XRP price has weakened over the past 48 hours as broader market conditions failed to stabilize. The token extended its pullback, reflecting persistent risk aversion across digital assets. 

Despite the decline, XRP is not showing signs of disorderly selling. Current focus has shifted toward stabilization, with certain holder groups working to absorb pressure and support a potential recovery.

XRP In the Opportunity Zone

Market sentiment indicators suggest XRP may be nearing a turning point. The Market Value to Realized Value ratio has dipped into the opportunity zone.

A reading below -14% typically signals selling saturation. Historically, such conditions precede accumulation phases as investors seek undervalued entry points.

This setup often attracts buyers willing to absorb excess supply. When MVRV remains depressed, downside momentum tends to slow. Investors frequently step in to capitalize on discounted prices.

Similar behavior is expected in the coming days, which could help XRP form a short-term base.

Long-term holder behavior further supports stabilization prospects. XRP’s Liveliness indicator has declined steadily for several weeks. It is now hovering near a four-month low. Liveliness tracks the movement of long-held coins, offering insight into holder conviction.

A declining Liveliness reading indicates accumulation rather than distribution. In XRP’s case, long-term holders appear to be adding exposure instead of selling. This behavior reduces circulating supply and dampens volatility. Sustained accumulation from this cohort often supports price stabilization during extended drawdowns.

XRP Price Downtrend Continues

XRP price has dropped 10.9% over the past 48 hours, trading near $1.69 at the time of writing. The token is sitting just below the $1.70 support level. Ongoing bearish pressure from a broader downtrend continues to weigh on price action.

The descending trend line has acted as resistance since the start of the year. For XRP to recover, investor participation must increase. Reclaiming $1.81 as support would be a critical step.

Combined with improving sentiment indicators, such a move could push XRP toward the $2.00 level.

Downside risk remains if selling pressure persists. A continued decline could send XRP below the $1.61 support zone. Under that scenario, the price may fall toward $1.54. Such a move would invalidate the bullish thesis and signal prolonged weakness until new demand emerges.
