($280B vs $2.5B)✅ 595x larger represented asset base ($391B vs $657M)✅ 6.6x more cumulative volume processed ($6T+ vs $912B YTD)✅ 2x more institutional pic.twitter.com/xfUnmCgMt7 ElonTrades (@ElonTrades) December 28, 2025 It now seems that attention is fading. Therefore, consolidation becomes more likely. A move above the chatter peak in dominance would be an early sign of momentum returning. Key Canton Price Levels To Watch Canton Coin (CC) trades near $0.128. The breakout zone begins at $0.137. A daily close above that level is the first real step. A close above $0.144 confirms a neckline breakout. The first Canton price target is $0.214, which is the post-launch peak. If momentum accelerates, the next target is near $0.34, which is the 141% projection of the cup height from the lowest base to the neckline, then upward from the breakout point. That is the aggressive target if capital flows and prices align. Canton Price Analysis: TradingView If the pullback deepens, $0.118 is the first Canton price support to watch. Below $0.096, the handle fails, and the cup loses structure. The extended downside could reach $0.074 or even $0.058 if liquidity evaporates. For now, as long as CMF stays above zero, the CC price consolidation between $0.118 and $0.096 can remain a handle, not a reversal. Right now, the Canton price is between two realities: a healthy pullback inside a bullish structure or an early breakdown. The next move depends on $0.137 on the upside and $0.118 on the downside.
