The price of XRP slips once again, losing major support level, leading traders and holders to grow anxious over possibly lower altcoin price levels. Presently, one XRP enthusiast and crypto trader shares a long post exploring the next possible moves for the popular asset. In detail, bullish conviction for XRP wavers as the popular altcoin falls under critical monthly support.
Bullish Conviction for XRP Wavers as the Altcoin Price Falls
According to CoinMarketCap analytics, the price of XRP is currently trading at the $1.87 price range, showing that the price of the popular altcoin is down over 7.5% in the past 24 hours. The asset currently boasts a total market cap of $113,769,514,957.34 with a 24-hour trading volume of $2,563,493,280.52.

For the first time in 13 months XRP has closed under this monthly support at $1.95 on the 2 week chart. It’s the second time on the weekly this has happened with April tariffs being the first.
The technical target of this break down is 90c.

As we can see from the post above, the post highlights how for the first time in 13 months, XRP has closed under this monthly support at $1.95 on the 2-week chart. It’s the second time on the weekly this has happened with April tariffs being the first. The technical target of this breakdown is $0.90. If XRP were to show bullish momentum again, the asset needs to get back above $1.95.
The post then mentions how XRP tested this earlier with a rejection and another lower high. This points to a possibility of the XRP price chart being bearish, which will be more likely if XRP loses the rectangle. Now, XRP’s greatest hope is that the asset will hold its monthly chart, and that the price of XRP will go back above $1.95 within 9 days. The post then advises traders on hedging risks.
XRP Price Dips Under Critical Monthly Support
One option is to sell a share of XRP to hedge bets against losing half the bag’s value and then buy back once the $1.95 price level is reclaimed. However, for those with long-term faith in the asset, the post encourages accumulating more XRP as the price of the altcoin dips to lower prices. Key buy levels are suggested at $1.61, $1.42, $0.90, and finally $0.75, the initial breakout.
Finally, the post highlights a rectangle resistance and the fact that there is still a massive bullish divergence yet to play out on multiple timeframes. The post concludes with hope for the price of XRP to recover from here and this lead to a breakdown and capitulation like it did in April. Despite this, the analyst calls for a cautious trading approach for 2 weeks due to the latest weekly close below support.

XRP Surges 24,602% Despite Ripple's Ongoing Sales — Debate Reignites Over Token Dump Claims
Viral thread claims Ripple sells XRP monthly to fund operations and dilute holders. It cites 100B total supply, 55B locked, 1B/month release, 70–80% relocked, and 200–300M XRP for ops (~$400M/mo); critics say price tracks Bitcoin and escrow dilution fades.
Abstract: The article examines claims that Ripple systematically sells XRP to fund operations, detailing the tokenomics (100B XRP, 55B in escrow with 1B/mo release and relocking, 200–300M for ops) and presenting counterarguments that XRP price movements align more with Bitcoin, not ongoing sales, while escrow shrinkage reduces future dilution and XRP has posted large gains since inception.
