XRP is currently trading in the $1.35 - $1.40 range (around $1.35, down approximately 3% in the last 24 hours). It hit a low of $1.11 in February, but has seen a 6% rebound in recent days due to institutional buying and spot demand. Short analysis: Technically, the critical support/resistance zone is between $1.30 and $1.44. If $1.44 is broken, the upward momentum will accelerate; if it falls below, $1.10 - $1.26 may be tested. Despite general market pressure, institutional accumulation signals are strong (spot trading ratio in exchange data is positive). Some analysts are setting targets of **$3.50 - $10 (+)** for the end of 2026 (some even say 900%+ potential), but conservative estimates remain in the $1.4 - $2.80 range. Current news: Ripple is further decentralizing the XRPL ecosystem in 2026: XAO DAO launched new funding hubs, regional accelerators, and independent developer programs. Funds invested since 2017 ($550M+) will now be distributed community-focused → bullish in the long term. Institutional accumulation continues, retail purchase volume increased by 200%+ on some exchanges. XRP is relatively resilient while the market is generally down, but ETF flows have slowed and regulatory uncertainty is putting pressure.#DeepCreationCamp

XRP recently dropped 40%, causing short-term speculators to exit en masse, easing the unstable selling pressure, while long-term holders increased their positions. The leverage levels on major exchanges remain balanced, and institutional investment products also experienced stable capital inflows during the decline. From a technical perspective, holding above $1.31 is crucial, and breaking through $1.52 could open the door to $1.70.
