XRP price news: Ripple-linked token hits 15-week low

XRP slid to its weakest level in more than three months as heavy selling overpowered signs of exchange outflows, leaving the market stuck between two competing signals. Tokens moving off exchanges usually point to accumulation, but price action is saying sellers still have control whenever XRP tries to recover.

News Background

• More than 25 million XRP left exchanges after a large inflow earlier in the week, suggesting some investors used the drop to move tokens into longer-term storage.

• Spot XRP ETFs recorded fresh inflows, bringing cumulative flows to about $1.42 billion, though that demand has not yet been enough to reverse the downtrend.

• Leverage was heavily flushed during May, with most high-risk long positions already liquidated as XRP bounced from the $1.28 area.

Price Action Summary

• XRP dropped from $1.3384 to $1.3208, hitting a 15-week low during the session.
• The key breakdown came on 55.03 million in volume, which pushed price through support near $1.3320.
• Selling later extended toward $1.314 before a modest bounce brought XRP back toward $1.32.

Technical Analysis

• The key issue is that accumulation signals are not yet showing up in price. Exchange outflows are constructive, but XRP continues to get sold into recovery attempts.
• The breakdown below $1.3320 keeps the short-term structure weak, with $1.34 now acting as the first level buyers need to reclaim.
• A large short-liquidation cluster sits between $1.34 and $1.40, meaning a sharp move higher is possible if XRP can break back into that range.
• Until then, the tape remains defensive, with sellers still controlling the lower highs.

What traders should watch

• $1.31 is the immediate support. Losing it would put $1.28 and then $1.20 back in play.
• $1.34 is the first recovery level. A reclaim could trigger momentum toward $1.37 and $1.40.
• The setup is unstable because exchange outflows point one way while price action points the other. One side will have to give.
