Oh, XRP, the cryptocurrency that’s as reliable as a toaster in a hurricane. After a 22

Ripple Analysis

By Shayan, who’s clearly never heard of the phrase “don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”

The Daily Chart

On the daily timeframe, XRP has decisively broken below both the 100-day and 200-day moving averages. That’s like your ex breaking up with you on a Tuesday – it’s just a reminder that you’re not as cool as you thought. The drop from the $3.1K-$3.2K resistance zone accelerated once the price breached the ascending trendline that had supported the rally since early 2025. 🤡

Currently, the asset is hovering around the $2.3 region, which overlaps with the 200-day MA and the lower boundary of the wedge pattern. This area serves as the final technical buffer before the price potentially revisits the institutional demand zone between $2 and $1.3. Because nothing says “investment” like hoping a bunch of long-term holders will suddenly feel generous. 😂

The broader ascending channel still remains technically intact, but RP must quickly reclaim the $2.6-$2.7 area, now acting as resistance, to invalidate the bearish breakdown. Failure to do so would reinforce bearish continuation toward the deeper institutional zone mentioned above. Because nothing says “optimism” like assuming the market will suddenly turn around because you *really* need it to. 🙏

The 4-Hour Chart

The 4-hour structure confirms the breakdown of short-term market structure and trendline confluence. Following the sharp rejection from $2.8, RP failed to recover the broken diagonal support, which has now flipped into resistance. Like a bad relationship, it’s just getting worse. 💔

The price is currently consolidating above the $2.2-$2.3 short-term support range, but momentum remains weak, and buyers have yet to demonstrate sufficient strength for a meaningful reversal. If this level holds, XRP could attempt a relief rally back toward $2.55-$2.6, where the confluence of prior support and moving averages lies. Because nothing says “hope” like hoping a bunch of moving averages will magically save your portfolio. 🧠

However, a decisive close below $2.2 would likely accelerate the decline toward the $1.8-$1.3 institutional demand zone, where a stronger reaction from long-term participants is expected. Because nothing says “confidence” like expecting a group of people who’ve already lost their shirts to suddenly come to your rescue. 🤷‍♀️
