The $45 Million Crypto Hammer: Whale Inflow To Binance Threatens To Shatter XRP’s Recovery
XRP is struggling to hold the $1.40 level as persistent selling pressure continues to weigh on market sentiment. Price action remains fragile, reflecting broader uncertainty across the crypto sector. Bitcoin continues to trade within a range, offering limited directional clarity in the short term. This lack of decisive momentum is filtering through the market, leaving altcoins — including XRP — particularly vulnerable to underperformance in the absence of a strong macro trend. Technically, XRP is trading below the shorter- and medium-term moving averages, both of which are now sloping downward and acting as dynamic resistance. The longer-term average remains upward sloping but has flattened noticeably, reflecting fading macro momentum. Until price reclaims the $1.80–$2.00 range with strong volume, upside attempts are likely to face supply pressure near these moving averages.Related Reading
Volume has moderated compared with the impulsive rally phase, suggesting reduced speculative participation. However, recent spikes during sharp selloffs indicate active distribution rather than passive drift.
If the $1.30 support region fails decisively, a deeper retracement toward the $1.10–$1.20 zone becomes plausible. Conversely, stabilization above current levels could open the door to a short-term relief bounce, though broader structure remains fragile.
