XRP has remained under pressure over the past month, falling more than 26 percent amid broader weakness in the crypto market. Another decline of nearly 3 percent on Wednesday renewed concerns that liquidation pressure from last weekend\u2019s sharp sell off may not be fully resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, new data indicates that the recent wave of liquidations may have reset market conditions, allowing spot demand to influence price action more organically without excessive leverage amplifying moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs of a Market Reset<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data from CryptoQuant shows that XRP open interest on Binance has dropped to about $406 million, the lowest level recorded since November 2024. The sharp decline suggests a significant unwinding of leveraged positions, likely driven by long liquidations and traders exiting positions as prices fell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When open interest reaches such low levels, the market becomes less prone to sudden volatility caused by long or short squeezes. CryptoQuant noted that this type of derivatives market reset often leads to more stable price behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With liquidation pressure largely reduced, future price movements are less likely to be exaggerated by over leveraged positions. If spot demand increases alongside strong on chain activity, XRP could see a more sustainable recovery. According to the analysis, this clean slate creates conditions that may support a meaningful trend reversal, with the derivatives market now better positioned to absorb new buying or selling pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Momentum Indicators Signal Reset<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technical indicators are also pointing to a broader reset. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto said XRP macro relative strength index has dropped into the 45 to 50 range faster than expected, a zone that has historically preceded strong price rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He explained that while downside momentum looks aggressive, the selling does not appear to be driven by retail investors. Instead, it reflects distribution by larger holders during periods of heightened liquidity. Egrag Crypto described the current setup as a full reset phase following a previous RSI peak near 80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that the 45 to 50 RSI range has served as macro support in every prior XRP cycle and has never been breached. Historically, this compression phase has flushed out weaker holders, reset momentum, and been followed by renewed expansion. The analyst noted that the structure would only turn bearish if RSI drops below approximately 43.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Institutional interest has also shown resilience. US listed spot XRP exchange traded funds recorded $19.46 million in inflows on February 3, according to SoSoValue. The Franklin XRP ETF led with $12.13 million, followed by Bitwise with $4.8 million and the Grayscale XRP Trust with $2.51 million. In comparison, Bitcoin ETFs saw $272 million in net outflows, while Ethereum ETFs recorded about $14 million in inflows, positioning XRP funds as relative outperformers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
