XRP Exchange Reserves Just Hit a 7-Year Low. Price Hasn't Caught Up Yet.
$XRP holds steady near $1.14, still locked between $1.10 support and the $1.20 wall that's capped every push higher this month.
Here's what the chart isn't showing. Exchange reserves dropped to 1.6 billion XRP, the lowest in seven years, down 50% from October. Coins are leaving exchanges faster than they're arriving. That's not a chart pattern, that's supply quietly disappearing from the sell-side.
Meanwhile Ripple isn't waiting for price to move. RLUSD now runs through Mastercard's settlement network, MXNB is live with Bitso for peso payments, and the XRPL just shipped an AI Starter Kit letting autonomous agents settle in XRP directly.
XRP investment products have now attracted roughly $1.45B in cumulative inflows, even as price remains stuck in the same range. Large holders have been taking profits into that range, yet sellers still haven't managed to break $1.10.
Exchange supply keeps shrinking, utility keeps expanding. Yet price hasn't reacted, markets rarely ignore that divergence forever.
