XRP lose steam, risks 20% decline despite Donald Trump's presidential executive order

Fonte Fxstreet
  • XRP investors realized over $500 million in profits in the past 48 hours.
  • Short-term holders are responsible for most of the selling activity following CME's clarification on XRP futures.
  • XRP could decline nearly 20% to $2.62 as bulls show signs of exhaustion.

Ripple's XRP declined 3% in the early trading hours on Friday as on-chain and technical indicators signify that bulls are losing steam.

XRP short-term holders show weakness, books over $500 million in profits

XRP showed no signs of recovery despite the positive developments of US President Donald Trump signing an executive order to establish a Presidential Working Group on digital assets.

The market weakness could stem from disappointments after the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) clarified that it hasn't decided to launch futures contracts for XRP, according to Fox Business's Eleanor Terrett.

The news sparked a wave of negative sentiment across the XRP community, which has been anticipating the launch to validate potential Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) approval of XRP ETFs.

As a result, the token continued its consolidation, with investors realizing $500 million in profits in the past 48 hours.

The realized profits stem from potential selling activity from short-term holders, as indicated by slight upticks across the 90-day, 180-day and 365-day Dormant Circulation.

Additionally, XRP's open interest (OI) growth has stalled in the past few days, declining from an all-time high of 2.34 billion XRP to 2.14 billion XRP. Open interest is the total amount of outstanding contracts in a derivatives market. A decline in OI suggests traders are closing their positions.

Despite the decline in OI, XRP bulls are still in control of its spot market, following increased net outflows across Binance and Kraken in the past week. Coinbase and Bitstamp, however, saw inflows.

Net outflows in crypto exchanges signify buying activity is dominant, and vice versa for net inflows.

XRP risks 20% decline following weakening bullish momentum

XRP sustained $10.06 million in liquidations in the past 24 hours, per Coinglass data. The remittance-based token saw long and short liquidations worth $7.69 million and $2.37 million, respectively.

XRP's bullish strength is showing signs of weakness after posting a doji or indecision candlestick on Wednesday. This candlestick shows that an asset's opening and closing prices are almost the same, indicating a potential trend reversal.

Following the candlestick, XRP experienced a 3% pullback, corresponding with growing market sentiments of a bullish exhaustion.

This aligns with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Awesome Oscillator (AO) histograms which have posted consecutive lower lows above their neutral levels — indicating weakening bullish momentum.

If XRP sustains a decline below the $2.90 level, it could decline to find support at $2.62 near the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).

However, a rally above a descending trendline resistance extending from January 16 will invalidate the bearish thesis and send XRP to a new all-time high above $3.55.

Ripple FAQs

Ripple is a payments company that specializes in cross-border remittance. The company does this by leveraging blockchain technology. RippleNet is a network used for payments transfer created by Ripple Labs Inc. and is open to financial institutions worldwide. The company also leverages the XRP token.

XRP is the native token of the decentralized blockchain XRPLedger. The token is used by Ripple Labs to facilitate transactions on the XRPLedger, helping financial institutions transfer value in a borderless manner. XRP therefore facilitates trustless and instant payments on the XRPLedger chain, helping financial firms save on the cost of transacting worldwide.

XRPLedger is based on a distributed ledger technology and the blockchain using XRP to power transactions. The ledger is different from other blockchains as it has a built-in inflammatory protocol that helps fight spam and distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attacks. The XRPL is maintained by a peer-to-peer network known as the global XRP Ledger community.

XRP uses the interledger standard. This is a blockchain protocol that aids payments across different networks. For instance, XRP’s blockchain can connect the ledgers of two or more banks. This effectively removes intermediaries and the need for centralization in the system. XRP acts as the native token of the XRPLedger blockchain engineered by Jed McCaleb, Arthur Britto and David Schwartz.
