Heavy whale movements and breached technical supports pushed XRP lower, with traders watching the $2.39–$2.41 band as a key pivot for potential rebound or deeper declines.
XRP dropped 5.1% to $2.41 from $2.54 as whale transfers and technical-driven selloffs heightened market uncertainty. Trading volume surged 46% above daily averages, breaching multiple support levels and testing the $2.39–$2.41 range. Over $1 billion in XRP was moved between Ripple-linked custodial addresses, intensifying volatility despite indications these transfers were internal. The decline stabilized near $2.41, with a brief bounce to $2.418 on opportunistic buying. Key resistance lies at $2.42 and $2.47, while failure to hold above $2.39 could trigger moves toward $2.20–$2.25.
