Based on the triangle’s measured move, the downside target stands near $0.95, representing roughly a 29% decline from current levels. A further break below the $1.20 support zone would expose the February low of $1.11, with psychological support resting near $1.00. On higher time frames, chart projections suggest that $0.80 could come into play if selling pressure accelerates.

XRP Exchange Inflows Point to Rising Sell Pressure

On-chain data shows more than 472 million XRP, valued at approximately $652 million, moved to Binance over the past week. Exchange balances have risen from 2.55 billion to 2.73 billion tokens in less than three weeks, a 7% increase.

Large inflows to trading platforms are often interpreted as a sign of potential selling activity, increasing short-term downside risk if demand fails to absorb the added supply.
