Why XRP is down 1.4% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP fell 1.4% over the past hour amid a broader “market downturn” narrative highlighted by U.Today, which noted that XRP’s price was weak even as XRPL payments spiked 200%—suggesting on-chain activity wasn’t enough to offset bearish sentiment in the short term. U.Today also pointed to an eye-catching -8,423.43% change in XRP futures flow but emphasized it was “literally nothing,” implying futures activity provided little support or conviction during the move.
