XRP Market Update: Fear Spikes, but a Rebound Signal Is Emerging 

It’s been a shaky few days for XRP holders, with the price easing back toward the US$2 mark and sentiment turning sharply negative. For many investors, the move has revived memories of earlier selloffs and that familiar sense of “here we go again.”

But as we’ve seen time and again in crypto, periods of extreme fear often lay the groundwork for the next move higher.

Santiment data shows sentiment around XRP has dropped into Extreme Fear, while CoinMarketCap’s Fear & Greed Index has fallen to 16 — levels that have historically aligned more with market bottoms than tops.

Even so, the underlying picture is more compelling:

• XRP-linked ETFs have now recorded 15 consecutive days of net inflows
• Nearly US$900 million has moved into these products over that stretch
• Combined ETF assets under management now sit at around US$861 million

In short, while retail traders are jittery, institutional and longer-term investors appear to be quietly lifting their exposure. For a market as sentiment-driven as crypto, that divergence is worth noting.

XRP recently bounced off a strong support zone around US$1.95, and subsequent price action has formed a bullish falling-channel structure. If this pattern plays out, it often precedes a meaningful reversal.

For now, the level to watch is US$2.20.
A decisive break above it — followed by a successful retest — would indicate momentum is shifting back to the upside and opens the way toward the next psychological marker at US$3.

Importantly, the recent lift in volume during the support bounce is the kind of behaviour you want to see when a reversal may be forming.

While nothing is guaranteed in markets, the current setup is worth attention:

• Sentiment is heavily depressed
• Institutional flows are building
• A constructive chart pattern is emerging

It’s a familiar mix that can support a move higher if broader market conditions remain steady.
