Ripple Labs has announced a major acquisition to shock the market out of an otherwise dreadful week. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the crypto firm announced that it has acquired Hidden Road, a brokerage, clearing, and financing firm as it moves forward in its mission to become the leader for institutional investors moving into the digital assets space. Ripple Acquires Hidden Road For $1.25 Billion The Tuesday announcement by Ripple has further solidified the mission that the crypto firm has long put forward, and that is to provide instant and quick transfer of value for traditional and institutional investors coming into the digital assets space. Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Reveals What Will Happen If XRP Price Does Not Break $2.3 As CEO Brad Garlinghouse explained in a separate X post, the decision to acquire Hidden Road for $1.25 billion comes after a long-standing customer relationship with the company. Garlinghouse revealed that Ripple understands the breadth of Hidden Road’s expertise, making it a prime candidate for the acquisition. The integration of the XRP Ledger by Hidden Road will allow for cheap and fast movement of value to the brokerage’s customers, which moves over $3 trillion annually. A portion of this massive value is expected to move through the ledger, as well as using the RLUSD stablecoin as collateral for brokerage services. Additionally, Hidden Road will be able to expand its capacity for value transfer, allowing Ripple to process even more volume. “With this deal and the backing of Ripple’s significant balance sheet, Hidden Road will exponentially expand its capacity to service its pipeline and become the largest non-bank prime broker globally,” Garlinghouse’s post read. This acquisition comes after Ripple acquired Standard Custody back in February 2024. Standard Custody provided an online platform offering clients digital asset custody solutions, enabling Ripple to move into the custody market as well. XRP Price Responds Despite the Ripple announcement, the XRP price has remained muted as it continues to struggle below $2, which has since turned to resistance. At the time of writing, XRP is still holding at $1.96, despite its almost 10% in the last 24 hours.

This suggests a decline in participation from investors, due to the bearish headwinds that continue to blow through the crypto market. A recovery from here is highly dependent on Bitcoin, which continues to dominate the market and lead the charge. Chart from Tradingview.com

XRP has been navigating a volatile consolidation phase since late January, shedding over 40% of its value from its most recent all-time high. While the broader crypto market has struggled under the weight of macroeconomic uncertainty, XRP has managed to outperform many altcoins during this downturn. Several major altcoins have lost more than 60% of their value during the same period, highlighting XRP’s relative strength despite the ongoing correction. Related Reading: Chainlink Weekly Indicator Flashes Buy Signal – Can Bulls Hold $13.20 Support? Global financial markets remain under pressure, with inflation concerns, geopolitical tensions, and interest rate uncertainty fueling a risk-off environment. These macro factors continue to ripple through the crypto space, dragging down sentiment and slowing momentum across most digital assets. However, on-chain data from Santiment has revealed an interesting development for XRP. The MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) Ratio has just dipped below its 200-day moving average — a crossover that historically signals a potential macro trend shift. This could be an early indication of a possible accumulation phase or a deeper correction, depending on how price reacts in the coming weeks. With volatility high and sentiment mixed, XRP’s ability to hold its ground and respond to key on-chain signals will be crucial in determining its next move. XRP Holds Above $2 as Market Tension Builds XRP is currently facing a crucial test as it hovers just above the $2 mark — a key psychological and structural support level. Analysts warn that if this level fails to hold, it could trigger a steep correction and send XRP into a deeper downtrend. The market is on edge, with sentiment growing increasingly split and volatile. Some investors remain optimistic, arguing that XRP is positioned to reclaim its range highs once macro conditions stabilize and market confidence returns. They point to XRP’s relative strength in recent months compared to other altcoins, believing that any recovery across crypto could quickly lift XRP back into its previous trading range. However, others are more cautious, pointing to weakening momentum and uncertain price structure. A growing number of analysts believe XRP may be entering a new bearish phase, particularly if the $2 support fails. Adding to this tension, top analyst Ali Martinez shared insights on X highlighting a key on-chain development: the XRP MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) Ratio has dipped below its 200-day moving average. Historically, this crossover has signaled a potential macro trend shift in price action. While not inherently bearish, it often precedes major directional moves — up or down. As XRP teeters on the edge, this MVRV signal may prove crucial in determining the next leg. If bulls can hold $2 and reclaim momentum, XRP could recover swiftly. If not, a bearish outlook could materialize quickly. The coming days may define the trajectory of XRP for the rest of the quarter. XRP Bulls Fight to Hold Key Support XRP is trading at $2.13 after several days of sustained selling pressure, marking a decline of over 21% since March 19. The recent downturn has put bulls on the defensive, with the $2 level now acting as a critical support zone. If XRP fails to hold above this mark, it could confirm a shift toward a bearish trend and open the door to further downside in the short term. For bulls to regain momentum, defending $2 is essential — but holding support alone won’t be enough. XRP must also reclaim the $2.40 resistance level, which has acted as a ceiling during recent attempts to break higher. A successful move above $2.40 could reignite bullish sentiment and potentially push XRP toward new all-time highs. However, the broader market remains fragile, and investor confidence is shaky amid macroeconomic uncertainty. A breakdown below $2 would likely trigger increased selling pressure and confirm that the recent upswing was only a temporary bounce within a larger corrective structure.

