XRP Price Decline Continues Despite Spot ETF Launch and Whale Activity
The XRP price has struggled in 2025, declining from its all-time high of $3.65 in July. Despite the launch of spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US, intended to boost demand, they have not alleviated bearish pressure.
XRP Price Analysis
- Analyst PelinayPA highlights whale activity as a key factor in XRP's price decline.
- Exchange Inflow – Value Bands chart shows significant inflows from 100K-1M and 1M+ XRP bands.
- Price forms lower highs and lows due to supply outpacing demand.
- First major support zone is at $1.82 – $1.87, but could drop to $1.50 – $1.60 if inflows persist.
XRP ETFs and Whale Activity
- Similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, XRP ETFs were expected to drive institutional demand.
- XRP price is nearly 50% down from its previous peak.
- US-based spot XRP ETFs maintain a net asset value over $1.14 billion without negative outflows since launch.
- Whales reportedly sold holdings as ETF expectations grew, impacting price stability.
Current XRP price is approximately $1.90, reflecting a 3% increase in the past day.
