XRP shed 3% of its value in the latest session after falling back through the $1.15 support level, a price point that had briefly looked like a launchpad for a recovery. The digital asset’s attempt to push above that threshold failed, and heavy selling soon drove it down again.
Lost support and a failed breakout
The token had tried to climb out of its recent slump by breaking above $1.15, a level traders have watched as a potential floor. But the momentum didn’t hold. Within hours, the price reversed, dropping back below what many in the market had considered a key zone of buying interest. The 3% decline erased gains from earlier in the week.
Heavy selling pressure persists
Data from exchanges shows consistent sell orders piling up each time the price tries to recover. The move below $1.15 wasn’t a sudden crash—it was a grinding sell-off that accelerated once the support line gave way. The downtrend has been stubborn: every rally that approaches $1.25 gets cut short, with sellers stepping in to cap the upside. That pattern has repeated so often it’s become the defining feature of XRP’s current chart.
What’s next for the token
Without a clean break above $1.25, the trend remains bearish. The failed breakout at $1.15 and the subsequent 3% drop leave XRP in a precarious spot. The next question is whether buyers will step in again at lower levels or if the selling will push the price further down. There’s no scheduled event or catalyst on the calendar that traders are pointing to—just the same daily grind of resistance and retreat.
