XRP dropped under $2 briefly during the broader market selloff on January 19, but what caught my attention wasn't the price—it was what happened underneath it.

The token is mirroring a technical structure from 2017 that preceded a sustained rally, and while retail sentiment turned cautious, whale addresses added over 120 million $XRP in the past week.

Meanwhile, 75% of Binance traders are holding long positions, which is unusual during a correction. It's not confirmation of anything, but the contrast between surface-level fear and institutional accumulation is worth noting.

Sometimes the best setups form when the noise and the data don't match.
