XRP has experienced prolonged weakness as digital asset markets remain under strain, yet a Japanese financial commentator believes the current phase may precede a significant shift. Angorou, a widely followed analyst in Japan, has presented a detailed outlook suggesting that XRP could eventually reach a valuation of 1,000 yen, which converts to approximately $6.41 at prevailing exchange rates. At the time Angorou published his assessment, XRP was trading near $1.99, equivalent to roughly 300 yen. While recent price action has disappointed many market participants, he argues that broader structural and regulatory developments could materially improve XRP’s outlook in 2026. Market Performance Leading to the Current Price Angorou’s analysis begins with a review of XRP’s price movement since late 2024. In early November of that year, XRP was valued at approximately 75 yen. Shortly thereafter, Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential election altered expectations across the cryptocurrency market. Campaign signals pointing toward regulatory reform and a potential leadership change at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission led investors to anticipate a resolution of Ripple’s legal challenges. This shift in sentiment contributed to a rapid rise in XRP’s price. By January 2025, the token had surpassed 500 yen. However, the rally proved unstable, as a market-wide correction, partly attributed to tax-related selling, pushed XRP back into the 200-yen range. The asset later regained momentum and recorded a new peak of 542 yen in July 2025. Following that high, XRP entered a sustained decline. By the time of Angorou’s commentary, the price had retreated to around 303 yen, representing a drawdown of approximately 45% from its July peak. This performance placed XRP among the weaker assets within the upper tier of cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Whale Activity Reflects Shifting Confidence On-chain data also plays a central role in Angorou’s thesis. He examined wallet addresses holding at least 1 million XRP, which equates to more than 300 million yen at current prices. On November 6, 2024, there were 2,111 such addresses. As XRP prices climbed following the U.S. election, accumulation by these large holders increased significantly. The number of whale addresses continued to grow even after XRP peaked in mid-2025, reaching a record 2,758 by October. However, as prices declined sharply thereafter, the number of large holders fell to approximately 2,011, indicating a rapid reversal in sentiment. Angorou also observed signs of reduced participation from retail investors, which may have further pressured prices.

In November, Canary Capital introduced the first U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded fund. Since then, four additional XRP-focused ETFs have entered the market. These products have demonstrated unusual consistency. Since their launch, XRP ETFs have not recorded a single day of net outflows. From mid-November onward, they achieved 25 consecutive trading days of inflows, bringing total assets to approximately $1.07 billion, or about 169 billion yen. This inflow streak exceeds those previously observed in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana ETF products. Regulatory Clarity as a 2026 Catalyst Angorou believes regulatory developments could be decisive for XRP’s future. He highlighted proposed U.S. legislation aimed at clearly distinguishing between securities and commodities. Under such a framework, assets classified as commodities would fall under the oversight of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which applies fewer constraints than the SEC. Bitcoin already holds commodity status, and similar recognition for Ethereum appears increasingly likely. Angorou contends that if XRP were formally classified as a commodity, U.S. banks and financial institutions could adopt Ripple’s payment infrastructure without legal uncertainty. He also referenced Ripple’s conditional approval to operate as a trust bank, which could expand its role within regulated financial services. To estimate XRP’s potential upside, Angorou examined its historical valuation relative to Bitcoin. During earlier periods of strong market confidence, XRP’s ratio to Bitcoin averaged 0.169, with peaks as high as 0.48. Throughout the SEC lawsuit period, the ratio remained significantly lower. If regulatory clarity restores XRP’s standing and narrows this gap, Angorou estimates the token could reach approximately 780 yen under stable Bitcoin prices. Should legislative reforms coincide with Bitcoin rising above 20 million yen, he believes XRP could surpass the 1,000-yen threshold in 2026.

📉 𝐁𝐓𝐂 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 — 𝟒 𝐂𝐫𝐲𝐩𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐋𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐍𝐨𝐰 Bitcoin ( $BTC ) and the broader market are trading lower as strong U.S. data and fund selling weigh on risk assets. BTC is holding near $87,000, while ETH stays below $3,000 and XRP consolidates around $1.88. Several assets are now sitting at important technical zones 👇 🔹 XRP ( $XRP ) XRP remains range-bound between $1.80 support and $2.00 resistance. Buyers defend the lower bound, but momentum is weak, with RSI at 43 and a bearish MACD. A break above $2.00 could open a move toward $2.20. 🔹 Solana ( $SOL ) SOL is consolidating between $120 and $130, trading near $122. A loss of $120 risks a slide toward $112, while a strong bounce with volume could refocus attention on $130–$140. 🔹 WhiteBIT Token ($WBT) WBT trades near $56.6, about 11% below ATH. Recent declines look controlled, with mild intraday stabilization suggesting sellers aren’t aggressive. 🔹 Ethereum ( ETH) ETH stays technically weak after a death cross and a bearish flag breakdown. Downside targets sit near $2,622 and $2,500, while a move above the 200-day MA at $3,400 would invalidate the bearish setup. Bottom line: With BTC consolidating under pressure, these levels are likely to shape the next market move.

📊 𝐑𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐓𝐎: 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐞𝐬 - 𝐔𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 Ripple CTO David Schwartz says price alone doesn’t show real adoption. For  $XRP , what truly matters is activity - transactions and liquidity, not short-term hype. Here’s what stands out 👇 1. XRP has processed 4+ billion transactions, settling in seconds with near-zero fees 2. Deep liquidity supports real value transfer, not just trading 3. Institutions are issuing and moving assets on-chain, not letting them sit idle That’s the difference between infrastructure and noise. It’s similar to how  $BTC  evolved - from a speculative trade into something institutions actually use 🧠 Retail adoption is still catching up, but it usually follows once real financial products appear. 🚀 That same focus on real usage shows up elsewhere too. WhiteBIT is running a TradingView Star Rating mission ⭐, rewarding users for broker feedback - a small example of platforms paying attention to real user signals, not just price charts. Less hype. More activity. That’s where the market is heading.

Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP are trading lower today as crypto markets react to strong U.S. economic data and selling pressure from crypto investment funds. For now, $BTC is holding near the $87,000 level, ETH is trading below $3,000, and XRP is hovering around $1.88. Dogecoin, Solana and Cardano are also trading lower. U.S. government data showed that the economy grew at an annual rate of 4.3% in the third quarter, much higher than the 3.3% expected by markets. While this means a healthy and fast-growing economy, it has triggered short-term pressure on risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Historically, strong GDP readings have often led to short-term pullbacks in Bitcoin, usually in the range of 4% to 5%. Market watchers note that the last three GDP releases followed a similar pattern, with Bitcoin dipping briefly before moving higher again. At the same time, crypto sentiment remains weak. The Fear and Greed Index is at 29, showing fear in the market, while the average crypto RSI sits near oversold levels, hinting heavy selling in recent sessions. ETF Outflows Add to Pressure Another major reason for today’s decline is the selling from crypto exchange-traded funds. Last week, crypto funds recorded $952 million in net outflows, snapping a three-week streak of inflows. Investors have now pulled money from crypto funds in six of the past ten weeks. Ethereum ETFs saw the biggest hit, with $555 million in outflows, while Bitcoin funds lost $460 million. This selling has added pressure to prices, especially for Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, not all assets are seeing exits. Solana and XRP continued to attract inflows, with $48.5 million and $62.9 million added last week, showing selective interest in certain altcoins. Despite today’s decline, analysts say the bigger picture remains positive. A strong U.S. economy reduces recession risks, which is generally supportive for financial markets over time. In past cycles, periods of strong growth have eventually helped crypto recover and move higher. Leverage in the market is also playing a role. As prices fall, leveraged positions are being unwound, adding to volatility and sharp moves in both directions.

XRP has slipped below a level that, for much of the past year, acted like a structural anchor for the chart: the $1.95 area. Crypto analyst Guy on the Earth (@guyontheearth) argued that XRP has now closed under that zone on a higher timeframe, calling out the two-week chart specifically. “For the first time in 13 months XRP has closed under this monthly support at $1.95 on the 2 week chart,” he wrote. “It’s the second time on the weekly this has happened with April tariffs being the first.” The 2-Weekly Close Is Crucial For XRP From there, his analysis went straight to the downside implication. “The technical target of this break down is 90c,” he added. “Do with this information what you have to. Everyone must make their own decisions at this time. The goal is getting back above $1.95.” XRP price analysis, 2-week chart | Source: X @guyontheearth The way he laid it out, $1.95 was not simply a mid-range price level but the lower boundary of a broader consolidation “rectangle.” Losing it, in that framework, opens the door to a measured move lower — with the reclaim of $1.95 as the key invalidation. Related Reading XRP Price Forecasts For 2026 Unveiled By AI Simulation: Should Investors Remain Bullish? 14 hours ago He also offered a risk-management approach for holders who are uncomfortable sitting through a potential continuation move. “If you are uncomfortable holding your bags with this breakdown – sell to reduce risk to where you feel comfortable,” he wrote. “Buy back on a close above $1.95 on the daily ( or a timeframe that you believe in) and your % loss of XRP is next to nothing. But should we go to 90c you are looking at a further 50% loss in capital.” For those treating the move as an opportunity rather than a warning sign, he mapped out incremental levels he views as potential buy zones on the way down. “Alternatively if you believe in XRP longer term and don’t like trading at all – keep buying on the way down,” he wrote. “Key levels are at $1.61, $1.42 and finally the 90c target and the 75c initial breakout.” Even in a bearish framing, he cautioned against assuming a straight-line cascade into every marked level. “We have went in a straight line down for weeks so it is unlikely that these targets would all be hit imminently,” he said. “$1.42 lowest this week if things get really ugly – not massively likely but possible with this breakdown and a big sell off in BTC to lower lows.” Related Reading Here’s Why The XRP Price Keeps Crashing 3 days ago Not everyone agreed with the choice of timeframe used to call the breakdown. One account, XRP whale (@cryptoXRPwhale), pushed back on the premise: “2 week chart is not significant. You can’t choose a specific timeframe and say it’s a structure breakdown that fits your narrative… lol” Guy responded by reiterating that the level being referenced is higher-timeframe support, not a short-term marker. “Look at the chart. It held 13 months and now broke structure,” he wrote. “The lower boundary is monthly support. I’ve said all this.” There was also an attempt in the replies to flip the bearish target into a bullish setup. “Any price under $1 will be short-lived sets $XRP up for a stronger push to the upside past ATH,” wrote Lawrence Bensen (@Lawrence_Bensen), referencing prior cycle lows and a reported wick below $1 on Binance earlier in the cycle. Guy acknowledged the point while keeping the technical math intact. “Yeah for sure – it has already been to 90c on Binance [on October 10],” he wrote. “I think we will recover before going as low as 90c – but that is the technical target of losing this consolidation.” His near-term bias, meanwhile, leaned toward caution largely on liquidity conditions rather than an absolute conviction that $0.90 must print. “My bias is that I find it hard to believe at Christmas people are going to throw heaps of money in this market,” he wrote. “Low liquidity has been an issue anyways and this week wont help. So the slow bleed continues.” At press time, XRP stood at $1.89.
