XRP price: Ripple linked token falls 3% as bitcoin weakness caps recovery
Summary
The XRP token experienced a 2.6% drop, settling near $1.41 after breaking the critical $1.44 support level on volume more than triple the daily average. This decline occurred as broader crypto markets reacted cautiously to the Federal Reserve's policy stance, and XRP's recovery attempts have consistently failed below the $1.55 to $1.60 range since its mid-2025 peak, reinforcing a downtrend marked by lower highs. Traders are now closely watching the $1.40 support zone; holding this level could allow for consolidation toward $1.44–$1.45, but a breakdown below $1.40 risks exposing the token to further downside toward $1.30–$1.32.
