XRP traded at $1.38 after gaining 1.11% in 24 hours. However, the token remained down 3.90% over the past seven days. 

Summary
  • XRP holds near $1.38 as traders watch $1.3930 for a possible momentum shift.
  • Analysts cite bull flag, RSI, MACD, and blue bridge signals as key XRP setups.
  • Ripple’s Kbank deal and Dubai HQ expansion add institutional context to XRP demand.

Trading volume stood at $1.55 billion, while market cap reached $84.95 billion. The market is now watching whether XRP can reclaim stronger momentum. 

Analysts said the token must hold key support levels to avoid more weakness. The $1.3930 level remains an important area for short-term direction.

Analysts track the blue bridge setup

EGRAG Crypto said XRP is reacting from what he called the “Blue Bridge.” He described it as a macro support line across past cycles. The analyst noted similar reactions in 2018, 2021, and 2026.

He also pointed to a repeated 71% move after prior touches. However, this remains a chart-based projection, not a confirmed outcome. He said, “Price respects structure before news confirms it.”

In addition, Cryptoinsightuk said XRP is still holding a bull flag pattern. The analyst added that weekly RSI and MACD have turned bullish. He compared the current setup with the last major upside cycle.

Still, the market needs confirmation through price action. CryptoWZRD said XRP closed indecisively on the daily chart. He added, “Above $1.3930 is positive territory. Below we’ll get more weakness.”

Ripple growth adds market context

Ripple’s business expansion also remains part of the wider XRP discussion. The company is reportedly working with Kbank to support institutional-grade wallet infrastructure in Korea. The move targets regulated digital asset services.

Ripple has also expanded its Middle East and Africa presence with a new regional headquarters in Dubai’s DIFC. DIFC’s chief executive said the move is a “strong signal” of confidence in Dubai as a blockchain hub.
