🧠 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞’𝐬 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 $𝟐.𝟎𝟎 𝐨𝐧 𝐗𝐑𝐏 — 𝐅𝐞𝐰 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬 $XRP is hovering around $1.98–$2.02, but don’t let the flat price fool you. Futures volume is still many times higher than spot, meaning this market is being driven by leverage — and leverage always breaks before price trends.
Right now, $1.95–$2.00 is the battlefield. Buyers are defending it aggressively, while sellers keep fading every bounce above $2.05–$2.10. Liquidity is stacked on both sides, and with open interest still high, the next move is more likely a squeeze than a slow grind.
What makes this setup dangerous is the fundamental contrast. Spot XRP ETFs are nearing $900M in inflows, Ripple is progressing toward a regulated U.S. banking license, and wXRP is expanding XRP into DeFi across multiple chains. Institutionally, pressure is building — even while price looks weak.
Technically, momentum is mixed and trend strength is low. That usually means one thing: compression before expansion.
