Overview
- XRP briefly fell below about $1.12 on heavy volume over the weekend before buyers quickly drove a rebound back toward $1.15, leaving price confined to the $1.10–$1.30 band.
- Visible XRP balances on centralized exchanges have fallen to roughly 1.6 billion tokens, the lowest level in seven years, which makes the market more sensitive to modest buying or selling.
- Investment products tied to XRP logged about $10.66 million in weekly net inflows and have accumulated roughly $1.45 billion since launch, providing steady institutional demand.
- Large holders distributed more than 30 million XRP over a recent five-day span, creating a tangible selling risk that offsets ETF buying and keeps the market fragile.
- Traders are focused on short-term technical thresholds—reclaiming $1.15–$1.20 would support a recovery while a sustained break below $1.08 would open the door to deeper tests after a roughly 68% retracement from the prior cycle peak.
