Overview
- XRP failed to clear $2.42 and slipped below $2.30 and the 100-hour moving average, with near-term supports flagged around $2.20 and $2.15, according to intraday analysis.
- Technical coverage highlights a retest of the high‑timeframe $2.00 level after an impulsive decline from about $2.72, with a hold seen as constructive and a break signaling further downside.
- Ripple’s Swell updates and a 2026 roadmap—featuring a $500 million round at a $40 billion valuation, acquisitions, and a push into infrastructure, custody, and prime brokerage—have recently lifted sentiment and market cap.
- Some analysts identify $1.75–$2.00 as a preferred accumulation zone, with calls for a rebound toward roughly $2.50 if buyers defend the area, though this remains a speculative setup.
- Outlooks split between a recovery path toward $2.50–$2.70 if momentum returns and deeper losses if $1.75 fails, with potential ETF and regulatory developments viewed as longer‑term catalysts that are not yet confirmed.
