The post Plunges 7%, but Will XRPC ETF Rise on Second Day? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Brutal selloff breaks psychological $2.30 floor, erasing recent gains as distribution overwhelms historic XRPC debut. News Background XRP’s worst intraday decline in weeks coincided with a major industry milestone: the launch of the first U.S. spot XRP ETF, Canary Capital’s XRPC, now officially effective on Nasdaq as of 5:30 PM ET. The listing marks a turning point for institutional XRP access, but the debut arrived as broader crypto markets extended their medium-term downtrend. Sentiment remains pinned at fear amid persistent macro risk-off flows. Analysts including FxPro’s Alex Kuptsikevich warn crypto conditions still resemble “a short-term rebound within a larger decline,” with market structure vulnerable to deeper retracements. Large-cap token flows echo that caution, and XRP’s on-chain data showed 110.5M tokens moved between unknown wallets in the hours surrounding the breakdown, amplifying uncertainty during peak volatility. Price Action Summary XRP collapsed 7.3% from $2.48 to $2.30 over the 24-hour session, slicing through major support levels at $2.46, $2.40, and $2.36. The decline spanned a violent $0.23 range, with 157.9M XRP traded — 46% above the 24-hour average. The core breakdown unfolded during a four-minute liquidation cascade from 04:32–04:35 UTC, when price plunged from $2.313 to $2.295 on 6.6M XRP volume — 254% above baseline. The single-minute spike of 4.06M at 04:32 marked the session’s selling climax. Liquidity briefly evaporated as trading flatlined between 04:35–04:36, indicating either halted order flow or severe book thinning. Attempts to stabilize above $2.31 failed, and XRP settled into narrow consolidation near $2.30–$2.32. Technical Analysis The session confirmed a full technical breakdown with clear structural damage: Support/Resistance:• $2.29–$2.30 becomes primary support after breach of psychological floor• Former support at $2.36, $2.40, and $2.47 now act as stacked resistance• Invalidation for bulls requires a decisive reclaim of $2.36 Volume Profile:• Total session volume 157.9M (+46%) confirms institutional-grade distribution•… The post Plunges 7%, but Will XRPC ETF Rise on Second Day? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

The Federal Reserve, the central bank of the United States, is expected to begin slashing interest rates on Wednesday, with analysts expecting a 25 basis point (BPS) cut and a boost to risk asset prices in the long term.Crypto prices are strongly correlated with liquidity cycles, Coin Bureau founder and market analyst Nic Puckrin said. However, while lower interest rates tend to raise asset prices long-term, Puckrin warned of a short-term price correction.  “The main risk is that the move is already priced in, Puckrin said, adding, “hope is high and there’s a big chance of a ‘sell the news’ pullback. When that happens, speculative corners, memecoins in particular, are most vulnerable.”Read more
