Summary

XRP traded between $2.34 and $2.39 after a volatile week, holding above key short-term support near $2.34. Market analysts cautioned that a deeper correction toward $1.55 remains possible before the next recovery phase. Ripple’s proposed $1 billion capital raise and the U.S. SEC’s ongoing review of six spot XRP ETF applications continue to influence market sentiment. Meanwhile, traders are closely monitoring ETF-related headlines, U.S.–China trade developments, and Federal Reserve policy signals for potential volatility triggers. CoinDesk also reported commentary from NYDIG’s Greg Cipolaro, who noted that stablecoins like USDC, USDT, and USDe are not strictly pegged to the U.S. dollar, highlighting their market-based valuation risks.
