XRP leverage drops to 0.1, price holds $1.40 amid divergence
XRP holds $1.38–$1.40 while Binance’s estimated leverage ratio sinks to ~0.1. CryptoQuant flags a price–leverage divergence that often ends with a squeeze.
XRP trades in a tight range near $1.38–$1.40. NewsBTC tracks the range and notes rising attention on derivatives signals here. CryptoQuant’s Pelinay shows leverage moving sideways at low levels while price stays firm, a setup that historically resolves with an explosive move here.
Binance’s Estimated Leverage Ratio sits around 0.1, back to late‑2024 readings here. Price did not drop with it and remains near $1.4. In October 2024, a 0.1 ratio matched roughly $0.50 for XRP here.
Derivatives flows look reset. Aggressive borrowed positioning no longer drives price here.
What resolves the divergence:
A recent pattern shows the second path. Late June to mid‑July 2025, leverage climbed from <0.3 to <0.6 in four weeks. XRP jumped from $1.96 to $3.65 in that span here.
Egrag Crypto’s monthly chart points to compression. Price sits near the lower wedge. A $0.90 zone may be a trap. A bullish path aims above $1.80 here.