XRP has been on a consistent downward trend since the beginning of the just concluded week. A steady flow of consecutive bearish candles on the daily timeframe has pulled the price lower each day, eventually guiding it toward an important support at the time of writing. Related Reading: Bitcoin And Ethereum Face $14 Billion Options Expiry—Market Impact Ahead? As of now, XRP is pressing against the lower boundary of a symmetrical triangle, which could determine whether this dip becomes a deeper fall or the start of a rebound for the cryptocurrency. Symmetrical Triangle Support In Focus The symmetrical triangle on XRP’s daily chart is not a new pattern, but the way its price is currently interacting with its lower trendline is setting the stage for what could be a significant move. This interesting phenomenon was noted by a crypto analyst on the TradingView platform, who highlighted this technical zone as a critical decision point for XRP. As shown in the chart below, the symmetrical triangle has been forming gradually since January, with the price oscillating between a sequence of lower highs and higher lows. This has led to a tightening range that hints at an impending breakout or breakdown. The pattern’s base support line has been tested on three separate occasions over the past couple of months, each time resulting in a bounce upward. However, the persistence of retests also means the current retest might be broken easily. Where Can XRP Go From Here? If XRP manages to hold its ground at this support level and attract buying interest, a bounce could be on the cards. A successful rebound from this trendline might trigger a move toward the triangle’s upper boundary, which is acting as resistance. Such a rally wouldn’t just keep the triangle intact, but it could also bring in bullish sentiment after four weeks of selling pressure. Still, the strength of any bounce will likely hinge on the accompanying trading volume. A bounce without a strong trading volume could result in a fake breakout. However, the opposite scenario is just as likely. If XRP closes the daily candlestick below this support level, it would confirm a breakdown from the triangle structure, opening the door to further downside. As the analyst noted, “losing support may lead to further downside pressure.” A breakdown would not only invalidate the consolidation structure but could also trigger stop-loss orders below support. Given the lack of immediate strong support beneath the current zone, XRP might face a strong decline to $2 if the support level fails to hold.

Interestingly, the price dipped slightly below the lower boundary of the triangle earlier in the day. However, this move was quickly met with buying pressure, pushing the price action back into the triangle’s range. This small yet important action shows that bulls are still active at this level.

The pattern, which has been developing since early March, is now in the final stages of forming the second shoulder. As such, this phase might still see further short-term downside, as XRP potentially dips again to complete the structure of the second shoulder before a breakout rally. If confirmed, the inverse head and shoulders would lead to a strong bullish reversal, which is going to be significant given XRP’s recent price retracement. According to Egrag Crypto, the measured move from the completion of this formation could send the price to a price range between $3.7 and $3.9. Analyst Says XRP Could Reach All-Time High In 90 To 120 Days The inverse head and shoulder analysis is part of a bullish outlook that suggests that the XRP price can reach a new all-time high within the next 90 to 120 days. This prediction, also made by Egrag Crypto, is based on a recurring pattern observed in XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) across past bull markets. He pointed out that during the 2017 and 2021 cycles, the RSI indicator on XRP exhibited two distinct peaks, with the second peak coming between 90 to 120 days after the first peak. The second RSI peak in 2017 occurred about 120 days after the first peak. A similar scenario occurred in 2021, although the interval between the first and second RSI highs was shorter at just 90 days. This trend sets the stage for a historic surge that could align with the breakout from the current inverse head and shoulders setup. So far in this cycle, XRP has already completed its first RSI peak, reaching as high as 85.17 toward the end of 2024. Following that, the RSI has been on a long cooldown phase, dipping to a low of 65. At the time of writing, the RSI sits around 66, and a bounce is expected from here, which is to peak sometime around June.

If the trend plays out again within the next 90 to 120 days, XRP’s RSI could peak again around June. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.12, down by 4.7% in the past 24 hours.

