[【XRP at this spot feels just like BTC in November 2018】]
In November 2018, BTC got smashed from $6,500 all the way down to $3,200. The market was in total panic—fear index was also in the 20s. Back then I was in Beijing drinking with a few old-timers, and we were all cursing, saying, “That’s it—the bear market is here.”
So what happened? It kicked off by March the following year.
Now XRP is in this exact situation.
Price is $1.10, up 3.4% in the last 24 hours, but it’s basically unchanged over 7 days and down 7% over 30 days. If you look at the data, it feels messy—there’s buying interest coming in short-term, but overall the market is still watching and waiting.
The key is right here: trading volume can’t pick up. Everyone’s waiting for a signal.
Let me tell you how I look at these three signals:
First, short-term momentum is indeed strong. There’s been continuous inflow of buy orders. In a weak market, retail can’t really prop it up alone—there’s definitely some institutional probing for the bottom.
Second, the fear index is 25, with a weekly average of 24. Historically, once FNG hits this range, it often marks a stage of the bottom. When everyone is scared, smart money is already slowly building positions.
Third, XRP is down 70% from its peak—valuation is definitely low. But there’s a problem here: has the fundamental picture changed fundamentally? Ripple’s lawsuit is still ongoing, and regulation hasn’t been fully clarified. Low valuation doesn’t mean it will surge immediately—you still need catalysts.
My take: 1.04 is the lifeline, and 1.14 is the short-term ceiling. Within this range, I lean toward a choppy-but-bullish bias. If it truly breaks above 1.14, then there could be a small run.
But honestly, with trading volume this low, I’m not fully certain. I can only say I’ll keep watching those two levels.
Next week when the results are released—you think this XRP move can really stand up, or will it keep grinding?
