XRP Could Crash Under $1 After Key Breakdown and Whales Exit: Analyst

In times when almost the entire cryptocurrency market heads south, XRP has joined the ride, plunging to a fresh four-month low of under $1.15. This substantial crash comes as ETF investors have turned the tide and whales have disposed of a large quantity of XRP. As such, analysts now believe another leg down could follow soon.

CasiTraders weighed in on XRP’s price performance, indicating that it is “breaking below a very important support level.” She believes the token’s landscape could worsen from this point forward and predicted a substantial crash to levels below $1.00 soon: My expectation is: Sharp move down toward ~$0.92 Relief bounce back toward ~$1.20 (which should act as resistance) One final move toward $0.87 However, this move south to under $1.00 could be invalidated if XRP rebounds decisively and reclaims the $1.30 resistance soon. The Crypto Move We’ve Been Waiting 4 Months For?! The crypto market is finally starting to see some selling pressure come through, and XRP is breaking below a very important support level.