XRP is facing a pivotal moment after failing to test the $2.60 resistance level, with price action now leaning toward critical demand. The token continues to trade sideways in a wide range, reflecting growing uncertainty as the broader crypto market faces renewed selling pressure. Despite a strong performance in recent weeks, bulls are struggling to maintain momentum, and the inability to push higher has left XRP vulnerable to further consolidation or downside. Related Reading: XRP Open Interest Has Surged 36% In Two Weeks – Is Momentum Building? The market’s overall risk-off sentiment is making it difficult for altcoins like XRP to establish a clear direction. Investors remain cautious, and bulls must now defend key support zones to avoid triggering a deeper correction. XRP is approaching a critical demand area that could determine its short-term trajectory. Crypto analyst, Ali Martinez, shared insights on X, pointing to a potential bullish scenario if XRP can break above the $3 mark. According to Martinez, such a move would invalidate the current head-and-shoulders pattern forming on the chart, effectively flipping the outlook in favor of the bulls. XRP Faces Key Breakout Test Amid Market Uncertainty XRP is approaching a critical point in its price structure, where a breakout above key levels could trigger a major uptrend. However, investors remain cautious, with many worried that the current setup may be a bull trap — especially given the unstable macro environment. Since late January, financial markets have faced growing turbulence, fueled by trade war fears and erratic policy behavior from U.S. President Donald Trump. This uncertainty has weighed heavily on risk assets, including cryptocurrencies, and continues to prevent clear trend formation across the board. XRP’s price action reflects this broader market indecision. While the token has shown resilience, it remains locked in a wide range, unable to build sustained bullish momentum. The recent failure to break above the $2.60 resistance level has added to investor concern, as selling pressure appears to be creeping back into the market. Martinez weighed in on the situation, highlighting a technical level that could define XRP’s short-term trajectory. According to Martinez, if XRP can break above the $3 mark, it would invalidate the current head-and-shoulders pattern forming on the chart — a pattern typically associated with trend reversals. Such a move would flip the market outlook bullish and open the door for a major rally. Until that breakout occurs, however, the head-and-shoulders structure remains in play, and downside risks cannot be ignored. Investors are watching closely as XRP trades near critical support and resistance levels, knowing that the next breakout or breakdown could shape its direction for weeks to come. For now, XRP remains caught in a tight battle between bearish pressure and bullish potential. Related Reading: Avalanche 12-Hour TD Sequential Flashes Sell Signal After Nailing 50% Rally – Details Bulls Defend Key Support at $2.20 XRP is currently trading at $2.22 after losing the critical $2.40 level, which aligns with both the 4-hour 200 moving average (MA) and the exponential moving average (EMA). This breakdown has weakened short-term momentum, placing bulls in a defensive position as selling pressure begins to build. The $2.20 level now stands as a key support zone that must be defended to avoid a deeper correction. To regain strength and shift momentum back in favor of the bulls, XRP must reclaim the $2.35 level in the coming sessions. A move above this resistance zone would indicate renewed buying interest and potentially trigger a push back toward the $2.60 range. Until then, price action remains fragile, with investors watching closely for confirmation. Related Reading: Solana Tags Upper Bollinger Band For First Time Since ATH — Is Momentum Returning? However, if XRP fails to hold above $2.20, the market could see a sharp drop toward the $2.00 mark — a psychological and structural support level that has held in previous corrections. Such a move would likely confirm bearish dominance in the short term and further delay any potential breakout. As volatility continues to build, the next few hours could be crucial for XRP’s short-term trend direction. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

