XRP ETF Inflows Rise as Analysts Reassess Long-Term Structure

XRP has also seen renewed institutional interest this week as the US-based XRP exchange-traded funds for the spot market received a net inflow of $3.42 million on Friday, January 23. This is disclosed by crypto analyst Crypto News Hunters. This comes at a time when the US crypto market environment is undergoing change.

The spot ETFs are typically seen as a sentiment indicator over a longer time frame, as they are a direct proxy to the underlying instrument.

While a single day’s movement in capital may not be a significant indicator of a larger trend, a continued movement in capital can be beneficial to the liquidity, stability of prices, and its position as a prominent digital asset in terms of attracting interest from institutions.

XRP Long-Term Price Action Reflects Repeating Behavior

At the same time, long-term technical analysts are also analyzing the token’s price structure at a macro level. An evaluation of the token by EGRAG CRYPTO, a market analyst, on Saturday, January 24, showed that the asset is entering a well-known historical period in its price structure, a long time of price compression, and a subsequent price expansion.

According to the analysis, the price movement of the token has completed three macro formations in the past. These have been characterized by significant periods of consolidation before the final breakouts.

Moreover, the close correlation among the movements has prompted analysts to assert the notion that the price movement history of the asset is not based on random fluctuations.

XRP Enters Fourth Macrostructure

The focus has now moved to the fourth structure that is believed to be developing on the macro scale. EGRAG CRYPTO points out that the formation has a similar compression time; a breakout could push the price toward $42.

There is even symmetry to the earlier structures, and the price action of the token might be part of an established framework rather than entering an unknown territory.

However, analysts point out that this framework is more indicative of probability rather than certainty. While there had been talk of long-term upside potential and the speculative targets of various players in the market, this framework is more indicative of the outcome.
