XRP’s post-settlement rally lost steam on Saturday, with the token falling 5% from $3.34 to $3.20 before stabilizing near $3.30. The drop came a day after XRP surged more than 13% on news that Ripple and the SEC had officially ended their five-year legal battle, jointly dismissing appeals and securing long-awaited regulatory clarity.

Heavy selling hit between 14:00-15:00, driving a 209.67 million volume spike the session’s largest before buyers defended the $3.20 zone and pushed prices back toward $3.33.
