- XRP trades at $1.0963, down 0.79% over 24 hours but holding most of a violent breakout from the $1.00 floor.
- The fundamental backdrop has not changed: ETF demand has collapsed and the CLARITY Act vote is still waiting.
- $1.0515 is the level that decides whether the breakout is real or a liquidity event.
Fundamental Analysis: XRP
The institutional bid has effectively gone. Spot XRP funds took in just $27.29m across July, with zero inflows on 11 of 22 trading days - set against the $666m gathered in November 2025 when the products launched. That is not a slowdown so much as a stall, and it removes the steady, price-insensitive buyer the market had been counting on.
The legislative catalyst has slipped too. The Senate postponed the CLARITY Act on 27 July before its recess, which means the bill that would permanently classify XRP as a commodity under federal law cannot get a vote until lawmakers return in the autumn. The wider tape has not helped either: spot bitcoin funds recorded their largest outflow in six weeks on 17 August.
What sits against that is positioning. Around 60% of circulating supply is held at a loss against an average cost basis near $1.48, and reserves held on exchanges have fallen to roughly 1.6bn tokens, a seven-year low. Thin float and exhausted sellers are precisely the conditions in which a small bid produces a large move - which is what the chart just delivered, without a fundamental change underneath it.
Technical Analysis: XRP

The structure was a month-long decline from $1.10 in early August down to the $1.00 floor, where price ground sideways for several sessions beneath a stack of falling averages. That ended abruptly: a near-vertical candle carried XRP from $1.00 to a $1.1375 wick high, clearing the $1.0221, $1.0297, $1.0351 and $1.0515 averages in a single move, before settling at $1.0963.
Resistance is the $1.1375 spike high, then the $1.18 top of the summer range. Support is $1.08, then the 200-period average at $1.0515 and the $1.00 floor beneath. A four-hour close back under $1.0515 would put price back inside the old structure and mark the spike as a squeeze rather than a trend change.
