XRP News Today : XRP Shows Early Signs of Market Recovery, but Still Trading Below the $2 Psychological Barrier

XRP, the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is up 3.52% over the last 24 hours, reportedly outperforming other cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum. Despite the short-term bullish momentum and improved institutional interest, XRP still trades below $2 psychological level. According to the latest market data, the XRP price today is $1.92, defending major support levels around $1.90–$1.95, as bulls struggle to maintain momentum above critical resistance levels. 

XRP has been rising over 3.5% for the last 24 hours, while daily trading volume has declined 24% to $2.79B. Alongside XRP’s bullish momentum, the broader cryptocurrency market is also trending higher today, with major assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL) posting notable gains over the past 24 hours. According to the latest market analysis, recovering trading volumes and positive institutional developments are the major catalysts  driving the broader cryptocurrency market momentum.

XRP’s technical reversal signals show mixed impact, with the digital asset reclaiming the 78.6% Fibonacci support ($1.93). XRP’s RSI(14) exited oversold territory, meaning that selling pressure is easing and signalling a relief bounce or short-term recovery. The latest technical analysis shows that the MACD histogram shows bearish momentum fading, indicating that downward pressure is fading, and price consolidation or a short-term bounce is in line. Regulatory updates and legal wins against the SEC and partnerships like SBI Holdings’ institutional XRP treasury have played a pivotal role in XRP’s market rebound. Regulatory clarity has always been a positive and growth-fueling factor in the crypto sector.   

Web3 expert and crypto analyst William stated in an X post that XRP’s rebound above $1.90 had hit a ceiling near $1.95 as a bearish trend line formed at $1.9520. He observed that the critical $2.00 resistance was holding firm, with the price trading beneath both this level and the 100-hour SMA. He mentioned that breaking $2.00 decisively could launch XRP toward $2.05 and then $2.12. Conversely, he indicated that failure there risked a slide to $1.90 and the crucial $1.85 support. He observed and claimed that MACD momentum was fading in bearish territory while RSI stayed above 50, signaling cautious optimism. He also highlighted the key levels to watch: supports at $1.90/$1.85 and resistances at $1.95/$2.00. 

Record XRP-spot ETF Inflows Lift Confidence Amid Macro Uncertainty

XRP’s institutional interest continues to strengthen, with XRP spot ETFs extending their 21‑day inflow streak and pushing total inflows past $1B. Industry experts believe that the rising demand for XRP-spot ETFs, combined with the odds of a March Fed rate cut, point to a medium-term positive price outlook. On Monday, December 15, 2025, XRP-spot ETF issuers reported a total net inflow of $10.89 million, with the Canary XRP ETF (XRPC) and Franklin XRP ETF (XRPZ) leading the race with net inflows of $376.5 million and $193 million, respectively. Despite the short-term bullish momentum, Friday’s Bank of Japan interest rate decision will have a major impact on the XRP rally, and a possible interest rate hike could force investors to move away from volatile assets like BTC, ETH, and XRP.

Crypto analyst Samz Crypto posted on the CoinMarketCap community wall that spot XRP ETFs had recorded 30 consecutive days of net inflows, setting a new industry record. He noted that since the first U.S.-listed spot XRP ETF launched on November 13, 2025, it has not seen a single day of net outflows, highlighting steady institutional demand and growing investor confidence. He added that the consistent inflows have kept XRP firmly in the spotlight as interest from traditional finance continues to strengthen.