XRP is trading above key support levels after several days of intense volatility driven by macroeconomic concerns and mounting trade war fears. Since March 11, XRP has jumped more than 35%, showing signs of renewed strength as bulls attempt to reclaim higher price levels and ignite a fresh rally. The move comes at a time when broader altcoin sentiment remains fragile, with no clear direction for the market in the weeks ahead. Related Reading: Ethereum Reclaims Realized Price – Bulls Face Strong Resistance At $2,300 Despite the uncertain landscape, XRP’s recent price action has caught the attention of traders and analysts alike. One of the more notable developments is the sharp rise in capital flowing into XRP futures. According to on-chain data from Glassnode, total capital allocated to XRP futures contracts has surged 36% in just two weeks. This increase in open interest points to rising trader confidence and suggests that many are positioning for more upside. Still, macro headwinds and technical resistance levels pose challenges. For XRP to maintain momentum, bulls must hold current levels and continue pushing toward key breakouts. With volatility likely to remain high, all eyes are on XRP’s next move as market pressure continues to mount. XRP Bulls Eye Breakout Amid Market Uncertainty XRP is at a pivotal moment, with price action showing early signs of strength that could lead to a major breakout — if bulls manage to reclaim key levels. After a 35% surge since March 11, the token now faces strong resistance zones that could either trigger a powerful rally or confirm investor fears of a bull trap. The broader market context only adds to the uncertainty. Since late January, financial markets — including crypto — have been shaken by growing trade war concerns and erratic policy signals from U.S. President Donald Trump. This instability has made traders more cautious, with many questioning whether current altcoin gains can be sustained. Selling pressure remains a threat, and failure to hold support levels could quickly reverse recent progress. Despite these concerns, XRP’s on-chain and derivatives data suggest that bullish momentum is building. Top analyst Ali Martinez shared on X that the total capital allocated to XRP futures contracts has surged 36% in just two weeks, rising from $2.12 billion to $2.89 billion. This spike in open interest reflects increased confidence from traders and suggests that many are positioning for further upside. However, confirmation is still needed. XRP must reclaim critical resistance zones and sustain its gains to avoid a deeper pullback. Related Reading: Solana Tags Upper Bollinger Band For First Time Since ATH — Is Momentum Returning? Bulls Defend Key Support At $2.25 XRP is currently trading at $2.35 after several days of failed attempts to break above the $2.60 resistance level. This price zone has proven difficult to overcome, with repeated rejections keeping the bullish momentum in check. For XRP to initiate a strong upward move, bulls must reclaim $2.60 with conviction — a breakout that could trigger a surge toward the upper boundary of its current range. On the higher timeframe, XRP remains locked in a clear weekly range between the $2 support level and the $3.40 resistance. This range has defined price action for weeks, and traders are closely watching for a breakout in either direction. The $2.60 level sits just below the mid-range, making it a critical point for bulls to reclaim in order to gain control of the trend. Related Reading: Ethereum Accumulation Is Almost Over – Breakout Above $2,200 Could Trigger Expansion Phase However, if bulls fail to hold the $2.25 support zone, a move back toward the bottom of the range is likely. A breakdown below $2.25 could open the door for a retest of the $2 level — a key psychological and structural support. Until then, XRP’s next major move hinges on whether buyers can push past resistance or fold under renewed selling pressure. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Blockchain technology is receiving a boost with the XRP Ledger, based on recent findings from industry observers. The system has handled over 2.8 billion transactions without any security failure, which has caught the eye of financial institutions globally. Related Reading: XRP Breakout On Hold? Financial Expert Reveals What’s Missing Institutions Are Taking Notice According to Jasmine Cooper, RippleX Head of Product, the effectiveness of XRPL is one of the major reasons institutional investors are drawn to it. Institutional asset issuers and investors are using XRPL more because of its speed and reliability. For example, OpenEden has recently hit milestones in tokenizing US Treasury bills on the platform. Institutional investors are purchasing these tokenized assets that desire access to on-chain financial instruments. BlackRock, the global asset management titan, is also making a push into asset tokenization, lining up with XRPL’s platform. Regulated exchanges like Archax are even listing tokenized assets created on the ledger, and it’s becoming more acceptable to mainstream financial institutions. XRP Ledger Adoption is Surging! Institutions, DeFi, Stablecoins, Tokenization Jasmine Cooper, Head of Product at RippleX, joined me to discuss the latest and the greatest with the XRP Ledger. 02:34 Jasmine’s background 04:43 Real Estate on Blockchain 06:18 RippleX overview… pic.twitter.com/HkC2ubbflA — Tony Edward (Thinking Crypto Podcast) (@ThinkingCrypto1) March 23, 2025 Real Estate Gears Up For Blockchain XRPL is revolutionizing the way people buy and sell real estate by enabling tokenization. Firms such as Propy utilize it to facilitate automatic property sales, minimizing paperwork and accelerating transactions. This facilitates real estate trading and makes it more accessible. This change might have a huge effect on an industry that is normally sluggish and convoluted. Through blockchain, XRPL assists in making transactions easy yet secure and reliable. DeFi Growing On XRPL DeFi on XRPL is gaining traction, owing to fresh technology such as the Automated Market Maker (AMM). The functionality allows traders to exchange assets and provide liquidity directly on the blockchain, eliminating the role of centralized exchanges. RippleX is also looking to simplify XRPL for developers. The firm is introducing an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) sidechain that enables developers to create Ethereum-based smart contracts with the advantage of XRPL’s low-cost, high-speed transactions. This element is likely to have more DeFi projects hitting the ledger and improve its connectivity with other blockchain networks.
