Title: 📉 XRP Faces Death-Cross Risk as BTC & ETH Show Weak Institutional Support$
XRP’s weekly structure is turning increasingly fragile as the 23-week and 50-week SMAs tighten toward a potential death-cross. Price currently trades below both moving averages, confirming a weakening trend. If XRP fails to hold the critical support around $1.8686, the chart opens a pathway toward the 200-week MA near ~$1.38, representing an estimated –26% downside risk.
On the macro side, institutional appetite remains weak. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have recorded over $1B in combined net outflows across the past 30 days, signalling reduced conviction among large investors. Sustained negative flows historically add selling pressure and limit trend continuation.
The week also saw a major altcoin risk event — Solana-based meme token HNUT collapsed ~99%, another reminder of liquidity fragility in low-cap tokens.
Key Watchpoints:
• XRP — Death-cross risk active; downside pivot: $1.38
• BTC — Needs breakout above weekly resistance band ($101k–$105k) for continuation
• ETH — ETF flows remain the main driver; bias weak until inflows return
Caution remains essential as technicals and flows align on short-term downside risk.
