Short-Term Market Context (Dec 16, 2025):

📉 Near-term weakness continuing
$XRP XRP and broader crypto are under pressure as Bitcoin and other major cryptos fall, driving selling pressure across altcoins including XRP. Broader market declines are linked to forced liquidations and weak macro sentiment. CoinDesk+1

🔍 Key technical levels to watch
• Support around ~$2.00 is critical — holding this level could stabilize price short-term; breach below may accelerate further downside. The Economic Times
• Resistance ~$2.40–$2.50+ must be reclaimed for upside momentum. The Economic Times

📈 Short-term sentiment
• Short-term technical indicators and market structure lean bearish or neutral until buyers step in. Recent price action shows weak momentum with sellers dominating. The Economic Times
• Some institutional flows (like spot ETF inflows) could create underlying support, but impact isn’t yet strong enough to reverse trend. BTCC

🎯 Short-term outlook (next 1–3 days)
• Bearish base case: If $2.00 breaks → potential further downside toward ~$1.70–$1.80. The Economic Times
• Bullish shift: Reclaim and hold above ~$2.40–$2.50 with volume → may target a relief bounce. $XRP #Xrp🔥🔥
