$XRP ๐จ XRP Price Update: Rebound Falters as Key $1.20 Level is Tested! ๐จ
XRP slid to around $1.22 on Tuesday after a brief rally past $1.20. Despite hitting a session high of $1.25, profit-taking and a broader crypto market slowdown (with BTC, ETH, and SOL also sliding) cooled off the momentum.
Here is what you need to know right now ๐
๐ What Drove the Recent Jump?
Whale Accumulation ๐ณ: Wallets holding \ge 1M XRP now control 74.1% of the total supply, scooping up 1.53B tokens over the last 6 months!
ETF Inflows ๐ฐ: XRP-linked ETFs pulled in $10.68M for the week ending June 12, bringing total inflows close to $1.44B.
Macro Environment ๐: A temporary U.S.-Iran peace deal temporarily dropped oil prices and eased inflation fears, though macro caution remains high ahead of the upcoming Fed rate decision.
๐ค The Ripple x Flutterwave Deal: What Changes?
Ripple has invested in African payments startup Flutterwave (valued at $3.2B) to integrate:
๐น RLUSD Stablecoin
๐น Ripple Payments
๐น XRP Ledger (XRPL)
Real-World Utility: Flutterwaveโs stablecoin infrastructure is already live with select merchants and piloting on its Send App. While this boosts network enterprise utility, traders are waiting to see if it directly translates to long-term spot XRP demand.
๐ฏ Key Levels to Watch Next
๐ Bull Case: Holding above $1.20 keeps the breakout alive. A clean break through $1.27 โ $1.30 will give bulls serious confidence.
๐ป Bear Case: A slip below $1.18 invalidates the breakout, risking a drop back into the old $1.14 โ $1.15 range.
โ ๏ธ Trader's Note: U.S. NYSE markets are closed this Friday, June 19, for Juneteenth. Expect lighter traditional liquidity and ETF flow data heading into the weekend!๐ง
