XRP has broken down from critical support levels, joining the broader crypto market in a wave of selling pressure driven by growing macroeconomic uncertainty. As risk sentiment weakens, bulls are struggling to defend key zones that previously held firm. Now, the focus shifts to reclaiming a pivotal level that could reverse the recent bearish trend and restore some confidence to investors.

Despite the harsh market conditions and price volatility, on-chain data reveals a promising development beneath the surface. According to Glassnode, the XRP network has reached a new all-time high of 6.26 million addresses holding 1 XRP or more. This metric signals growing adoption and distribution, even as prices slide — a potential bullish divergence that often precedes long-term strength.


The surge in small wallet growth suggests that retail investors are still entering the market, seeing value in XRP at current levels. While the short-term price action remains uncertain, the expanding network base may point to renewed demand once market conditions stabilize.


Is this trend a sign of strength or simply a temporary reaction to lower prices? In a market full of fear, such network milestones could serve as a glimmer of optimism for XRP’s long-term outlook. XRP Holds Below $2 As Analysts Split on What Comes Next


XRP is now facing a critical test just below the $1.80 mark — a level that many analysts view as the last key support before a potential steep decline. Market sentiment remains fragile, with bulls under immense pressure and bears steadily gaining ground. If XRP fails to hold this zone, some analysts warn that a sharp drop toward lower demand levels could follow, further weakening investor confidence.


The atmosphere is tense and filled with uncertainty. Bulls argue that once broader market conditions begin to recover, XRP could be one of the first altcoins to rebound and reclaim its previous range highs. On the other hand, skeptics believe that XRP’s trend has clearly broken down, and a return to bullish momentum could take longer than many anticipate — if it happens at all.


Despite the conflicting views on price action, on-chain data offers a glimmer of optimism. Top analyst Ali Martinez shared insights on X, revealing that the XRP network is quietly growing stronger.

This surge in network participation could be a signal of long-term strength and resilience. If the broader market stabilizes, such steady growth in network fundamentals may give XRP the momentum it needs to mount a serious recovery. But for now, the $1.80 level remains the line in the sand — and all eyes are on whether it holds or breaks.

XRP is currently trading at $1.82 after a sharp drop below the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1.94 and the 200-day Simple Moving Average (MA) at $1.85. These technical levels were acting as key support during recent consolidation, but bulls failed to defend them, signaling growing weakness in the current trend.

The breakdown began when XRP lost the $2 mark — a psychological and technical level that had previously provided stability. Since then, bearish momentum has intensified, and buyers have struggled to regain control. With XRP now firmly below major moving averages, the risk of continued downside remains high.


However, all is not lost. A decisive reclaim of the $1.95 level, ideally with strong volume and follow-through, could spark a recovery back above the $2 threshold. Such a move would likely restore short-term bullish sentiment and provide the foundation for a broader rebound.

On the flip side, losing the $1.80 support would be a major blow for bulls. If this level fails to hold, XRP could rapidly descend toward the $1.50 zone, where the next meaningful support lies. For now, traders are watching these levels closely as XRP battles to regain stability amid broader market turbulence.
