Is XRP Headed for a Deeper Crash? Demand Slumps as Market Turns Bearish

Published by

Ripple Labs recently emerged victorious in its legal battle against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), yet this win has not translated into the expected surge in the price of XRP. Despite the favorable ruling, XRP continues to struggle, with its price plummeting to $0.4734, an 11.67% decline this month amidst the ongoing market crisis.

Even before this drop, XRP wasn’t performing well, and now the situation has worsened. The XRP supply has hit its lowest point in months, and the price continues to fall.

Supply at Historic Lows

The supply of XRP on exchanges has dropped to 2.84 million, valued at $1.34 million at current market prices, the lowest level since January 1. This decline suggests that fewer XRP tokens are being held on cryptocurrency exchanges, indicating a shift in investor behavior.

Where Have All the Tokens Gone?

Several factors could explain this trend. Investors might be transferring their tokens to hardware wallets for enhanced security, staking them on decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, or simply holding onto them in anticipation of a future price increase.

Over the past 11 days, XRP investors have faced substantial losses, totaling more than $30 million. This downturn is attributed to widespread token distribution amid a market crunch, highlighting a troubling trend of market capitulation.

XRP Price Analysis

XRP’s daily price performance points to a diminishing demand for the altcoin. The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), which monitors money entering and leaving the market, currently stands at 0.06. A negative CMF signals market weakness, suggesting that capital is exiting the market, a harbinger of potential further declines.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for XRP also indicates a bearish trend. The MACD line (blue) is below both the signal line (orange) and the zero line, reinforcing the prevailing negative sentiment.

Despite these indicators, there are no signs of a strong rebound for XRP in the near future. Currently, XRP is trading at $0.47, reflecting a 0.8% drop in the last 24 hours. As the market grapples with these challenges, the outlook for XRP remains uncertain.
