Ripple Price Alert: XRP Nearing Make-or-Break Support – Brace for Volatility

XRP traders are sweating as key support levels wobble—will the 'bankers' crypto' live up to its hype or faceplant like a 2017 ICO?

Critical Thresholds Tested

The digital asset flirts with danger zones that could trigger cascading liquidations. Market makers eye these levels like hawks—break below, and the drop could get ugly fast.

Bull Trap or Springboard?

Some see blood in the water, others a buying opportunity. Meanwhile, Wall Street 'experts' still can't decide if crypto's a scam or the future—maybe both?

Technical Analysis

The USDT Pair

On the XRP/USDT daily chart, the price is currently trading NEAR the $3.10 mark, facing a strong resistance zone around $3.40. This follows a breakout above the $2.70 range in July, which has now flipped into a support area.

Both the 100-day and 200-day moving averages are also trending upward and recently formed a bullish crossover around $2.45, reinforcing the medium-term bullish sentiment. If the $3.40 resistance breaks, a push toward the critical $4.00 range becomes likely.

However, the RSI hovering near the neutral 50 level suggests a lack of strong momentum for now, meaning a short-term pullback into the $2.80 support zone is still possible.

This zone will be key for maintaining the bullish structure. Losing it could open the door for a deeper correction toward the 200-day moving average located around the $2.40 mark. Yet, as long as the price stays above the moving averages, the broader trend remains bullish.

The BTC Pair

Looking at the XRP/BTC chart, the pair has recently pulled back after hitting the 3,000 SAT resistance, with the price currently around 2,600 SAT.

This follows a clean breakout above the long-term descending channel and a successful retest of its upper boundary, which coincided with the 200-day moving average and the 2,400 SAT support zone. This confluence remains a key bullish technical factor, as holding above it could attract renewed buying pressure.

That said, RSI levels around 48 show that momentum has cooled after the sharp July rally, meaning XRP may continue ranging between 2,400 SAT and 3,000 SAT in the near term. A decisive close above 3,000 SAT WOULD likely open the path to the 3,400 SAT zone, while losing 2,400 SAT could shift the bias back toward 2,000 SAT support. For now, the structure still favors the bulls as long as higher lows remain intact.
