XRP Price Risks Drop Below $1 as Bearish Technical Signals Emerge

XRP is facing renewed downside pressure after sliding nearly 63% from its multi-year high of $3.66 to trade around $1.40. Recent chart patterns suggest the correction may not be over, with some analysts warning that a move below $1 remains a realistic possibility in the weeks ahead.

Despite technical weakness, on-chain and institutional data present a mixed picture. Spot XRP exchange-traded funds have accumulated approximately $1.23 billion in net inflows since launch, with assets under management surpassing $1 billion. Recent sessions have recorded consecutive daily inflows, suggesting continued institutional interest.

Additional pressure emerged after XRP was rejected near the 200-week moving average around $1.40, reinforcing the short-term bearish outlook.

Institutional Demand and Whale Activity Offer Support

Whale transactions exceeding $100,000 have climbed to four-month highs, while active XRP Ledger addresses surged to 78,727 within an eight-hour period — the strongest reading in six months.

While a corrective retracement below $1 remains possible, sustained inflows and accumulation trends could help stabilize price action if broader market conditions improve.

The coming weeks may prove decisive. A break below $1.12 could open the door to deeper support near $0.70, while holding current levels alongside steady ETF inflows may limit further downside. Traders are closely watching whether institutional demand can offset mounting technical pressure.
