XRP Braces for Volatility: Key Price Levels to Watch This Week

Ripple’s XRP faces a make-or-break week as traders eye critical support zones—bulls need to hold $0.55 or risk a cascade toward $0.48. Meanwhile, SEC lawsuit theatrics continue to haunt price action like a bad recurring dream.

Technical indicators scream ’oversold,’ but in crypto-land, that just means another 20% drop before the algos wake up. On-chain data shows whales accumulating at these levels—either a genius contrarian play or another ’buy the dip’ trap.

Fun fact: XRP’s 2025 performance still trails Bitcoin by 58%. But hey, at least it’s not a stablecoin—unless you count its uncanny ability to stabilize at lower lows.

XRP Price Predictions to Watch This Week

1. Buyers Hesitate

In the past few weeks, XRP failed to move away from the key support at $2 and is found around $2.17 at the time of this post. Buyers are absent and any attempt at pushing this cryptocurrency higher is quickly met by sellers. This is a sign of weakness.

2. Another Rejection at $2.3

Last Monday, the bulls tried to break the resistance at $2.3, but they were quickly stopped. Since then, the price has been moving lower and is approaching the key support. If nothing changes, buyers will have another chance to show up at $2 to reverse this downtrend.

3. MACD Weakness

The daily MACD just did a bearish cross. This is unfortunate and shows the bullish momentum is absent. It also encourages sellers to push the price lower and attempt to break the $2 support. A loss of this key level would turn the chart bearish in the short to medium term.
